Cyprus’ Defence Minister Vasilis Palmas on Tuesday said the relationship with Greece is safeguarded and this was today demonstrated in practice with the support sent from the Greek Government. He was speaking during a visit alongside his Greek counterpart, Nikos Dendias to the “Andreas Papandreou” Air Base in Paphos, that hosts four F-16 fighter jets sent by Athens following a request by Cyprus’ President Nikos Christodoulides.
