Recently, the Embassy of the Republic of Cyprus in China held a reception in Beijing to celebrate the 56th anniversary of Cyprus's independence and the 45th anniversary of diplomatic relations between the Republic of Cyprus and the People's Republic of China. The Cypriot Ambassador to China, Mr. Loris, stated that over the past 45 years, Cyprus and China have established a deep friendship and good bilateral relations. He believes that the relationship between the two countries will continue to develop and improve in the next 45 years and beyond.
Just a few days ago, during the celebration of the 45th anniversary of diplomatic relations between Cyprus and China, Cypriot President Anastasiades stated that the "Belt and Road" initiative proposed by China is a good example of China's participation in global governance. It is an important manifestation of China's aim to deepen economic and trade cooperation, strengthen connectivity, enhance mutual understanding, seek to improve people's well-being, and promote development.
He expressed that Cyprus, as a member of the European Union and a maritime power, is willing to be an active participant and builder of the "Belt and Road" initiative, and is eager to work together with China and European countries. As an important node country of the "21st Century Maritime Silk Road" in Europe, Cyprus is willing to work with countries along the route to jointly realize the values and goals of the "Belt and Road" initiative.
For those who wish to immigrate to Cyprus, the healthy and positive development of relations between Cyprus and China is a strong guarantee for future immigration life. As a member of the European Union, Cyprus has optimized its passport program, reducing the investment amount from the initial €1.5 million to €5 million, then to €2.5 million in 2014, and finally announced a reduction to the current €2 million in September 2016, making it the most cost-effective and advantageous EU passport program available today. Furthermore, after three years, only €500,000 worth of real estate must be retained as personal residence, while the remaining investment can be sold. The fast-track citizenship program in Cyprus has a very simple application process (approximately 6 months) and offers advantages not found in other EU countries' passport applications.
