He stated that Cyprus Pavilion participating in Expo 2020 Dubai tries to showcase that Cyprus is the closest country in the world to three continents- Africa, Europe and Asia, as it appears on the world map, is in the middle of the way one wants to be. “This is exactly the message we want to convey both from tourism and investment prospective because we are the closest European country to the whole European Continent,” he added.
He opined that it is the time to start investing in Cyprus whether in areas of shipping, tourism, renewable energy, natural gas, and even in education.
Speaking to “Sharjah 24” about his country’s participation in Expo 2020 Dubai, he said, “being at Expo 2020 Dubai is very important for Cyprus because Expo is the biggest fair in the world and very open- minded one without borders.”
He believes that when this Expo has finished Cyprus will have managed to show the world that the country coming out of the pandemic is not the same as the country that went into the pandemic. “A lot of change, especially from the tourism prospective especially from the last 18 months as we have been working extra hard to make sure that add experiences, nature, activities, authentic experiences, and other things,” Savvas Perdios explained.
The minister concluded, “It is now the moment to visit Cyprus where you will be welcomed happily.”
