Cyprus will very soon sign the agreement that will support the global ocean observation system, said President of the Republic Nikos Christodoulides, while also welcoming the launch of the international OceanEye Alliance.
In his remarks, President Christodoulides noted that, “as an island nation in the Mediterranean, Cyprus recognizes the vital link between the health of the oceans and the well-being, security, resilience, and prosperity of its citizens.”
He welcomed the launch of the OceanEye Alliance, expressing his conviction that it represents a very important step toward ensuring reliable and sustained global ocean observation.
In this context, the President of the Republic announced that Cyprus will proceed very soon to sign the relevant Convention, and, as he noted, is ready to contribute through its national scientific, research, and technical capabilities, as well as through enhanced cooperation and data sharing.
“There is only one ocean—it is vast, interconnected, and essential to life on Earth,” said President Christodoulides, adding that Cyprus is ready to take on a leading regional role, collaborate on a global level, and support efforts toward a resilient and healthy ocean.
