Cyprus President Nicos Anastasiades said that we should be reserved as regards prospects of attracting foreign investments in Cyprus.

“I hope that at some point we will have something positive to announce. We will not give up our efforts, either with the country we have visited or the countries we are planning to visit, with a view to achieve inflow of foreign capital into the country,” President Anastasiades told the media in statements on the sidelines of a visit at a military camp here.

Anastasiades said “there is great interest (for investments), but we are still at an exploratory stage. Let us not create illusions to the people. This is not our intention, neither is any false impression beneficial,” he noted, according to an official press release.

Asked about the expectations raised among the people with regard to foreign investments in Cyprus, he said that “we are not raising any expectations, we are constantly working towards attracting investments.”

“No one says you will always be successful even when you try and insist. We want us to be reserved. Each investor is interested to see that its investment will bear fruit. That is that we are exploring and we want, because Cyprus offers opportunities for investments,” he noted.
