👉 The Cyprus Project, initiated by the European Union in 2004, aimed to foster economic and social development across Cyprus and the broader Eastern Mediterranean region. It focused on enhancing cross-border cooperation, particularly between the Greek Cypriot and Turkish Cypriot communities, to promote stability and prosperity. Key initiatives included infrastructure projects, such as the construction of roads and bridges, energy cooperation, and the development of tourism. The project also emphasized environmental sustainability and the creation of a common market for goods and services, aiming to integrate Cyprus more closely with its neighbors and strengthen its position as a regional hub.
