Kombos meets new US ambassador Breslow to discuss Cyprus-US cooperation
Foreign Minister Constantinos Kombos and new US Ambassador John Breslow discussed advancing Cyprus-US strategic cooperation.
Nicosia, Cyprus. Foreign Minister Constantinos Kombos held his first meeting with newly appointed US Ambassador to Cyprus John Breslow, focusing on strengthening the strategic partnership between Cyprus and the United States.
The meeting at the foreign ministry covered political dialogue, security and defence, energy, economic cooperation, law enforcement and people-to-people ties.
Strategic partnership
In a post on X, Kombos described the meeting as “good and productive”, saying the two sides reaffirmed the strength of Cyprus-US relations and their shared commitment to further advancing cooperation.
Kombos said they also discussed ways to deepen Cyprus-US regional cooperation and contribute further to “peace, security and stability in the Eastern Mediterranean and the broader region”.
New ambassador
Breslow, a businessman and former Nebraska state auditor, was nominated by US President Donald Trump and confirmed by the US Senate on August 7.
Unlike recent US ambassadors in Nicosia, Breslow comes to the post from outside the US diplomatic service. During his Senate confirmation hearing in April, Senate Foreign Relations Committee chairman Jim Risch described him as the first political, non-career appointee to serve as US ambassador to Cyprus.
