President Nikos Christodoulides said on Sunday that Iran “has asked us to convey a message to Israel”, and that “we will do so”, amid an escalating conflict between the two countries which saw missile strikes which were visible to the naked eye across Cyprus overnight. Speaking to journalists, he said he will hold a telephone call with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu later on Sunday and pointed out that Foreign Minister Constantinos Kombos has requested that the European Union’s foreign affairs council convene in light of the ongoing developments. “The telephone communications will continue. Let me remind you that we were asked by Iran to convey some messages to Israel, so, today, I will speak with [Netanyahu]. That was scheduled for last night, but due to the chaotic situation, it could not happen,” he said. He added that he is also due to speak with Egyptian President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen later in the day. Our goal is to end this situation, which does not lead to any result, and does not lead to the resolution of any differences,” he said. In addition, he said he had asked European Council President Antonio Costa to “address the issue” at the forthcoming G7 summit, which is set to take place in Canada’s Alberta province, while also criticising the European Union’s response so far. I want to say it publicly. I also expressed dissatisfaction with the fact that the EU was slow to react. We saw a joint statement which came out yesterday after the phone call with [Costa], there were one or two states which disagreed with the wording,” he said. “It is not possible for the EU to claim a geopolitical role, to see all these developments and not to have at the least, at the absolute minimum, a convening of its council of foreign ministers. So, we have requested this from the EU … and I believe that one will be held.” Then asked whether he is exerting pressure on countries such as the United Kingdom with the aim of persuading them not to get involved in the conflict, he said that “it is not a matter of exerting pressure or inciting anyone”. “We have a role in the region. What characterises the Republic of Cyprus? The Republic of Cyprus is characterised by the fact that it speaks to all the countries in the region. We have been asked to convey a message. We will do so. This is why the telephone conversation with [Netanyahu] will take place,” he said. He then touched on the matter of the British bases in Cyprus and reiterated the words of the UK’s permanent representative at the United Nations Barbara Woodward on Saturday. “As far as the British bases are concerned, the British have publicly stated more than once that the British bases have not been used,” he said, before returning to his own role and that of his government in developments. “The role of the Republic of Cyprus in the region, I want to reiterate, as well as our characteristic, is that we will talk to everyone and to the best of our ability … we try to convey messages, to create the conditions so that this difficult state of affairs can be ended,” he said. https://cyprus-mail.com/2025/06/15/iran-asked-us-to-convey-a-message-to-israel-and-we-will https://english.alarabiya.net/News/middle-east/2025/06/15/cyprus-says-asked-by-iran-to-convey-some-messages-to-israel- https://english.aawsat.com/world/5154558-cyprus-says-it-has-been-asked-iran-convey-some-messages-israel 1 Like

Don't think Israel is ready to listen to anyone at the time, they will continue the war. iram is running out of options every day. Iran is running out of missiles they have been firing rockets without precision to civilians buildings and not hitting any single Israel military target or base or arm depot to weaken the Israeli military like Israel has done to Iranian military targes and key infrastructurs, now Iran can't reproduce any missile at the moment , all their missiles factories have all be destroyed by Israel , Israel has destroyed thousands of Iranian missiles stockpiles/warehouses now Israel has strategically destroyed their almost all their fuel and gas depots and their refineries, in few days the Iranian economy will completely collapse without fuel and gas. Regime change is the end game of Israel similar to what's they did to Bashir Assad in Syria some months ago 5 Likes 1 Share

Commentor:If you know what's good for you (if any), you should be thankful that Israel's new name today is the savior of the world, nuclear weapon in the hands of terrorist Iran is a danger to the whole world. Iran is world number one enemy the largest sponsor or terrorism they don't do direct fight and never intended to fight from homeland reason why all these blunders, attacking civilians' populations among others are clear indication that they never intended to fight direct war. coward Iran never intended to bring war to homeland reason why they spend heavily sponsoring and assembling breakaway hooligans who fought against their countries and tear-out a massive land where they practice terrorism with Israel and other regional powers as the main targets. Saudi Arabia, UAE, Jordan, Egypt, Qarter etc are all with Israel, so who are you? 3 Likes |

Commentor:Yes exactly the point, Iran cannot be allowed to have even a single nuclear warhead. Nuclear weapons are not for warmongering or terrorism financing states like Iran. Saudi, UAE and other peaceful Islamic countries can have for deterrence but not Iran! |

Commentor:Houthis, Hamas, Hezbollah and a host of other extremists terrorists groups are directly funded by Iran...even their Shiites followers in Nigeria are terrorists. |

dederocs:The Islamic Resistance Movement, abbreviated Hamas (the Arabic acronym from Arabic: حركة المقاومة الإسلامية, romanized: Ḥarakat al-Muqāwamah al-ʾIslāmiyyah), is a Palestinian nationalist Sunni Islamist political organisation with a military wing, the Qassam Brigades. You say Iranians are Shiites which I agree with. Please explain the above. |

Commentor:The Islamic regime led by the Ayatollahs have always maintained that there primary goal is the destruction of Israel. And that, my friend, is the reason why Israel and the west will not allow Iran to have nuclear weapons. |
| Re: Cyprus Says It Has Been Asked By Iran To Convey 'some Messages' To Israel by dederocs(m): 7:09pm On Jun 15, 2025 |
Commentor:Are you living in a hole or being mischievous, even Iran has personally stated their support for Hamas. Hezbollah the creation of Iran as well as Houthis went into conflict with Israel because of Hamas, Hamas is the reason they went to war with Israel. There are violent sects in both Sunni and Shiite, the violence extremists Islamic creed, and their hatred for Israel unites them, for them it's a fight for Islam against Zionist, or you didn't hear of 6 days war when the Islamic nations across the world came together to fight Israel? You people always come together when it comes to others, it's normal, even though you kill yourselves. Sound reasonable, stop sounding like a kid. |
