The dialogue between Athens and Nicosia on the provision of a Greek government aircraft for the travel needs of the President of the Republic and government officials is currently underway, abroad.

The whole issue was published by the newspaper "Kathimerini". A government source told the Cyprus[/B] Times that there is a proposal from the Greek government to provide a plane for use, which is being discussed, while clarifying that it is not a purchase.

"We are not talking about a purchase, it is expected that it will be given for use but we still don't know how," the government source said.

According to the same source, the Athens-Lekosia talks are at an initial stage

and it is expected that there will be a conclusion within the next few months. As far as the maintenance of the aircraft is concerned, it is expected that this will be done by the Greek government, although this issue has not yet been "locked".

It is noted that Greece has 4 government aircraft in its fleet, one of which is of Falcon type and is used as a VIP.
