The composition of the Cyprus Group, which will participate in the 3+1 Interparliamentary Dialogue, was finalized today. The group will include members from the three parliamentary groups in the House of Representatives. Mr Harris Georgiades and Mr Nikos Tornaritis will participate on behalf of the Parliamentary Group of the Democratic Rally, Mr Giorgos Loukaides and Mr Aristos Damianou on behalf of the Parliamentary Group of AKEL-Left-New Forces and Mr Nicolas Papadopoulos and Ms Christiana Erotokritou on behalf of the Parliamentary Group of the Democratic Party.
The 3+1 Inter-Parliamentary Cooperation between the House of Representatives, the Greek Parliament, the Parliament of Israel and the Congress of the United States of America is a continuation of the governmental cooperation between the Republic of Cyprus, the Hellenic Republic, the State of Israel and the United States.
As previously announced, the Foreign Ministers of the Republic of Cyprus, the Hellenic Republic, the State of Israel and the United States, in a teleconference held on 9 May 2022, reaffirmed their joint commitment to promoting peace, stability and prosperity in the Eastern Mediterranean through the 3+1 format. They also decided to intensify their cooperation in the fields of energy, economy, climate action, as well as emergency preparedness and counter-terrorism, contributing to resilience, energy security and interconnectivity in the region through a roadmap with concrete objectives for the coming year.
The first meeting of the four parliamentary groups under the 3+1 Inter-Parliamentary Cooperation is planned for 2022, either online or physically in Washington DC. It should be noted that Senator Menendez is part of the six-member congressional team.
