Nicosia is seeking support from the European Union in an effort to bring about the demographic regeneration of its rural areas.
The initiative was announced in a statement by the republic’s minister for agriculture Maria Panayiotou, who was in Brussels, where she was attending a meeting of the Agriculture and Fisheries Council of the EU on Monday.
