Cyprus and Russia are discussing cooperation in the banking and energy sectors in addition to a loan, and any deal to solve the island’s debt crisis should also be in Moscow’s interests, the Cypriot finance minister said on Thursday.
“There’s a lot of teams now working on a number of issues. Banks, natural gas, are there opportunities (on which) we can base some cooperation and some support from Russia,” Finance Minister Michael Sarris told reporters in Moscow.
“We’ve asked for help clearly, but something that would make also economic sense for Russia.”
