Greeks fleeing Ukraine could settle in Paphos, mayor suggests

Greek expats living in Ukraine’s Mariupol could settle in Paphos, the city’s mayor Phedonas Phedonos proposed on Sunday.

He suggested many Greeks living in Ukraine will be fleeing from Mariupol and Odesa to escape the war and could be welcomed to Cyprus, in a similar way that Greek Pontians from Georgia formerly settled.

The Greek expats could support employment needs in the city and could easily be integrated on the island, Phedonos added.
