To eliminate certain limitations and exclusions regarding defense articles and requirements regarding security assistance and sales with respect to the Republic of Cyprus.

This bill seeks to remove existing restrictions and conditions on defense articles and security assistance for the Republic of Cyprus. It amends the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2020 by eliminating subsections that previously imposed limitations on the transfer of defense articles to Cyprus. Additionally, the legislation strikes specific subsections from the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961. These removed provisions typically included requirements or certifications that needed to be met before providing security assistance or facilitating defense sales to Cyprus, thereby easing current restrictions on such transactions.
