Updated: Oct 30, 2025

Summary

This bill proposes to modify existing U.S. law concerning the transfer of defense articles to the Republic of Cyprus. Specifically, it seeks to extend the duration of waivers for certain limitations on these transfers from one fiscal year to three fiscal years . The legislation amends both the Eastern Mediterranean Security and Energy Partnership Act of 2019 and the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2020. This change would allow for a longer period during which restrictions on providing defense articles and security assistance to Cyprus could be lifted, potentially strengthening defense cooperation and sales with the nation.
