The Cyprus Mail, founded in 1945, is a daily English-language newspaper covering Cypriot politics, business and economics, and local news from its headquarters in Nicosia. The publication has a particular focus on the island’s division between Greek and Turkish Cypriot communities since 1974 and ongoing reunification efforts. The newspaper describes itself as independent and unaffiliated with political parties; however, it has taken editorial positions on the Cyprus dispute that some have regarded as controversial, notably supporting the 2004 Annan Plan for reunification, a United Nations proposal that was overwhelmingly rejected by Greek Cypriots in a referendum. In 2019, the newspaper was acquired by Andreas Neocleous, a lawyer and public figure who was previously convicted of bribing a deputy attorney general.
