France and Cyprus have a new plan. They signed a partnership agreement. This is to help them work together more. The agreement was made in Paris.
The plan will help them in defence and energy. This is important because there are problems nearby. The two countries want to be good friends. They will work together closely. A special paper will help them work together better. It will help France use a base in Cyprus. This will make Cyprus stronger.
This partnership is not only for soldiers. They will also work on new ideas. They will work on the environment and schools. They want to be strong together. The president of Cyprus said France is a good partner.
Energy is very important. Cyprus has oil and gas. A French company works there. Cyprus is happy about this. They will also work on the sea.
This is because of world problems. Both countries want to be safe. There could be fighting nearby. This agreement makes Cyprus safer. They want to be safe together.
