There's some significant geopolitical intrigue surrounding Cyprus -- probably the most obvious are its partition between between Turkey and Greece and its use as a tax haven by Russian oligarchs.

There's also "equipment" on Cyprus. I know a fiber-optic specialist who spent some time there working on a Five Eyes project for the UK.

See, e.g.: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Akrotiri_and_Dhekelia
