The article examines the foreign policy strategies of the third President of the Republic of Cyprus, Georgios Vasiliou (1988-1993), through the prism of the anthropology of international relations. The main emphasis is on his attempts to resolve the Cyprus conflict and successfully integrate Cyprus into the EU. The analysis explores the interconnection of various factors in Cyprus’s foreign and domestic policies, which are related to the peculiarities of its political culture and internal party-political processes. The authors conclude that Vasiliou’s policy was largely shaped by the peculiarities of his personality, biography, education level, and overall political culture. The correctness of Cyprus’s European choice and Vasiliou’s leading role in this process is yet to be evaluated by future generations. It is this choice that allowed Cyprus to timely initiate the mechanisms of modernization, transforming it into a modern democratic and innovative state. The work incorporates littleknown biographical facts and materials from the Cyprian newspaper and personal interviews with the former president.

Статья рассматривает внешнеполитические стратегии третьего президента Республики Кипр Георгиоса Василиу (1988-1993 гг.) через призму антропологии международных отношений. Основное внимание уделяется попыткам решения кипрского конфликта и успешной интеграции Кипра в ЕС. Анализируется взаимосвязь ряда факторов внешней и внутренней политики Кипра, связанных с особенностями политической культуры и внутренними партийно-политическими процессами. Авторы приходят к выводу, что политика, проводившаяся Василиу, в значительной степени определялась особенностями его личности, биографией, уровнем образования, общей и политической культуры. Правильность европейского выбора и ведущую роль Василиу в этом процессе ещё предстоит оценить будущим поколениям. Именно это позволило Кипру своевременно запустить механизмы модернизации, сделавшие его современным инновационным государством. В работе использованы малоизвестные биографические факты и материалы нескольких личных интервью с экс-президентом.
