Cyprus is in the German plans to relocate German troops from the Incirlik base to Turkey in the fight against the jihadists.
RIK correspondent in Berlin George Pappas reported that the German government has been looking for alternatives to the issue for a long time, after the gradual deterioration of relations with Ankara.
German publications refer to eight different locations in various neighboring countries, including the Republic of Cyprus.
About seven hundred German soldiers as well as German fighter jets are stationed at Incirlik base, assisting the international coalition in its fight against Islamic State.
