Cypriot President Nicos Anastasiades said he was confident the European Union would take a tougher stance towards Turkey in offshore gas dispute
"I'm optimistic ... that the European Union will deliver stronger messages from what they have until today, and that is our objective," Anastasiades told reporters in Nicosia.
Cyprus on Monday threatened to block any agreement to admit new members to the European Union unless Brussels toughens its line towards Turkey over offshore drilling in the eastern Mediterranean.
