{{Politics of Cyprus}}
The President of [[Cyprus]] is the country's [[head of state]]. The position was created in [[1960]], after [[Cyprus]] gained its independence from the [[United Kingdom]]. Currently, the president of [[Cyprus]] is [[Tassos Papadopoulos]].
After the [[1974]] [[coup d'état]] of [[Nikos Sampson]], [[Turkey]] invaded Northern [[Cyprus]]; in [[1983]], the Turks created and recognized the [[de facto]] state [[Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus]]. Consequently, the [[President]] of [[Cyprus]] has not ruled the northern one-third of the island since 1974.
