 　　NICOSIA, Sept. 12 (Xinhua) -- Russia and Cyprus signed an agreement restructuring a 2.5-billion-euro (3.3-billion-U.S. dollar) loan, the Cypriot government said in a statement on Thursday.

　　The statement said the restructuring provides for the repayment1 of the loan in eight six-monthly installments2 starting in 2018, instead of a one-off repayment in 2016.
　　It also provides for lowering the interest to 2.5 percent from its original level of 4.5 percent, with effect as of last March.
　　The restructuring agreement was signed in Moscow by Russian Deputy Finance Minister Sergey Storchak and Cypriot Finance Minister Haris Georgiades.
　　The loan was obtained by Cyprus in December 2011, as the government at that time desperately3 tried to delay or entirely4 avoid a bailout.
　　However, it finally had to apply for bailout in June 2012, after the Cypriot banks took a hit on account of their exposure to the write-down of Greek debts.
　　The 10-billion-euro bailout deal agreed with the Eurogroup and the International Monetary5 Fund in March involved the recapitalization of the island's largest lender, Bank of Cyprus by using 47.5 percent of deposits over 100,000 euros and the winding6 down of the second largest lender.
　　Many Russian and Ukrainian depositors who lost money in the recapitalization have become shareholders7 having a controlling share of the bank's equity8.
　　Cypriot President Nicos Anastasiades said in an interview with Russian Itar-Tass news agency on Thursday that the government intends to partly compensate9 the losses of Russian depositors as a gesture of appreciation10.
　　He said the Russians did not desert Cyprus despite bad decision which hurt them and they deserve to get back part of their money.
　　"Our friends have remained our friends," Anastasiades said.
　　He added that a special fund will be set up into which part of future proceeds from the sale of newly found natural gas will be channeled.
　　Six Russians are among the members of the newly elected board of Bank of Cyprus. A one-time colleague of Russian President Vladimir Putin at the KGB, Vladimir Stralskofski was elected vice-president of the board. (1 euro = 1.33 U.S. dollars)
