The ship’s presence in the Mediterranean Sea is a demonstration of the United States continued commitment to the collective security of the region.

“The crew of Gonzalez is looking forward to furthering our country’s relationship with the nation of Cyprus, as well as experiencing culture of Larnaca” said Cmdr. Christopher Schwarz, commanding officer of Gonzalez.

Strengthening partnerships during the port visit to Larnaca builds enduring relationships and emphasizes our shared commitment to promoting security and stability within the region, while seeking opportunities to enhance our interoperability with regional partners and members of the NATO alliance.
