Nikiforos, which involves National Guard conscripts and thousands of reservists, was cancelled between 2001 and 2004 as a confidence-building measure during the UN-led reunification talks at the time.
Vežba Nikiforos koja uključuje regrute Nacionalne garde i hiljade pripadnika rezervnog sastava bila je otkazana između 2001. i 2004. godine kao mera za izgradnju poverenja tokom tadašnjih pregovora o ponovnom ujedinjenju koje su vodile UN.
