Abstract
Public trust in national government in the Republic of Cyprus steadily and significantly declined, especially since 2008. Data from the period between 2001 and 2013 suggests that there may be three reasons for this decline. Firstly, the economic situation may explain a large portion of the variance in public trust in government. Secondly, disagreements over the Cyprus problem negotiations may have translated into mistrust towards a specific incumbent, Dimitris Christofias, who was largely considered to be mishandling the negotiations. Thirdly, a catastrophic explosion in the village of Mari, followed by extensive blaming of the President as mainly responsible for the incident may have also contributed to the declining trust in government.
