PtD: The cooperation with the Democratic Party is exemplary

The president of the Republic characterized the cooperation with the Democratic Party, in the context of his participation in the government, as exemplary.

This assessment, President Christodoulidis pointed out, is based on concrete results.

He made reference to the economy, which he said is strong with full employment conditions, to tax reform, the evaluation of teachers, immigration and the initiatives taken by the Republic of Cyprus at the international level.

Referring to the electrical interconnection and the criticisms made by the president of DIKO about the government's manipulations, the President of the Republic said that the position of the government is clear, noting that the project is approached as of geostrategic importance.

He said that in the morning he had a telephone conversation with the Prime Minister of Greece, with whom there is an agreement on the obligations arising for the implementation of the project and the update of the viability study.

He added that the consultations are in the final stage and possibly in the next 24 hours announcements will be made regarding the assignment of the relevant study.  

Also asked to comment on the statements of the Minister of Labor who referred to pre-election expediencies in the criticisms made by Nikolas Papadopoulos against the government, President Christodoulides stated that these are personal opinions, which do not represent the Government.

The statements of the President of the Republic were made during his visit to the premises of the Conference Center in Nicosia, which will host a large part of the events and activities of the Cyprus Presidency of the Council of the European Union.
