“It would be a disaster if our candidate didn’t make it to the second round,” says the former Deputy President of DISY

Clear warnings that elections cannot be won with a fragmented center-right, Glafkos Clerides, President of the Institute, stresses that an internal party candidate selection process must not be allowed to undermine the unity of the political bloc.

Haris Georgiadis emphasizes the need for political processes and the building of partnerships ahead of the presidential election, stressing that the foundation for a healthy and long-term partnership between DISY and DIKO is in place.

Describing the President of the Republic’s search for ministers from both the right and the left as a sign of political weakness, he argues that the government’s abysmal handling of the Raouna case does a disservice to the Deputy Minister herself.

The former Minister of Finance states that he filed a complaint with the Anti-Corruption Authority regarding the “State Mafia” case, admits that the investigations into Nicos Anastasiades are a matter of concern for the Democratic Rally, and reveals that the former President of the Republic promised the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to Nicos Christodoulides a month and a half before the 2018 elections.
