Averof Neophytou has all but announced his candidacy for the 2028 presidential election by making it official that his decision will be announced… in New York.
Speaking from the studio of the “Aichmes” program, Mr. Neophytou stated that his candidacy depends on what happens this weekend and developments in the Cyprus issue.
“God forbid that this weekend should be dark, gloomy, and deadlocked, with not a leaf stirring—in that case, Averof will be a candidate. If things start moving, we must all rally behind whatever leadership emerges so that we can see the glimmer of hope leading to a solution to the Cyprus problem.”
His statement comes two days after Anita Dimitriou announced to DISY officials her intention to seek the party’s nomination. What the former president did not clarify is whether he will run for president, regardless of whether he wins or loses the party primary.
