AKEL: "Huge Scandal Centered on President Christodoulides" – Calls for Criminal Investigation

AKEL is describing the scandal involving President Christodoulides as one of the biggest in the history of the Republic of Cyprus and is calling for a criminal investigation. MP Christos Christofides emphasized the need for immediate answers and investigation of potential criminal offenses. The party is demanding the resignations of the President's Chief of Staff and the First Lady from the Social Support Agency, which it characterizes as "the cornerstone of the scandal." The Audit Office had already issued a report confirming the evidence emerging from the controversial video. AKEL insists that the issue does not end with the resignations and demands a full explanation from President Christodoulides, while denouncing attempts to present the case as a collective failure.
