A heated dispute continues between the government and the coalition regarding the Great Sea Interconnector (GSI) undersea pipeline project. The President of DIKO, Nikola Papadopoulos, is calling on the President of the Republic to clarify the government's position on the project, pointing out contradictions in the statements of the Ministers of Finance and Energy. Papadopoulos questions the existence of multiple government positions and argues that the government must have a unified approach. He also emphasizes that cooperation between the government and the coalition on important policy issues is not at a high level and calls on President Christodoulides to improve the functioning of the coalition.
