When asked by a journalist if among the names he is evaluating for his Council of Ministers we might also see a person who comes from Larnaca, Mr. Christodoulidis said that “there will be a presence from all regions of Cyprus based on one basic criterion.” The criterion is the ability to be able to serve and work for the implementation of our program and I can tell you that in the city of Larnaca there are several worthy men and women who can successfully respond to these tasks, he added.  ;
In his speech, Mr. Christodoulidis said that he will be the President of all Cypriots. He noted that "since March 1 we are judged daily and we want to be judged daily by the Cypriot people. I want to promise you that everything we mentioned during the election campaign, we will implement. It is our contract with the Cypriot people,” he said.
"The second thing that I kept from this election campaign as a very beautiful memory was the fact that all this time you all opened your homes to receive me, we talked together, you helped me to better understand clearly what the problems are, what they are the difficulties, what are your expectations from the governance of the country and I want to promise you today that it is precisely on the basis of the priorities that you have highlighted to us all this time that we will move from March 1,' he added.
He said that "with my presence tonight in Larnaca I also want to send a message. A message to all political groups. Today I had meetings with several leaders of political parties, tomorrow I will have meetings with the President of the Democratic Alarm, Averof Neofytou, with the General Secretary of AKEL, Stefanos Stefanou, and I will continue the meetings in the following days until February 28, the day I will present myself to the Parliament of the Representatives, to put into practice what I really believe and it will help us to respond clearly better to your own expectations, in the formation of a government of broad social acceptance”.
“An inclusive government, which was something that I promised it during the election campaign», he said, adding that “By joining forces we can clearly better respond to all that we have to give to the Cypriot society. Let's face all these challenges which have neither a partisan character nor an ideological origin”.
