The Presidential Elections of February 2023 are a historic crossroads for the future of Cyprus. Alarm government is delivering a society more unequal than ever, a country internationally displaced and the Cyprus issue in the most dangerous phase since 1974. Staying Alarm in government means that the country will remain in the deadlocks caused by corruption, the food will grow. benefit of the great interests and the complete driving of the state and the institutions by the current rulers will be completed. Everything argues that Cyprus deserves a great progressive change at all levels and in all areas. A new beginning by implementing an ambitious program for the modernization of Cyprus.
AKEL and the Left are at the forefront of the battle for change, supporting the independent candidacy of Andreas Mavrogiannis.

us. Throughout his public career he served the Republic of Cyprus. It is no coincidence that a number of Presidents have entrusted him with high positions with great challenges. Positions from which he consistently defended the interest of the homeland. Andreas Mavrogiannis has a distinguished tenure in the diplomatic service and served as Permanent Representative of Cyprus to the United Nations and the European Union. He served in the government of Dimitris Christofias as Deputy Minister for European Affairs, successfully completing the work of the first Cypriot Presidency of the Council of the EU.

Andreas Mavrogiannis is the choice for every Cypriot, who wants Cyprus to get back on its feet, to clean its face and to deserve the pride of every citizen.

The workers and the new generation, the middle class and the small and medium-sized entrepreneurs, the elderly, the vulnerable groups of society are the ones who have paid more than all the ten years of the Alarm government, which has burdened them with every crisis that has passed.
the place. Andreas Mavrogiannis shares with the Left the position that there is an urgent need to implement an active social program that protects the vast majority of society from accuracy, low wages, banking arbitrariness, inequalities. It sets as priorities the defense of public wealth, the creation of a welfare state, which adequately covers all the modern needs of society. Andreas Mavrogiannis' priorities include housing policy, the creation of decent jobs, the regulation of labor relations, public education and public health, human rights, environmental protection, and culture.
< p> For solution and reunification
In the Cyprus issue, Andreas Mavrogiannis has the necessary knowledge and experience. It is no coincidence that he warned in time about the Turkish plans for Varosi. It is committed to a solution based on a bi-zonal, bi-communal federation with political equality as set out in the UNSC Resolutions. Believes in the need for immediate restart
of the negotiations from the point that they stopped in 2017, on the basis of the Guterres Framework and the negotiating acquis. With the assumption of the Presidency, Andreas Mavrogiannis will take initiatives in this direction, utilizing the relevant proposal of AKEL.
DISY GOVERNANCE or PROGRESSIVE CHANGE?
In these Presidential Elections, every citizen of Cyprus is called upon to answer a crucial question: Does the place withstand a third term of DISY or does it need a real progressive change for a new beginning? DISY is running in the elections with two candidates, but no one should be fooled.
Averof Neophytou and Nikos Christodoulidis are executives of the Alarm and key executives of the ten-year Anastasiadis government, of which they are proud. Any election means that the Alarm will remain in power and the descent of the place will continue.
AKEL and the Left put above all the interest of the homeland that today requires exemption from the alarm regime. We call for mobilization and unity throughout the progressive world of the country, in the world of work, in the new generation, for a change of government
of the place. To rid Cyprus of what is drowning and burdening it. To shape the
perspective by achieving progressive change.
