Of course this should be done, I want to be straightforward and categorical, (but) what we expected today is to hear what the Ukrainian people are suffering now, but the same as we were suffering in 1974.
Us bothers the fact that there was no report. The rule of law does not distinguish between states and the rights of others are violated, but the rights of others are ignored.
What we have done is our duty to international legitimacy. If there are others with more flexible consciences or who can tolerate similar actions as long as they are not influenced themselves, this is completely foreign to the principles of a European country and especially a country that has experienced and is still experiencing the sufferings of an invasion or was justified on the exact same arguments and on the same, unfortunately, non-existent facts “.
Asked to comment on the absence of AKEL MPs “I am not here to comment or make political comments,” he said. “It is the right of every power to behave (as it wishes), the people judge.” the President replied “of course. Is there any doubt? “
Asked whether there is a case of revocation of passports of Russian oligarchs , the President of the Republic said that “the Council of Ministers today authorized the Minister of the Interior to proceed with the process of revoking four of the 850 that are on the EU sanctions list. The rest (on the list) who have passports have not received the relevant passport from the Republic of Cyprus “.
Also, when asked to comment on today's report by US Undersecretary of State Victoria Nuland on the EastMed pipeline the impression that, and we have said it repeatedly, this will be judged after the viability study.
What is being observed today is a need to study alternative sources of supply to the EU, based on the new data. Therefore, it will be judged by the studies, by the amount of gas to be made available and therefore I do not consider that it was excluded “. & nbsp;
Asked if there is a window of opportunity as there is a strong interest in finding alternative sources of energy supply, the President noted that “this is exactly what I have said”.
Finally asked if during their meeting Today, he discussed with Ms. Nuland the US readiness to give F16 to Turkey, the President said “no. I focused my attention on the Cyprus issue, on what should be done, on what should not be done and not on the policies that America pursues towards third countries. Of course, I did not fail to point out that I would like to see the same determination shown towards Russia, and towards a country which, in fact, refuses to implement the decisions, the sanctions taken by either NATO or the EU, whose candidate country is Turkey “.
