Written
statement by the Deputy Government Spokesman
Mr Victor
Papadopoulos
The Government
welcomes as a positive development the upgrading of the credit rating
of our country by the Rating Agency Standard and Poor’s to B+.
The efforts and
commitment of the Government for reform and modernization of the
Cyprus economy and the state, render tangible results, since the new
upgrading by Standard and Poor’s demonstrates the international
confidence that the Cypriot economy is regaining.
It is very clear
that the effort must continue with persistence and devotion to our
goals, which can be achieved through the only feasible course we must
cover.
