We have to continue with the
implementation of the program concerning the loan agreement with the Troika,
because this is the fastest way out of that agreement, the Government Spokesman,
Mr Christos Stylianides, said today.
In his statements to the press, at the
Presidential Palace, and invited to comment on yesterday's decision by the
Eurogroup through which it praises the Cyprus Government for its implementation
of the program concerning the loan agreement with the Troika, the Spokesman said
that all these positive evaluations, whether by the Eurogroup or by other
European officials, are based on the implementation of the policy on behalf of
the Government, but they mainly reflect the maturity of the Cypriot people who
have proven that they can be disciplined during difficult times as well, and
they know that this attitude will bring good results.
He added that “we firmly believe that
we must continue along this line for the implementation of the Program because
we all know that it is the quickest way out of the loan agreement.”
He said that these positive evaluations
send out the right messages to the markets and investors that in Cyprus the
situation is being normalized and that they can think of Cyprus as an investment
destination.
