The President of the Republic, Mr Nicos Anastasiades, presided today
over a meeting of the Council of political party leaders, at the Presidential
Palace.
After the meeting, the Deputy Government Spokesman, Mr Viktoras
Papadopoulos, told the Press that “the President of the Republic briefed the
political party leaders on what has taken place since the latest meeting of the
National Council, on the meetings he had with foreign leaders, heads of state
and government, European institutions, as well as on the course of the talks on
the Cyprus problem.
It was a thorough briefing on the part of the President of the
Republic. A discussion took place in a constructive atmosphere.”
To an observation by a journalist that political party leaders are
calling for a meeting of the National Council for further briefing and
consultation, Mr Papadopoulos said that “I think this will take place soon in
order to examine issues with regard to the course of the talks [on the Cyprus
problem].”
