on the condition of the health of the President of the Republic


Following a prolonged nosebleed, the President of the Republic Mr Nicos Anastasiades was admitted early this morning to a hospital in Brussels where it was ascertained that the incident is due to high blood pressure.

He was administered the appropriate medical treatment, and because of the nose-bleeding incident and the necessity to prevent its recurrence, the President was advised to remain in bed for the next 48 hours. The President was released from the hospital and is at a Brussels hotel.

The President of the Republic will be closely monitored by an attending doctor in Brussels.
