AKEL Comments on EU Council Conclusions Regarding British Bases

AKEL commented on the reference in the conclusions of the European Council regarding Cyprus's intention to discuss the issue of British Bases with the UK. AKEL stated its willingness to help, recalling that Dimitris Christofias, upon taking office in 2008, had avoided raising the issue of the Bases, postponing it to future generations. Furthermore, it was mentioned that Christofias had reversed measures restricting the activity of the Bases that had been adopted in 2007 by the previous government.
