Presidential Office Responds to Controversial Video, Claims Malicious Editing

The Presidential Office of Cyprus is responding to the circulated video, stating that the conversations themselves are not disputed, but it is believed that malicious audio and video editing was done to create impressions. Security services are investigating the origin of the video and the content of the conversations. It is clarified that the role of the Director of the Presidential Office is limited to facilitating investments and providing information, while Mr. Chrysoschos had no direct contact with the President. The government distinguishes between attracting investment and illegal financial transactions and emphasizes that any donations are made through official procedures.
