Mr. Stefanos referred to the Social Support Agency and student welfare, noting that AKEL will wait for the final outcome of Ms. Holguin's contacts and the information from President Christodoulides to draw its conclusions. AKEL believes that the resumption of negotiations is essential for resolving the Cyprus problem and restoring justice for the Cypriot people. The party is ready to contribute to this process constructively. Mr. Stefanos' statement highlights the importance of the UN's efforts to resolve the Cyprus issue and the need for political will from all sides.
