Time for Coalition Parties to Leave

The ruling coalition parties in Cyprus have a golden opportunity to withdraw from the government without being accused of doing so for electoral reasons. The release of a video has provided a compelling reason to leave, as participation in the Christodoulides government has not improved, but rather worsened, their popularity, according to polls. If the parties DIKO, EDEK, and DIPA do not withdraw, they risk facing political consequences and being punished by the public for the video's content.
