AKEL: Christodoulides Government Gambles with Cyprus's Rights

AKEL accused the Christodoulides government of gambling with Cyprus's rights by participating in the meeting of the self-proclaimed "Peace Council" established by Trump. AKEL characterized this decision as a historic slide in Cyprus's foreign policy, with enormous risks for the cause of the homeland. The party calls on all political forces to take a stand against this decision, emphasizing that Trump's "Council" is part of an incendiary strategy that replaces the UN and renders international law useless. AKEL stresses that Cyprus bases its existence on international law and UN resolutions and that participation in schemes that violate this law is self-denial.
