Karousos Raises Concerns Over Larnaca Port Director Position Announcement

The President of the Committee for Missing Persons (CMP) Yannis Karousos has expressed strong objections to the recent announcement of a Director position for the Limassol Port, using the job description of the Director of the Ammóchōstos Port. He believes this is a constitutional, administrative, and political issue, as the Ammóchōstos position is symbolic and linked to the occupied city. He highlights the paradox of Limassol having two Port Directors with the same job description and proposes the creation of a new position with clear regulatory duties, instead of using the Ammóchōstos position as a “loophole”. He requests answers from the Cyprus Ports Authority regarding the position's budgetary provision and the city to which it refers.
