President to Brief National Council on FMD and War Consequences 'If Requested'

The President of the Republic, Nikos Christodoulides, will brief the National Council on the issues of foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) and the economic consequences of the war in the region, if requested by its members during Monday's meeting. This was stated by the Government Spokesman, Konstantinos Letymbiotis, responding to a question from CNA. The briefing will take place after the President's meeting with the UN Secretary-General, Antonio Guterres, in Brussels. The President will present the latest developments and will be followed by an exchange of views with the political leaders on the next steps. The discussion on FMD and the economic impact of the war will take place only at the request of the Council's participants. The government is closely monitoring the situation and is ready to take the necessary measures to address the challenges posed by FMD and the economic consequences of the war. Briefing the National Council is part of the effort for transparency and cooperation in addressing these important issues. The government's goal is to protect public health and the country's economy, as well as to ensure stability and security in the region. Cooperation with political leaders and international partners is considered essential to achieve these goals.
