“Cyprus is Shaken”… Video with ‘Investors’ Makes Waves in Greece

The release of a video featuring recordings of conversations between alleged foreign businessmen and close associates of the President of Cyprus has sparked a political storm in Greece. The video, which depicts discussions about funding, is featured on the front pages of Greek newspapers and is a major topic on many news websites. The newspapers comment on the video with headlines such as “A video sets Nicosia on fire” and “Political tremors in Cyprus due to video about black money”. “Efimerida ton Syntakton” asks about “Collusion or slander”, while “Dimokratia” speaks of a “Hybrid Attack on Cyprus”. Stefanos Kasselakis, leader of the Democracy Movement, called for the resignation of President Christodoulides, expressing the view that the only honest choice is the one Kyriakos Mitsotakis did not choose. He argued that the video reveals a system of corruption and offered his support to Odysseus Michaelides and his movement, Alma, in their fight for transparency.
