EDEK Announces Two New Candidates for Parliamentary Elections

EDEK has announced two new candidates for the parliamentary elections in May. They are businessman Xenios Xenophontos, a member of the party's Central Committee, who will run in the district of Nicosia, and farmer Charalambos Athanasiou, also a candidate in Nicosia. The announcement of the candidacies marks the start of the pre-election period for EDEK, as the party prepares for the upcoming parliamentary elections. The new candidates are expected to contribute to the party's effort to represent the interests of citizens and promote its policies. Xenios Xenophontos, as a businessman, brings a different perspective and experience to EDEK, while Charalambos Athanasiou, as a farmer, represents the agricultural sector and the needs of farmers. The diversity of the candidates suggests EDEK's attempt to appeal to a wider range of voters.
