In statements, on the sidelines of an Easter event organized by EDON Deryneia, in front of the Folk Museum of Deryneia, Mr. Stefanou said that "we have procedures which we will continue immediately after Easter. First we will do other procedures, then there will be the meeting of the Central Committee of AKEL, we will also go down to the party members to discuss and we will come back again back to the Central Committee to evaluate the discussion and the views of the party members."
He added that "based on the procedure we have in the party, we will make our final decisions at an extraordinary pancyprian congress scheduled to take place in June, where we will complete the procedures and make our decisions to start work on the presidential elections."
Asked whether meetings will be held with other political parties apart from DIKO, Stefanou said that "already in Holy Week we had meetings. We said some things with the parties, we will see what their reaction and response will be," he said, noting that "of course we will continue to be in contact with these parties, but at the same time we will do our own procedures."
