The President of the National Popular Front (ELAM) Mr. Christos Christou, in an official statement after the announcement of the final results of the first round of the presidential elections, said the following:
"I want to thank the thousands of our fellow citizens who supported our candidacy. I would also like to thank in particular the wonderful people of ELAM who fought all this time in a climate of polarisation, in a climate of extreme polemics and we managed today to establish ourselves as the fourth political force in Cyprus. We fully understand the role and the message that society has sent us. We are here to work on the problems of our fellow citizens, on the major issues that concern our country.
In the coming days we have a meeting of the Central Committee to make the final decisions regarding the second round of elections. We are focusing, however, not just on the second Sunday, but on the third and fourth Sunday. That is where the problems continue and where all political forces will have to work for the good of the country.
Thank you again warmly to all the people who are on our side.
Asked by a journalist whether he would send a questionnaire to the two candidates who made it to the second round, Christou replied. On the basis of their responses, a decision will be taken, probably next Wednesday evening. Take care".
