The President of the Democratic Party-Coalition of Democratic Forces (PPD) Mr. Marios Karoyan exercised his right to vote today at the 2nd Primary School of Egomi, Centre D, in Egomi.
Immediately afterwards, in a statement to journalists, Mr. Karoyan said the following: "A long and difficult election campaign is over. We have reached the end. Today, as you rightly said, is the celebration of democracy. Today the Cypriot people are called upon to set the course for the next five years by electing the new President of the Republic. What I can say is that there is no longer any need for empty promises, futile conflicts and confrontations. What is needed for our country, facing significant challenges, risks and opportunities that must be exploited, for the new generation in particular, but also for the preservation of the integrity of our country, is collectivity, unity, responsibility, consensus and composition. These are the things that should characterise us in the period immediately ahead. Things are difficult. No one is left over in this great effort to regenerate the country and safeguard its interests, but also to deal with the serious problems it faces, whether of an economic nature, issues of daily life or accumulated issues that need to be managed. It is time, as one, to fight the battle for our country, our society and our children. In conclusion, I would like to call on all of us, that at this critical juncture, at this important crossroads, everyone should participate in the electoral process, because the power of the citizens is the power of the vote. Participation also means co-responsibility. For this reason, I hope, within a framework of political culture that characterises our people, that this electoral process will be completed and that the next day there will be neither winner nor loser. The winner will be our country, our Cyprus, our society and the future of our children. Good vote to all."
