There will be more entries on the sanctions list, President of the Republic of Cyprus Nicos Christodoulides said today, noting that it does not refer to nationals of the Republic of Cyprus, but does not exclude entities, legal or natural persons, located within the Republic of Cyprus.
In his statements to journalists, on the sidelines of a futsal match in the framework of Telethon 2023, the President of the Republic of Cyprus, asked whether the Republic of Cyprus received information on the issue of sanctions from the US and the UK, said: "So far we have not received any information, but I can tell you that, yes, we are expecting any moment, we have been informed that we will be given information. They will be given to us gradually, they will not be given to us in one phase, because on the part of both the US and the British authorities there are many agencies, many authorities involved.
What I want to reiterate is that we, from our side, are doing everything possible, we will do whatever needs to be done, so that our country, under no circumstances whatsoever, will not be seen as a country that violates sanctions, does not apply sanctions and so on.

This is our opportunity, in quotation marks and without quotation marks, to get this matter over with, to clear our country's name once and for all.
An effort has been going on for many years, it is not these days that it started. Over the years, efforts have been made and these efforts have produced results.
Our aim is to improve this result even more in relation to the impression of our country and the reality of what is really happening in these areas. And we will not allow anyone to think that they can violate, creating a problem at the same time and in the name of our country, to continue with this kind of behavior.
From there, we will see the data, the competent authorities of the Republic of Cyprus are ready at any time to study them, to evaluate them and we will be here to talk again."
Asked if there is information about a new list or the addition of other persons, President Christodoulides said that "what I can tell you is that there will be other entries, not talking about nationals of the Republic of Cyprus, in general, not excluding entities, or legal or natural persons located within the Republic of Cyprus.
What we are interested in is that any information is given to us as soon as possible and I repeat that we will do everything possible. We will not allow the name that exists for our country to be negatively altered."
