After their meeting at the Office of the President of the Republic, President Christodoulides will direct President Anastasiades, who will leave the Presidential Palace.
President Anastasiades is the seventh President of the Republic of Cyprus. He was first elected in 2013 and re-elected in 2018. During his ten-year rule, he has managed three major crises - economic, health and, in the last year, the consequences of the Russian invasion of Ukraine - and implemented major reforms such as the GESY, the Minimum Guaranteed Income and the reduction of military service.
Throughout the decade, efforts to resolve the Cyprus problem have been continuous and uninterrupted, however, all efforts have been met with the intransigent and negative attitude of the other side. This is the Cyprus Tomorrow Plan, which is expected to add an additional 7% to the Gross Domestic Product and is expected to create more than 11 thousand well-paid jobs. The benefits that will result from the implementation of the Plan will be for all citizens, regardless of party affiliation.
During his Presidency, Nicos Anastasiades received a number of honours from Heads of State and Government. President Anastasiades has also received honours from religious leaders, while four higher educational institutions have awarded him honorary doctorates.
