Karoyan confirms that he will not be a candidate

His decision is expected after the internal party frictions

DIKO President Marios Karoyan clarified that he is not going to be a candidate in the presidential elections. Speaking on RIK's show "From day to day", Mr. Karoyan said that the intermediate space has taken very important steps, which will be completed by the end of May.

But the doors, he said, are still open to anyone who wants to work with him. The intermediate space, he added, is the cohesive link that can, without dogmas and ideologies, create conditions for the widest possible consensus. As for the candidate, Mr. Karoyan said he must be a non-confrontational person who can manage risks in the national issue, the economy and internal affairs.

Mr. Karoyan was also asked about the letter of the vice-president of DIKO Nikola Papadopoulos for convening the party secretariat which will discuss whether the meeting with AKEL should take place. He said that he did not consider it appropriate to respond to the letter, because he would discuss the issue in person with Mr. Papadopoulos.
