Nikola's letter to PD: Give an order for immediate delivery of files

A letter to the President of the Republic was sent on Friday morning by the President of DIKO.

A few hours after the budget was voted down, Nikolas Papadopoulos sent a letter to the President inviting him to give an immediate order to hand over the files to the Auditor.

The letter is as follows: 

Your Excellency, Mr President,

On October 15, 2020, the Democratic Party decided to set as a condition, for a vote in favor of the state budget of 2021, control, transparency and cleansing, requesting the Government to provide the Audit Office with copies of all naturalization files.

In the more than two months that have passed since then, we have repeatedly explained that transparency and control are an obvious requirement of the vast majority of Cypriot society. At the same time, we stressed that it would be contradictory to entrust the money of taxpayers to a government, which is burdened by this big scandal, for which our country has been denounced by the European Commission and which, unfortunately, proves to control and hide the relevant data from the competent and authorized service of the state.

Unfortunately, the government not only refused to respond to this simple and clear request of society, but, on the contrary, provoked a vote against the state budget, leading the country into crisis.

On behalf of the Democratic Party, I ask you to do the obvious: Give the immediate order to deliver copies of all naturalization dossiers to the Audit Office. Do not insist on burdening the Cypriot citizens with a crisis that you should not have caused. Your decision, your responsibility.

We hope that, even now, you will respond positively.

Sincerely Yours

Nikolas Papadopoulos
President of the Democratic Party
