The candidate for the Presidency, Stavros Malas, asked his opponents to stop fishing in murky waters and to take a clear and serious position on the big problems of Cyprus, calling on George Lillikas very serious complaints he made about the acquisition and withdrawal of their candidacy in favor of another candidate.
"It is not possible to go to the polls walking in the dark of such allegations," he said.
In statements today in his staff, Mr. Malas also called on Nikolas Papadopoulos to clarify what he believes about the future of the economy. "Does he really think that we should turn the public debt of Cyprus into a non-performing red loan in order to serve everyone's demagogic pre-election announcements?" Why else should we interpret what he said on a TV show? "By stopping payments, does he think he will find the money he so generously distributes, leading the Cypriot economy to new adventures?" He asked.
He also called on the Anastasiadis government to openly take responsibility for the situation in the public health sector, citing the image of collapse and disintegration in public hospitals that completely refutes the commitments to reorganize public hospitals, create appropriate working conditions. for doctors and nurses but also conditions of hospitalization for patients which would ensure the excellent provision of services.
What is needed, he said, is political will to make the announcements a reality with the immediate implementation of the GESS, the support of both public hospitals with both infrastructure and human resources, the modernization of health through the cooperation with the medical schools and the cooperation with the private sector for the benefit of patients.
Referring to education, he said that the distortions and problems created by wrong decisions in education should be corrected immediately, as the knowledge and training of tomorrow's citizens is at stake and reiterated his proposal to extend free compulsory pre-primary education from the age of of 4 years, total modernization of special education, review of the introduction of four-month exams in schools, strengthening of student care, which was "cut by the outgoing government".
Regarding the draft report on UNFICYP, where the UN Secretary General reiterates his willingness to help the two sides resume talks, Stavros Malas said that in the difficult phase of the Cyprus issue with the bifurcation lurking, there are no dangerous new strategies. nor retaliation, contradictions and sloppiness that led to the ransom of Turkey. "Cyprus needs a clear, prudent and decisive policy that is in line with the positions of the Secretary General and leads to the reunification of our country."
His candidacy ended up being absolutely connected to this position and is a cornerstone of the truth contract he has proposed to the Cypriot people.
