I am interested in making sure that the people of Cyprus will be able to live in a reunited Cyprus, where they are free, where there's a democracy, freedom and Cyprus is a member of the European Union.

Greece gave democracy to the rest of the world.

Public television goes dark only in two circumstances: when a country is occupied by foreign forces or when there is a coup.

I will continue to decisively promote reforms that will promote growth, and at the same time, I will continue to negotiate hard in order to avoid any reforms that would undermine growth.

I think that the best guarantee for the Cypriot people to feel safe is the potential of a fair and sustainable solution.

We need to find a fair and viable solution on the basis of U.N. resolutions and the incompatible with the fact that Cyprus is an E.U. member state.

It is our duty to make a leap into the future, and I believe that we will make it.
