AKEL General Secretary: "Trump is Paranoid Right-Wing - Europeans Obsessed with Russia"

AKEL General Secretary Stefanos Stefanou estimated that the bill to restrict the sale of property to citizens of third countries will be approved before the end of Parliament, arguing that it is a necessary intervention with social and national dimensions. He stressed that the mass sale of land to foreigners affects prices and limits the choices of Cypriots, while also raising security concerns. He also criticized European leadership for its handling of energy and linked economic pressures to the war in the Persian Gulf, blaming Trump and Netanyahu for escalating tensions. He also referred to tourism and the need for strategic development, as well as the housing problem.
