Andreas Michaelides Could Replace Sykas on DISY Ballot

Andreas Michaelides, former president of KOA and MP, is being considered as a potential replacement for Nikos Sykas on the DISY ballot following a proposal for his removal. He stated that he has not been contacted yet, but will announce his decision when called by the party leadership. Michaelides is the first substitute in Limassol and, if Sykas's removal is finalized, he is expected to be asked to replace him. The decision to remove Sykas has been referred to the DISY Political Bureau, which will meet on Wednesday to make a final decision. The issue of Sykas's removal from the parliamentary group is not expected to be raised before the legal investigation is completed.
