Ioannou: “The controversial video is malicious - The government is committed to transparency and meritocracy”

The Minister of Interior, Konstantinos Ioannou, dismissed claims regarding the recently circulated video, describing it as a product of malicious image and audio editing aimed at discrediting the government and its efforts to attract investment. He emphasized the government's commitment to transparency and meritocracy, citing reforms in the management of Turkish Cypriot properties as an example. The case of the video is under investigation, but the minister avoided giving details, stressing that the material aims to create unfounded conclusions. At the same time, he referred to the attraction of quality investments as a strategic choice for development and full employment.
