Averof Neofytou is announcing his candidacy for the 2028 presidential elections today. The front-page report of the newspaper “Alithia” highlighted the former DISY leader’s upcoming announcement.
Philenews information indicates that Neofytou has his declaration ready and will make the announcement today, explaining the reasons driving his decision.
Following the conclusion of the United Nations General Assembly in New York and the absence of positive developments that would reopen prospects for substantive negotiations on the Cyprus problem, Neofytou is moving forward with what he announced the previous day. As he stated on OMEGA’s “Aichmes” show and reiterated on ALPHA’s morning news program, if no developments arose regarding the Cyprus issue, he would run in the presidential elections.
What remained unclear was whether he would seek the party’s nomination through its internal procedures or file his candidacy as an independent. This is the question expected to be clarified today through his announcement, with reports indicating it will be a direct declaration of candidacy rather than an expression of interest for the DISY nomination.
Neofytou’s declaration will focus on the Cyprus problem and the necessity of finding a solution, appealing to all those who believe in that vision. The announcement of his candidacy will be made via a social media post.
