Andreas Mavroyiannis will decide by the end of the year whether to run in the 2028 presidential elections, he said on Wednesday, adding that if he does stand, it will be to win and become the next President of the Republic.
“It will not be a symbolic candidacy,” he told Sigma’s ‘Mesimeri kai Kati’ programme.
Mavroyiannis said he had not yet made up his mind, and would decide with his associates before the end of the year, with the aim of announcing his decision in January.
If he does run, he said, he will then have to assess how the campaign develops. He said he might withdraw if it becomes clear by the summer that the very large momentum he says now surrounds his candidacy has been lost.
He said he and his associates have a plan and are following it, and that ordinary people approach him every day.
