Irene, do not stun us

Deputy Minister Irene Piki has commented on the controversial video involving the President, Charalambos, and Lakkotrypis, urging patience for the criminal investigation results. She suggested that the images in the video might have been significantly distorted, though the narrative regarding hybrid warfare has largely collapsed. The investigation now focuses on whether former officials Charalambos and Georgios Lakkotrypis committed any criminal offenses. Specifically, Lakkotrypis is undergoing a new audit by the Tax Department regarding his financial dealings. Furthermore, President Nikos Christodoulides is being scrutinized for potential violations of campaign financing laws based on recent revelations.
