Not a serious leader

Sir,
Having read the contents of the letter sent by the UN to Mehmet Ali Talat, the Turkish Cypriot Leader, I am apalled to read how Tassos Papadopoulos distorted the facts to his own people and the world. It is a big shame!

One is beginning to think that Tassos has proved over and over again that he is not a serious leader to lead his own people to a united Cyprus.

It makes you wonder whether he should be elected in the next elections or a new, more stable and honest Greek Cypriot leader should come to lead and unite the long suffering and torn island.

The Cyprus Mail is the only English-language daily newspaper published in Cyprus. It was established in 1945 and today, with its popular and widely-read website, the Cyprus Mail is among the most trusted news sites in Cyprus. The newspaper is not affiliated with any political parties and has always striven to maintain its independence. Over the past 70-plus years, the Cyprus Mail, with a small dedicated team, has covered momentous events in Cyprus’ modern history, chronicling the last gasps of British colonial rule, Cyprus’ truncated independence, the coup and Turkish invasion, and the decades of negotiations to stitch the divided island back together, plus a myriad of scandals, murders, and human interests stories that capture the island and its -people. Observers describe it as politically conservative.
