Recognition of Cyprus's Economic Upgrade by DISY and AKEL

September 21, 2026

Both DISY and AKEL acknowledge the upgrade of Cyprus's economy by S&P but refrain from crediting the Christodoulides government for this success. DISY points to the foundations laid by the previous administration, while AKEL highlights the sacrifices made by society. Both parties stress the need for meaningful reforms and improvements in citizens' everyday lives while noting ongoing issues such as inflation and the housing crisis. The absence of a statement from the Democratic Party is noteworthy.
