President Christodoulides evaluates cabinet reshuffle amid shifting political alliances

President Nikos Christodoulides is currently evaluating potential cabinet changes following the legislative elections held in May. These elections resulted in significant shifts in the political landscape of Cyprus. The EDEK and DIPA parties, which previously supported the President, have lost their parliamentary representation, reducing their influence within the government. Despite these changes, the Minister of Labor, Marinos Mousioutas, is expected to remain in his post as he was appointed during the December reshuffle and retains the President's confidence. Other officials, including Minister of Agriculture Maria Panayiotou and Finance Minister Makis Keravnos, remain part of the current governmental framework. The President is now working to consolidate his support base among remaining coalition partners, particularly DIKO. Political analysts suggest that the President seeks to balance these new political realities while maintaining administrative stability. No official date for the reshuffle has been announced.
