The International Coordinating Committee Justice for Cyprus, PSEKA, has called on the US government to support Ambassador Andreas Kakouris for the position of President of the United Nations General Assembly.
In a statement signed by PSEKA President Philip Christopher, the organisation said it welcomes the decision of the Cyprus Government to nominate Ambassador Andreas Kakouris for the position of President of the General Assembly of the United Nations.
PSEKA noted that the election is expected to be contested between Cyprus and Bangladesh. It stressed that Ambassador Kakouris ‘has the credentials and the experience to deal with the major issues of the United Nations.’
Referring to Cyprus’ relationship with the United States, PSEKA called on the U.S. Government to support the Cypriot candidacy. ‘In view of the fact that the Republic of Cyprus is a strong strategic partner of America, we urge that our Government support the candidacy of Ambassador Andreas Kakouris,’ the statement said.
