New Government Spokesman Prodromos Prodromou assumed today his duties during a ceremony that took place in the Presidential Palace.
Prodromou thanked the President of the Republic for his appointment noting that it does not only constitute an honor but also a great responsibility which ‘we will assume together with Deputy Government Spokeswoman Klelia Vasiliou’.
‘We assure you that we will make every effort to fullfill our duties and the needs of this position’ he said, pointing out that the cooperation with the press will be a very close one.
He thanked his predecessor, Nikos Christodoulides, and congratulated him on his new duties at the Foreign Ministry.
