Christodoulides is said to have asked members of the cabinet, that convened on Wednesday, to look into the projects included in Cyprus Recovery and Resilience Plan so that not a single Euro would be lost from the funds earmarked for Cyprus, in the framework of an action plan that will be presented shortly.

According to information, the President told Ministers that he wants them to have a strong presence in the EU Councils of Ministers and to brief the Council of Ministers on a constant basis about the important decisions taken.
