Northern Cyprus' Democratic Party approves parliamentary candidate lists

According to information given by the DP, the Democratic Party's parliamentary candidate lists were first approved by its Central Executive Board and then submitted to the Party Assembly for approval. Applications were considered in line with internal democratic party processes and district evaluations, and the lists were finalised after evaluations and votes.

The party said it presents itself to the public with a strong cadre that represents different sections of society, has accumulated knowledge and experience in its fields, and has the will to serve the country. It stated that its goal is to put forward an effective will in running the country with the strength the public will give, moving beyond approaches that only get through the day, and to initiate real change.

The approved lists include 16 candidates for Lefkoşa, 12 for Gazimağusa, 12 for Girne, five for İskele, three for Güzelyurt and two for Lefke. DP General Secretary Serhat Akpınar said the party is setting out without polarising or marginalising anyone and without leaving out any section of society.
