Nicosia, Cyprus. The Animal Party said on Tuesday it had accepted an invitation from social media influencer Fidias Panayiotou’s Direct Democracy Cyprus to hold a meeting and exchange views.
The meeting is scheduled to take place at parliament on Thursday afternoon.
Dialogue invitation
The Animal Party said it welcomes invitations for dialogue on matters of public interest, particularly issues concerning people, animals and nature, “for one health and one prosperity”.
It said it would approach the dialogue in a spirit of cooperation while maintaining its autonomy, independence and the principles governing its actions.
Recent electoral results
The Animal Party endorsed the Ecologists’ Movement ahead of May’s parliamentary elections. The Ecologists’ Movement subsequently lost all its seats, leaving it without representation in the House for the first time in a quarter of a century.
Direct Democracy Cyprus won four seats in its first electoral test since its creation, becoming the sixth-most popular party. It received less than one-third of the votes Panayiotou secured in the 2024 European Parliament elections.
