    DISY supports Clerides' candidacy for presidency

    Nicosia, Jan 5 (CNA) President of the Ruling rightwing Democratic Rally party (DISY) Nicos Anastasiades said here yesterday the party's political bureau decided by an overwhelming majority to back the candidacy of President Clerides in next month's presidential elections.

    Speaking after a lengthy bureau meeting Anastasiades noted that the party's highest authority, the Supreme Council will be asked next Saturday to change its previous decision for backing the candidacy of KISOS President Yannakis Omirou and to give its support to President Clerides.

    ''We respect the abilities and the capabilities of Mr. Omirou, but President Clerides' call for the creation of a broadly accepted government for 16 months, at this critical time for Cyprus, is more important. It is a historic duty for the party to support President Clerides' candidacy,'' said Anastasiades.
