Presidential Elections 1959-2013
Presidential Elections 1959-2013 1959 Elections The first Presidential Elections in Cyprus took place before independence on 13 December 1959. Archbishop Makarios was elected President of the Republic defeating his opponent Ioannis Clerides by a margin of two to one. The next elections were due in 1965 but were postponed as a result of the extraordinary situation created by the intercommunal strife. The term of office was extended by a law of the House of Representatives. 1968 Elections At the elections on 25 February 1968, Archbishop Makarios was elected with 96% of the votes. In 1973 President Makarios was re-elected unopposed. After his death in 1977, the then President of the House of Representatives, Spyros Kyprianou, assumed duties temporarily. On 31 August 1977, Spyros Kyprianou was declared elected unopposed, for the remainder of the presidential term. In February 1978 he was again declared elected unopposed for a new five-year term. 1983 Elections On 13 February 1983, President Kyprianou, supported by his center Democratic Party and left-wing AKEL, was re-elected to office. He was opposed by Glafcos Clerides, the leader of the right-wing Democratic Rally Party and Vassos Lyssarides of the Socialist party, EDEK. 1988 Elections In February 1988, George Vassiliou was elected to the post of President of the Republic. In the first round on 14 February 1988, none of the four candidates received the required 50% plus one vote, but in the runoff, on 21 February 1988, Vassiliou managed to secure the 51.63% of the votes cast. 1993 Elections On 14 February 1993, Glafcos Clerides, the leader of the Democratic Rally, was elected to the post of President of the Republic, defeating George Vassiliou, who again ran as an independent candidate supported by AKEL and ADISOK. -

Security Council Distr.: General 4 June 2007
United Nations S/2007/328 Security Council Distr.: General 4 June 2007 Original: English Report of the Secretary-General on the United Nations Operation in Cyprus I. Introduction 1. The present report on the United Nations operation in Cyprus covers developments from 25 November 2006 to 25 May 2007, and brings up to date the record of activities carried out by the United Nations Peacekeeping Force in Cyprus (UNFICYP) pursuant to Security Council resolution 186 (1964) and subsequent Council resolutions, the most recent being resolution 1728 (2006). 2. As at 30 April 2007, the strength of the military component stood at 856 all ranks and the strength of the police component stood at 64 (see annex). II. Mission of good offices and other developments 3. On 15 December, the Security Council adopted resolution 1728 (2006), by which, inter alia, it expressed full support for the process agreed upon by the Greek Cypriot leader, Tassos Papadopoulos, and the Turkish Cypriot leader, Mehmet Ali Talat, on 8 July 2006, and encouraged active participation in bicommunal discussions as described in the letter dated 15 November 2006 from the then Under-Secretary-General Ibrahim Gambari, to which both leaders had responded positively, under the auspices of my Special Representative. The Security Council called for the early completion of the preparatory phase so that a fully fledged good offices process might resume as soon as possible. At the same time, the Council regretted the continued lack of trust between the parties, which had prevented the implementation of the 8 July agreement. 4. Over the past six months, my Special Representative has continued efforts aimed at facilitating the implementation of the 8 July agreement (see S/2006/572) through intensive discussions with the two leaders and their representatives. -
