AKEL and Ukraine: A curious silence

The Cypriot left-wing party, AKEL, has been observed to maintain a silence regarding developments in Ukraine. While meetings and talks have taken place between various leaders, AKEL has avoided expressing any position on the matter.
This silence raises questions about the reasons behind this avoidance. Speculation arises as to whether the party is trying to avoid displeasing someone or whether there is another factor influencing their stance.
Despite the absence of an official position, a party that declares its positions are based on principles is expected to express an opinion on all important issues, including Ukraine.
