**NICOSIA —** Abp. Georgios of Cyprus emphasized that the health of [Met. Tychikos](https://uoj.news/tag/tychikos-of-paphos-1082) and the decisions of the Holy Synod are separate matters, as the [Church of Cyprus](https://uoj.news/tag/kiprskaja-pravoslavnaja-cerkovy-597) continues to monitor developments in the case of the controversially deposed Metropolitan of Paphos.

According to reporting from [Orthodoxia News Agency](https://www.orthodoxianewsagency.gr/aytokefales%5Fekklisies/ekklisia%5Fkiprou/arxiepiskopos-kyprou-gia-episkopo-tyxiko-allo-i-ygeia-kai-allo-oi-apofaseis-tis-ieras-synodou/), Abp. Georgios confirmed that the Synod is awaiting Tychikos’ return from Athens, where he had been hospitalized and recently discharged. "If he does not come in a reasonable period of time, we will see what we will do,” His Beatitude said.

The Archbishop added that the Synod’s decisions to depose Met. Tychikos — [ratified by the Patriarchate of Constantinople](https://uoj.news/news/85420-breaking-ecumenical-patriarchate-upholds-decision-of-church-of-cyprus-to-depose-met-tychikos/) — will be implemented in full, noting that Met. Tychikos has been "given an alternative solution" and is expected to recover before deciding his next steps.

Previously, [UOJ reported](https://uoj.news/news/85469-met-tychikos-hospitalized-after-leaving-phanar/) that Met. Tychikos had been hospitalized after leaving the Phanar.
