Breaking news… These are the highlights of Erdogan and Tatar’s statements:
PRESIDENT ERDOĞAN: The Turkish side is in favor of a just, permanent and sustainable solution in Cyprus. He has always taken action with a well-intentioned approach on this path. However, the efforts of the Turkish side alone are not enough for a solution. The only reason that negotiations, which have been going on for more than fifty years, always fail, is the irreconcilable mentality of the Greek side. The Greeks do not want to share the state they usurped with the Turkish Cypriot people. The Greek side continues to usurp the rights of the Turkish Cypriots, whom they want to see as a minority under their own rule. There are already two separate peoples and two separate states established by them in Cyprus. At this point, we think that starting the negotiations exclusively on the basis of the federation would be a waste of time. Cyprus from Turkey in a fair, lasting and maintaining the desire to find a sustainable solution. By protecting our rights on our own continental shelf in the eastern Mediterranean, we also uphold the legitimate rights and interests of the Turkish Cypriot people, who are the common owner of the island. The reason for the current situation in the eastern Mediterranean is the Greek-Greek duo, who have not listened to our warnings and have ignored our constructive suggestions since 2003. This game is now broken. Turkey and Cyprus will not be successful in the region, no attempt to take Turkey into account. We talked about the steps to follow to strengthen cooperation. Our goal is to raise the standard of living of the Turkish Cypriot people and make them look better to the future. Turkish Cypriots, Turkey you will always find below. Hopefully, we will overcome all forces together, as we have done until today, and we will move forward together towards even better days.
PRESIDENT TATAR: After being elected President of the TRNC, I am very pleased to be in Ankara at your invitation and to discuss the common problems of the two sister states. Turkey is our brother, as well as the main homeland. Turkey on July 15, 1974 after the proclamation of the Republic of Cyprus Helen was approved, it should be considered what would be the correct measure using the guarantor. My dear President, Turkey and the TRNC, on many occasions to secure a just and lasting Cyprus issue, have tried to fulfill their part of the agreement. The Greek team still dreams of going back to before 1974. The 5’li conference proposals presented by Turkey are a last chance for us. In our opinion, TRNC’s proposal to convene a conference to discuss developments in the Eastern Mediterranean is extremely realistic and constructive. The question of hydrocarbons is a test of sincerity for the Greek Cypriot side.
Varosha was opened as the first step according to our government’s roadmap for the closed Varosha. Hopefully we will open the hospital soon, which will greatly contribute to our healthcare infrastructure with your support.
‘WE DO PICNIC IN MARA CLOSED’
PRESIDENT ERDOĞAN: We will have a visit to North Cyprus on November 15th. With this visit, let’s attend those ceremonies that day and at the same time open this emergency hospital. With this opening, we will have fulfilled our return visit. Let’s all do it together. It is helpful to bring one more thing to the agenda with this vision. Mr. Çavuşoğlu says that we can have a picnic in Closed Maraş. Is there something manic, Mr. President? The doors have been opened, let’s open the roads there at this point, so that our brothers in Cyprus have personally seen the steps to follow for the next process.
PRESIDENT TATAR: Most of Maraş is open now, tens of thousands of our citizens live there. Opening the rate is what is expected of us, it suits us. Your support is very important to us in the decisions we make. If the properties there are returned to their owners, they will be able to develop or transfer them. With the support of the Turkish Republic, I listen as a Turkish Cypriot to share the riches of the Eastern Mediterranean. We have an enhanced status state in the Eastern Mediterranean, the name of this state is TRNC. Whether they accept it or not; There are two states that live next to each other in Cyprus. Perhaps the Republic of Cyprus was subjected to genocide at the time, but was able to resist. He wrote an epic. If such approval was obtained with my election as President, it means that it is approved. The Greek Cypriots are not at the same point, depending on the changing conditions in Cyprus. Nobody believes it in the Greek part of Cyprus. But a routine process continues to keep him busy. Cyprus is not old Cyprus. The Eastern Mediterranean is not the old Eastern Mediterranean. The TRNC needs to cover the eastern Mediterranean even further. Our national dignity, our national interests and therefore the interests of our peoples are in favor of the continuation of this policy. I want to send a message to Turkey. the brotherhood between the peoples of Turkey with the people of TRNC wants to share and work with all its strength to reach the best place.
