The Ministry of Foreign Affairs responded to the allegations of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Greek Cypriot Administration (GCA); He noted that the only occupation on the island was the 1960 occupation of the Republic of Cyprus by the Greek leadership.
In the written statement made by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, it was stated that โGCA has made baseless claims against our country and the Republic of Turkey in the last statement.โ
In the statement that continued, “GCA, like all criminals, is trying to justify its past sins by making victim literature,” the following was noted:
โThe Greek Ministry of Foreign Affairs is trying to make people forget the military coup aiming to connect the island to Greece, with an 11-year period in which the Greek Cypriot leadership destroyed the Republic of Cyprus with gun force in 1960 and subjected the Turkish Cypriots to enclaves and subjected them to barbaric treatment.โ
The only occupation on the island is the 1960 occupation of the Republic of Cyprus by the Greek leadership
The only occupation on the island was the 1960 occupation of the Republic of Cyprus by the Greek leadership.
โThe Turkish Cypriot people, who were left stateless by the Greek Cypriots, established the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus by using their right to self-determination. The secular Turkish Cypriot people, who believe in the rule of law, have a State, a democratically elected President, Assembly and Government. The Greek Cypriot Administration does not represent the Turkish Cypriot People legally or de facto. Only the recognition of the Greek Cypriot Administration is devoid of moral value and justice.
The Greek Cypriot Administration of Cyprus is still following a policy that is disconnected from reality, unaware that the paradigm regarding the Cyprus issue has changed. In addition, the fact that the “bi-zonal, bi-communal federal solution model based on political equality” has failed many times reveals the false loyalty of the Greek Cypriot side to this model.
This hypocrisy has become a part of the daily policy of the Greek Cypriot leadership. The Greek Cypriot side, on the one hand, hindering the socio-economic development of the Turkish Cypriots with inhuman isolation, and on the other hand, complaining about the deepening of our diplomatic and economic relations with Turkey, our only gateway to the world, is just one of the examples of this hypocrisy.
Contrary to what the Greek Cypriot Foreign Ministry claims, the solution option in Cyprus based on the sovereign equality of the two States is not an imposition, but the only realistic and sustainable option. The persistence of the United Nations Security Council on the federal solution model, which has been offered as a prescription in Cyprus for more than 50 years but has already been exhausted as an option, is an imposition. An acceptable and sustainable agreement will be reached by confirming the sovereign equality of the TRNC before starting formal negotiations.
In the statement, it was stated that the TRNC, as a respected member of the international community and a culture of tolerance, will continue to progress and develop rapidly by protecting its rights, despite all injustices and difficulties, together with Motherland Turkey, which pioneers the establishment of peace, tranquility and cooperation.
