12 January, 2017Çavuşoğlu: “The continuation of the ‘security and guarantees’ which have been the mainstay of the security and stability of the country for 43 years is essential”
13 January, 2017The Presidential Spokesperson Barış Burcu stated that the map which was presented by the Greek Cypriot side to the UN Secretary General yesterday was not acceptable for the Turkish Cypriot community and that President Mustafa Akıncı sent a letter to UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres in this regard.
In his statement, following yesterday’s session of the five-party Cyprus conference in Geneva, Burcu said: “We are actually ready to continue the conference tomorrow (today). As the Turkish Cypriot side, we have done all kinds of work. Turkey and the UK also expressed the same view with us, but Greece has stated it wants to postpone it for 10 days for additional preparation. Anastasiades also wanted to postpone the conference. The date they proposed was January 23, but they decided on January 18th since it was a late date.”
“Special representatives today (yesterday) received a new task in order to build working groups quickly and prepare themselves for next week,” Burcu added.
