Burcu: “The elimination of the commemoration of the Enosis Plebiscite in schools will enable the resumption of the negotiation process”

The TRNC Presidential Spokesperson Barış Burcu has stated that if the Greek Cypriot Parliament takes the necessary steps to eliminate the commemoration of the Enosis plebiscite at schools as soon as possible, this would pave the way to the resumption of the negotiation process. Speaking yesterday, Barış Burcu said that they welcomed the decision taken by the relevant committee of the Greek Cypriot Parliament with the cooperation of AKEL-DISI.

Pointing out that the misguided decision to commemorate the 1950 Enosis Plebiscite at schools has been voiced by more Greek Cypriots every day, Burcu said that these developments are very welcome.

“President Akıncı has informed the UN Special Envoy Espen Barth Eide that he will be ready to meet with Greek Cypriot leader Anastasiades in a social setting at the end of March after the positive decision of the Greek Cypriot Parliamentary committee, and that the official negotiations may resume” said Presidential Spokesperson Burcu.
