24 May, 2016Akıncı: “It is time to act with responsibility to create a bi-zonal, bi-communal federal Cyprus”
24 May, 2016Academician-Author Prof. Dr. Niyazi Kızılyürek stated that the result of the parliamentarian elections in South Cyprus proved that there is an important anti-solution block ahead of us, and “separate living” has become strong.
Kızılyürek added that the greatest surprise in the elections was the increasing votes of the extreme rightist ELAM with the rate of 2.6%. Kızılyürek also expressed that the decrease of AKEL’s votes was not expected.
Furthermore, adding that AKEL-DISI- Anastasiades trio should work much more to gain “yes” votes at a possible referendum, Kızılyürek noticed that there is a Greek Cypriot parliament which includes 8 parties and the Greek Cypriot government which has no legislative majority will experience some difficulties.
It was also reported that according to the elections held in 2011, AKEL have lost 42.000 votes and DISI have lost 30.857 votes throughout South Cyprus. (Kıbrıs Postası)
