19 October, 2017Following her visit to St. Petersburg, Russia for the 137th Inter-Parliamentary Union (IPU) General Assembly, TRNC Speaker of the Assembly Sibel Siber stated that the continuation of the TRNC’s isolation is unacceptable and she has committed to working tirelessly to promote the just cause of the Turkish Cypriot people on every platform.
Evaluating her contact programme during the IPU General Assembly, Siber stated that it is the duty of countries that believe in democracy to lift the political and economic embargoes which affect all aspects of life in the TRNC, including sport, culture and commerce.
Describing the importance of attending such meetings Siber said, “You can only be understood if you explain yourself. Just because you are right doesn’t mean you will receive the treatment you deserve. We must tirelessly voice our just cause at every opportunity and on every platform.”
Siber continued, “We may not be a recognized state but this does not mean we do not possess real, functioning institutions. The UN sends observers for our elections which is why imposing embargoes on MPs elected by our people is unacceptable. I will continue to voice this view on numerous platforms.”
