Burcu said that on the subject of territory criteria studies were made but the map and percentages were not discussed.<br \/>\nBurcu touched on previous statements by Akinci where he said that he was not a magician with a magic wand; what he meant here was that if there were no reciprocal efforts from other parties, it would be hard to find a settlement on the island. He said everyone needed to \u2018put their hand\u2019 under the stone. He recapped on Akinci\u2019s three dimensional approaches to the process \u2013 psychological, physical and tangible dimensions.<br \/>\nHe noted that the new jargon and new process was supported by actions of the leaders both in social meetings and with confidence building measures.<br \/>\nBurcu said that on the subjects of Security and Guarantees, only the internal security was discussed and there were 5 papers on these subjects.<br \/>\nBurcu explained that one of the principles Akinci wanted was to have a speedy and effective negotiation process with the participation of the UN. Nothing is agreed until everything is agreed principle is still in play here today he added. Despite wanting a speedy process, there was no timetable. On the issue of territory, percentage, locations, names or maps have not been exchanged till now.<br \/>\nBurcu said the 4th leaders meeting to be held on the 29th of June would move onto the discussion of the core issues. Whilst the leaders negotiate, the technical committees will also be contributing to this.<br \/>\nResponding to one question, Burcu said that the process was at a more advanced stage than it had been originally. He said they saw until now that the GC negotiating teams had good will; they wanted political courage from them now as Akinci was leading.<br \/>\nOn another question regarding Varosha and a feasibility study on it, Burcu said that this was a matter which was part of Akinci&#8217;s election propaganda; at present there was no urgent need for a study. But if there is, this can be looked into.<br \/>\nBurcu said that with the 4<sup>th<\/sup>\u00a0leaders meeting a new phase will be entered and continued as: \u201cSearching and scanning have been completed. We are starting the substantial negotiations on 29<sup>th<\/sup>\u00a0June with the 4<sup>th<\/sup>\u00a0leaders meeting.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Presidential spokesman Bar\u0131s Burcu indicated that in spite of the fact that there is no timetable,<span class=\"excerpt-hellip\"> [\u2026]<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":9,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[27],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-138604","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-headlines"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/pio.mfa.gov.ct.tr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/138604","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/pio.mfa.gov.ct.tr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/pio.mfa.gov.ct.tr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pio.mfa.gov.ct.tr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/9"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pio.mfa.gov.ct.tr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=138604"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/pio.mfa.gov.ct.tr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/138604\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/pio.mfa.gov.ct.tr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=138604"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pio.mfa.gov.ct.tr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=138604"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pio.mfa.gov.ct.tr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=138604"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
