The presidential spokesman Bar\u0131\u015f Burcu has stated that the decision of the Greek Cypriot House of Representatives demanding the cancellation of the Treaties of Guarantee and the withdrawal of Turkish troops from the island is \u201ccompletely unilateral and invalid”.<\/p>\n
Burcu said, \u201cThe Greek Cypriot House of Representatives, which gathered on October 13, took a unilateral and invalid decision demanding the cancellation of the Treaties of Guarantee and the complete withdrawal of Turkish troops from the island. The 1960 Treaties of Guarantee and Alliance are multi-lateral international treaties. These treaties can only be changed or removed by the consent and approval of all signatories. Therefore, the decision of the Greek Cypriot House of Representatives taken unilaterally is null and void. Moreover, the painful experiences and historical facts already invalidate the decision of the Greek Cypriot House of Representatives\u201d.<\/p>\n
Burcu also stressed that Greek Cypriot Administration\u2019s \u201cnegative attitude\u201d caused the Cyprus Conference in Crans Montana to collapse, and Greek Cypriot side always acted against the basic principles of the negotiation process.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs it is known, according to the February 2014 Joint Declaration, it was foreseen that the six chapters should be negotiated in parallel and in an interconnected manner. It is also contrary to the principles and methods of negotiation to discuss the issue of Security and Guarantee alone. Instead of abolishing the “Enosis” resolution taken in 1967, taking such a useless decision does not make a positive contribution to the future of Cyprus. However, the emergence of a new opportunity for a lasting solution, as President Ak\u0131nc\u0131 has stated frequently, can only be achieved if the Greek Cypriot leadership and society change their mentality\u201d Burcu added.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
