In his speech to all OIC member countries and country delegations \u00d6zersay said that the TRNC cannot remain unresponsive to the developments in the world, adding that it would take part in the platforms where the international community comes together to discuss global issues and act together.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Foreign Minister Kudret \u00d6zersay also emphasized that all parties should question why the negotiations ended with failure and added that an approach to immediately start negotiations in any case would mean to make Turkish Cypriots enslaves of the status quo.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u00d6zersay underlined that the Turkish Cypriot people did not want to be part of a vicious cycle, with a new negotiation process that would again remain inconclusive.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cIt is possible to say that the Greek Cypriot side, which has been allowed to obtain whatever they want without solving the Cyprus issue under current conditions, has no intention of reaching a consensus for a solution. Furthermore, this has created a mentality which refuses to share power and prosperity with the Turkish Cypriots. As long as these conditions remain the same, it is important for everyone to question this situation and ask themselves how it is meaningful to wait for this mentality to change,\u201d \u00d6zersay said.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Referring to the previous decisions taken by the OIC in the past, \u00d6zersay called on the member countries to act according to these decisions.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">On the side-lines of the conference, Minister \u00d6zersay held bilateral meetings with the Foreign Ministers of Canada, Azerbaijan, Kosovo, and Afghanistan. Meanwhile, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs Kudret \u00d6zersay met with Turkish Deputy Prime Minister Bekir Bozda\u011f.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs Kudret \u00d6zersay attended the 45th\u00a0Session of the Council<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":[19],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-141270","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news-headlines"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/pio.mfa.gov.ct.tr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/141270","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=141270"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/pio.mfa.gov.ct.tr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/141270\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/pio.mfa.gov.ct.tr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=141270"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pio.mfa.gov.ct.tr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=141270"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pio.mfa.gov.ct.tr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=141270"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
