President Ersin Tatar and Turkish Foreign Minister Mevl\u00fct \u00c7avu\u015fo\u011flu held a joint press conference after their tete-a-tete meeting and inter delegations meeting.<\/p>\n
Speaking at the press conference, President Tatar pointed out that it is not possible to accept the Greek Cypriot leader’s confidence-building proposals aimed at violating the sovereignty rights of the Turkish Cypriots, and stated that the Turkish Cypriot side will present proposals for the cooperation of the two states in the near future.<\/p>\n
\u00c7avu\u015fo\u011flu noted that the sovereign equality and equal status of the Turkish Cypriots must be registered for launching the new negotiations and being successful. “If there is going to be a negotiation, it will be between two states, not two communities,” \u00c7avu\u015fo\u011flu said.<\/p>\n
Stating that the proposals presented by the Greek Cypriot leader are not new and that the aim is to dilute the negotiation process, \u00c7avu\u015fo\u011flu said, \u201cThe Turkish Cypriot side will offer cooperation proposals in the following days. If the Greek Cypriots are sincere, they will take this into account.\u201d<\/p>\n
Mentioning the developments regarding Mara\u015f, \u00c7avu\u015fo\u011flu noted that Mara\u015f is TRNC territory and that the steps taken within the framework of the initiative are not against international law.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
