Speaking at the ceremony on Dr Faz\u0131l K\u00fc\u00e7\u00fck Boulevard as part of the 15 November Republic Day celebrations, the Speaker of the Grand National Assembly of T\u00fcrkiye (TBMM) Mustafa \u015eentop said it is a great pleasure to be in the TRNC, representing the President of the Republic of T\u00fcrkiye, Recep Tayyip Erdo\u011fan, on the occasion of the 39th anniversary of the TRNC.<\/p>\n
In his speech, \u015eentop stated that T\u00fcrkiye and the TRNC have been making great efforts for a just, comprehensive and sustainable solution to the Cyprus issue and for peace and stability to prevail in the Eastern Mediterranean region for decades.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Stating that international institutions, especially the UN Security Council, which could not show an effective and solution-oriented presence, encouraged the Greek Cypriots to a deadlock with the decisions taken, \u015eentop stressed that the Greek Cypriots have left the negotiations inconclusive for decades, deeming the deadlock as a gain, and that they have been wasting time with their distraction tactics.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Stating that from now on it will be possible for the two states to negotiate cooperation between themselves, Mustafa \u015eentop said, “It is clear that such a solution will contribute to cooperation not only in the Island but also in the Eastern Mediterranean region.”<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\u015eentop stated that the UN member states should recognize the TRNC as Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdo\u011fan clearly emphasized at the UN General Assembly and that the recognition of the TRNC would solve the deadlock on the Cyprus issue and added that T\u00fcrkiye has been exerting efforts towards this purpose with all institutions and organizations.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Noting that the TRNC’s admission as an observer member to the Organization of Turkic States was a concrete first step of these efforts, \u015eentop emphasized that this decision is a milestone for the the TRNC as well as for Turkic World because, the TRNC obtained this status in an international organization with its constitutional name for the first time.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Underlining that the TRNC will be recognized sooner or later, \u015eentop said that the Turkish Cypriot people will have a prosperous future and T\u00fcrkiye will always stand by their side.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
