Yıldırım: “Turkey’s full and effective guarantee cannot be discussed”

Prime Minister Binali Yıldırım discussed the Cyprus question with members of the press at the Turkish Grand National Assembly.

Yıldırım said that Turkey’s full and effective guarantee cannot be discussed in the negotiations, as without it Cyprus could return to the period 1960’s and 70’s.

Furthermore, the Prime Minister added that “If a solution is reached in Cyprus, the administration should be fair, the rights of the communities should be under guarantee, and four fundamental freedoms should be provided.”

“Turkey should be treated as having entered into the EU in terms of Cyprus”.
