New threats against the Republic of Cyprus launches Turkey On the occasion of statements by the Archbishop Cyprus Georgiou on Turkish effort to occupy and Turkishization of the island.
As Archbishop of Cyprus George said in his Easter message, “Turkey saves time by seeking realization of its new goals. It refines the Kofopa, with the unlawful aim of the occupation and Turkishization of all Cyprus. “
Ankara accuses the Greek Cypriots of establishing a new terrorist organization, while characterizing the statements of the Archbishop of Cyprus a clear manifestation of the mentality of discrimination, fanaticism and provocation in which it attributes the cause of the lack of solution to the island.
“The statements of the Greek Cypriot Archbishop should be evaluated along with the evolution of the establishment of a new terrorist organization, which has been on the agenda in recent weeks. The latest statements are one of the most clear events of the mentality of discrimination, fanaticism and provocation that has so far been the reason for the lack of a solution to the island of Cyprus … “reports from the Turkish Defense Ministry.
According to the Turkish YPAM, “this approach, which fully ignores international law and humanitarian values, targets the legal rights and security of the Turkish Cypriot people. In addition, it should not be forgotten that Cyprus was never a Greek Cypriot island. “
Continuing, the same sources point out that “plans cannot be implemented with similar ideas and this will not be allowed. The Turkish Cypriot people are the real and equal partner of this island and no power will be able to remove it from these territories. ”
In this context, the Turkish Ministry calls on the “EDNK” (Republic of Cyprus) to act with common sense instead of the language of violence and hostility and to contribute to a solution based on the dominant equality of the two peoples. We must not forget that if there is peace on the island of Cyprus today, this is thanks to Turkey. “
“Turkey, as it has done in the past, will not hesitate to use the powers provided by its guarantor status against the activities of the EDNK (Cypriot Republic) that threaten the security of Turkish Cypriots and the environment of peace and stability on the island,” the Turkish YPAM argues.
In the same context, Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidannoted: “Whatever the Greek Cypriots and the EU say, the finished model of the federation has left the table. And this model has retired from the Greek Cypriots themselves. “
