Nami: “Negotiation process has completely collapsed”

Minister of Foreign Affairs Özdil Nami said “Negotiation process has completely collapsed”.

Adding that instead of giving positive messages regarding the negotiations, sides blame each other and it is very difficult to overcome this, FM Nami said that the Greek Cypriot side takes steps backwards in the negotiation process and corrupted confidence building measures with their last proposal.

Moreover, evaluating the statement of US Vice President Joe Biden “Key is in the hands of Turkey” as a populist and unfortunate statement, Nami said that there is not any deadlock in the negotiation process which is caused by Turkey and it is not possible for the Turkish side to overcome the difficulties caused by Greek sources.

Speaking during a programme on Sim TV yesterday, FM Nami evaluated the negotiation process in Cyprus and gave information about his foreign contacts.
