Former Turkish Cypriot Chief Negotiator and Academic Kudret Özersay has completed his workings towards forming a new party.

Kudret Özersay along with the founding members of the new party to be formed handed in an application to register the new political party to the Interior and Labour Ministry yesterday morning.

He held a press conference at the Cyprus Turkish Chamber of Commerce to inform the public regarding the new party that was officially established today.

‘The People’s Party (Halkın Partisi-HP) was formed after several months of hard work and exchanging views with a variety of visits with different circles’ said Özersay during the press conference.

He said there was a need for a rooted change in Turkish Cypriot politics and a new political understanding.

Touching upon the Cyprus issue in a press release, it noted that the People’s Party will support a solution that will be accepted by the two peoples on the island.

‘A balanced solution that protects the rights and interests of the two peoples on the island and where there are no losers is what the People’s Party supports’ noted the statement.
