The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Türkiye made a written statement on the press statement of the UN Security Council on Cyprus. The statement by the Foreign Ministry is as follows:
“We fully support the statement of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus (TRNC) concerning the UN Security Council’s press statement following the consultations during which Mr. Colin Stewart, Special Representative of the UN Secretary-General and Head of the UN Peacekeeping Force in Cyprus (UNFICYP), presented the UN Secretary-General’s recently published reports on the Good Offices Mission and UNFICYP.
Detached from the realities on the ground, the UN Security Council continues to insist on a settlement model from which the Turkish Cypriot side has openly withdrawn its support and which has been tried and has failed many times. All parties should realize that a federal settlement goal no longer reflects the sovereign will of the Turkish Cypriot people.
Instead of promoting a settlement in Cyprus, this Security Council stance, which is increasingly distant from the basis provided by the UN Secretary-General’s reports, is fueling the Greek Cypriot side’s intransigent attitude that disregards the Turkish Cypriots, the ancient and original co-owners of the Island. We expect the Security Council to comprehend the fact that the Turkish Cypriots have withdrawn their support from the settlement model discussed in the past.
We emphasize once again that a just, lasting, and sustainable settlement to be reached in Cyprus must reflect the will of the two peoples on the Island and cannot be imposed by third parties.
We call on the UN Security Council and the international community to take into account the fact that there are two separate peoples and two separate states on the Island of Cyprus and to reaffirm the inherent rights of the Turkish Cypriot people, namely their sovereign equality and equal international status. We underline that this is an indispensable precondition for the start of any new negotiation process towards the settlement of the Cyprus issue.”

We have to let them know that we are capable of being without any support, as before, only if we have an alternative.
As Always our Options will always have to be available with the support of Türkiye.
Yes we do have an Alternative to waiting for Handouts that have never happened From Anyone Else But Türkiye, And that has to be a Con Federation with Türkiye.
In this Event, the Turkish Republic of Cyprus, will maintain its own Parliamentary System AS Türkiye, Plus share its International Identity.
Like Switzerland with its Kenton’s .
Whatever is Available to Türkiye, will be available to the Turkish Republic of Cyprus, like International Shipping, Travel and Tourism.
But We must get this Published in a Joint Statement with Türkiye, Before the International Communities, Sooner rated then Later.
