Daily News of Life and times in North Cyprus goes around the world
Speaking at the General Council of the TRNC Assembly, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs Kudret Özersay said that the EU had assumed an attitude which ignored the interests of Turkish Cypriots, after the Greek Cypriot side became a member of the EU. Özersay added that this attitude harms the standing of the EU.
The Cyprus issue was on the agenda of this week’s summit in Varna, Bulgaria, led by Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, European Council President Donald Tusk and European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker. During the summit, President Erdoğan called the EU to be fair on the Cyprus issue.
Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs Kudret Özersay has stated that any economic activity carried out in the region which ignores the will of the Turkish Cypriots will not be successful, adding, “We will not allow either the Greek Cypriots or affiliated companies to carry out unilateral hydrocarbon activities on behalf of the Turkish Cypriots.”
