On Thursday, Cyprus called on Turkey to enter talks aimed at reaching an agreement on demarcating the borders of disputed maritime areas between the two countries, otherwise it will refer the case instead to the International Court of Justice.
According to the Greek newspaper "Ekathimrini", the Minister of Defense of Cyprus, Charalambos Petrides, said in an interview with him today, Thursday, on an Emirati TV channel, that regardless of what the European Union and the United Nations Security Council said about the coastal town of Varosha, the Cypriot coastal Tayyip Erdogan opened the city in a way that conflicts with the Security Council's call to transfer the management of the region to the United Nations.
Petrides pointed out that Erdogan's position on the two-state solution in Cyprus is completely inconsistent with the agreed basis for a two-region and two-sect union stipulated in the relevant UN Security Council resolutions and in line with European Union law, values and principles.
At a time when Cyprus, along with other neighboring and friendly countries, is trying to promote a new regional framework for cooperation from bilateral and tripartite partnerships, and to strengthen and increase cooperation with the European Union Mediterranean powers and other neighboring countries, Turkey is the only country in the region that chooses provocations, escalation, threats and misinformation. As a basis for its foreign policy. ''
