Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, in his message, said “I sincerely congratulate all my Turkish Cypriot brothers and sisters on the occasion of the 39th anniversary of the establishment of the TRNC.”
Erdoğan stated that they aim to ensure that the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus gains the place it deserves in the international arena and becomes a state that can stand on its own feet politically, socially and economically.
In his message, he also drew attention to the fact that reaching a just and sustainable solution to the Cyprus issue can only be possible with the registration of the sovereign equality and equal international status of the Turkish Cypriot people, which is the main element of the island.
“Despite the fact that the United Nations Security Council has not taken a step in this direction, I believe that the international community will approach your call for the recognition of the TRNC with common sense and fairness. We know that the proposals submitted last July by your Excellency, showing the will to cooperate for the solution of the common problems of the island, are factors that will respond to the needs of the two states and the two peoples on the island, and ultimately facilitate the solution of the Cyprus issue, and we support these proposals” Erdoğan added.
