A delegation from Turkey arrives in the occupied territories today and tomorrow will have consultations on the implementation of the economic "protocol" with the pseudo-state.
According to TC media, "Deputy Prime Minister" Hussein Amziyaoglu said that for a day and a half they will discuss "several points. We will discuss the work of many institutions, we will see what has been done and all the other problems we have faced. We will talk about the problems in the agriculture and livestock sector, budgetary issues, the transfer of (financial) resources based on the protocol, the improvement of air ticket prices related to tourism and we will see if there has been progress or not."
Mr. Amziyaoglu said that they have submitted their demands to Ankara, such as the conversion of ferry fees from dollars to TL.
He also said that the barrier committee is continuing its work in terms of improving conditions for faster crossings and recruitments will be made in this regard. Infrastructure improvements will also be made, he added. Referring specifically to the Pergamon barrier, he said that crossings there have become "a torture" and some initiatives have been taken "to develop this gate (the Pergamon barrier) and different crossing points."
