Presidential candidate George Kolokasidis met with President Anastasiades at the Presidential Palace today, during which they discussed, among other things, the proposal for Confidence Building Measures, the Cyprus problem and developments after the Ukrainian issue.
According to relevant information, Mr Kolokasidis told the President of the Republic that the proposal to open the illegal airport of Tymbos, as well as the exploitation of hydrocarbon revenues in the framework of the implementation of MEAs, constitutes a dangerous development, which undermines the real essence of the Cyprus problem as an issue of invasion and continued occupation and adversely affects the efforts for a solution. Therefore, he suggested to Mr. Anastasiades to call on Turkey to implement real MEAs concerning the clarification of the fate of the missing persons and the protection of those trapped in the occupied areas.
Further, Mr. Kolokasidis asked Mr. Anastasiades to call on Turkey to implement real MEAs concerning the clarification of the fate of the missing persons and the protection of those trapped in the occupied areas.
Further, Mr. Kolokasidis asked Mr. Anastasiades to make public all documents relating to the negotiations during the period 2014 - 2021 so that the Cypriot people know the real content of what was discussed, the concessions made by our side and the so-called convergences that have been reached.
In his statements after the meeting, Kolokasidis noted that it is unthinkable for the Turkish side to know the exact content of the documents and for the Cypriot people to be in the dark. He added that it is a matter of the proper functioning of democracy to have transparency and control over the proposals and concessions of our side and the citizens have every right to know what is being discussed for their future and the future of their country. Kolokasidis thanked the President of the Republic for the meeting, adding that it was agreed to have a new round of contacts on the Cyprus issue.
