The primary goal is undoubtedly recognition and to end the ongoing "isolation", which now also affects the human rights of TCs, the new ambassador of Turkey to the occupied territories said, adding that they attached importance to the fact that the pseudo-state was accepted as an observer to the Organization of Turkish States.
As reported from the occupied territories, Metin Feizioglu met today with the "chairman" of the "parliament", Zorlu Torre. What the E/C understand as a solution, he claimed, is to establish their sovereignty in the "north as well. They do not have the concept of 'establish a just federation and let there be two sovereign states in it, and let us be an equal sovereign state in this structure'."
The ultimate goal is the assimilation of Turkish Cypriots and the Hellenization of the island, he argued. Undoubtedly, he continued, the Turkish Republic and the pseudo-state will not allow this. "We will defend the Turkish Cypriot state. Let there be no doubt about it. Turkey is behind this affair with all its forces."
Some may feel uncomfortable with the use of the phrase "mother - homeland" but for us Turkey is always mother - homeland, said the "president" of the "parliament" for his part, saying that if there was no Turkey the resistance of the TCs could not continue and that the "national resistance struggle" was organized because they were waiting for the arrival of Turkey.
The Turkish army, he continued, which was expected after the Ottoman Empire, came as a "regiment of Turkish Cypriot forces" with the guarantee agreements and then with the "Mehmecik heroes at the dawn of 20 July."
The greatest assurance and protection for the TCs, he added, is Turkey and the Turkish army. "Our inspiration is neither the EU nor the SC. Our source of inspiration is the martyrs, the veterans and our motherland Turkey, who allowed us to come this far, and their support. President Erdogan's words 'the world is bigger than five' and 'don't expect justice from the EU' shed light on us. We will continue on our path. Our hearts are united."
Meanwhile, the Turkish "ambassador" had a meeting today at the "embassy" with the T/C Chamber of Commerce during which they discussed the trade relations between Turkey and the pseudo-state and the problems that exist. They also discussed, according to a statement, financial support to businesses in the trade sector, establishing an "International Accredited Food Laboratory" or restoring the existing "State Chemistry Laboratory", privatizing under the BOT system through private and "public" sector cooperation, increasing energy capacities using various energy resources, facilitating entrepreneurs' access to cheap credit, creating and developing the agricultural industry" and training producers in CNA
