Turkish Cypriot leader Ersin Tatar has begun contacts for the formation of a new "government" in the occupied territories. On Thursday he had meetings with the Renaissance Party, the People's Party and the Democratic Party, while tomorrow he will see the Republican Turkish Party and the National Unity Party.
After the meeting with Tatar, CA leader Erhan Arikli described the situation as "unexpected and a serious crisis" and added that the problem that arose after the resignation of the "government" should be resolved as soon as possible.
Arikli went on to say that the first option is the formation of a broad-based technocratic government by the two major parties (CEC and PTK) and the latter a new "government" that would be a continuation of the existing one (CEC, PP, CA).
In response to a question, he said that if a "government" cannot be formed, then there is also the possibility of early "elections."
For his part, Kudret Ojersai said that "our feeling is that a vague scenario has been written," adding that "we do not want to have a role in it, the same government will be formed, but it looks like an attempt to form a new government."
Saying that they do not wish to take part in this game, he described the developments as "fantasy" and added that the "mandate" should be given to Soudzouoglu and the "cabinet" should be formed without any waste of time.
For his part, PP leader Fikri Ataoglu said Tatar had accepted the resignation of the "government" and that he believed he would give a "mandate" as soon as possible.
He added that he believes all political parties want a "government" to be formed, taking into account the future of the "country", as he referred to the occupied territories, and the economic problems.
