Ersin Tatar[/B] in a written statement issued today, makes allegations of links of the Republic of Cyprus with terrorism and terrorist organisations and refers to a "regional threat", while again coming back to his position of "two states" in Cyprus.
As reported from the occupied territories, Mr. Tatar's statement calls on the "e/K administration", as the Republic of Cyprus is referred to, "to reconsider its relations with terrorism and terrorist organizations and abandon politically motivated cooperation with terrorist organizations that threaten global humanity".
The PYD, which considers it an offshoot of the PKK, has had offices in the free regions with a permit since last January, it says.
With the Ukraine-Russia war, new global security needs have emerged and regional and global cooperation on this issue is being sought, it adds.
With Sweden and Finland's application for NATO membership, he continues, and especially the presence of the "PKK and PYD/YPG terrorist organization" in Sweden, "the motherland Turkey has revealed in documents that these organizations pose a threat to national and regional security."
Turkey, he says. Tatar, made it clear that the application of these two countries for NATO membership cannot proceed because of specific concerns for its own security and stressed (Turkey) the importance of taking steps to address the dangers of these terrorist organizations that threaten world peace.
Ersin Tatar saying that the PKK and the PYD by a decision of the "parliament" in the occupied territories are on the list of "terrorist organizations" argues that the relations of the "e/K administration" in his words - with the PKK poses risks to the security of the "country" and the region and draws attention to this.
He then refers to the past and in particular to the arrest of Abductullah Ocalan, whom he calls a "terrorist leader", who was under the supervision of NIS personnel and had been given - as the TC leader claimed - a fake diplomatic passport of the Republic of Cyprus issued in a specific name. Today, Tatar claims, the G/K side has allowed the terrorist organisation - as it continues to describe the PYD - to open a representative office (in the free areas) and betrayed world peace.
"I take this opportunity to call on the G/K administration of southern Cyprus to abandon this approach, which serves no other purpose than to increase regional tensions and turn terrorism into a secret tool of war," he says.
In the same written statement Ersin Tatar argues that the mentality that gives permission to priests to fire shots, praises the "terrorist" - in his words - organization EOKA, which "was killing TCs and wanted union with Greece, puts the neo-fascist" - again his words - ELAM in parliament, and "cooperates with terrorist organizations" (PKK, PYD), shows (the mentality) once again to everyone, even to independent observers, that the most realistic solution to the Cyprus problem is "two peoples" and "two states" - as it claims - living side by side in good neighbourly relations.
