According to the Press and Information Office, the T/C press reports that Mr. Tatar said that an agreement on the basis of federation, zero troops, zero guarantees and Turkey's withdrawal from the island would be the "biggest betrayal" in the great struggle taking place in the Eastern Mediterranean, and wished that such a deal would not be on the agenda from now on.
Arguing that Turkey's guarantees and the presence of the Turkish army are the only guarantee for the Turks of Cyprus to live in peace, security and tranquility, he said that it is useful to be reminded of this because the Cyprus problem is still on the agenda of the international community.
He reiterated that their new policy is being implemented with the full support of Turkey and argued that the world appreciates this.
Expressing the view that "the Western imperialist powers", in his words, have left Ukraine alone, Ersin Tatar said that "we will never risk our future."
Moreover, the "chairman" of the "parliament", Zorlu Torre met with a delegation of the "committee for the promotion of the Turkish Armed Forces Strengthening Foundation" in occupied Cyprus. He claimed that they made these lands their homeland with the blood of "fighters" and Turkish soldiers and added that today they are defending their future and independence, values which he described as very important.
Noting that they want disarmament all over the world and do not want wars to take place but wars continue, Torre said that some powerful countries are trying to rule some other countries with their military power and economic sanctions.
Arguing that the most obvious example of this is happening in Ukraine and Palestine, Torre claimed that Turkey has always been a deterrent force in the region and the most important reason for this is the fact that it has a strong military.
In his own remarks, the chairman of the "committee", Talip Sanjiar, said that significant efforts are being made to develop Turkey's local and national defense industry.
Noting that large companies such as Roketsan and Aselsan are in the bosom of the foundation, Mr. Sanjiar said that Turkey produces many military instruments such as attack helicopters and unmanned aerial vehicles on its own.
Noting that they paid their first visit to the "parliament" after opening an office in the occupied territories, Sanjiar said that the stronger Turkey is in defense means, the stronger the pseudo-state will be.
