PRESIDENT TALAT CRITICISED YORGOS YAKOVU FOR LEAVING THE TABLE

President Mehmet Ali Talat has said that there is no link between the new negotiations process to be launched this week and the rejection of the demand by Greek Cypriots to use the Yesilırmak Gate for the religious ceremony at Ayios Mamas in the North.

President Talat and Greek Cypriot Leader Demetris Christofias will meet on Wednesday to launch the new negotiations process with the aim of finding a lasting solution to the Cyprus problem.

Responding to reporters’ questions on the issue, the President criticised Yorgos Yakovu, an aide to the Greek Cypriot Leader for leaving last Friday’s meeting between him and Presidential adviser Özdil Nami after being informed of the Turkish Cypriot Side’s decision.

He said the Turkish Cypriot Side had faced similar situations several times in the past but hadn’t left the negotiations table, adding that Yakovu should not have left the table for such a reason.

The President said the Turkish Cypriot Side had never left the table in spite of the rhetoric of insult used in the Greek Cypriot press against the Turkish Cypriot Side.

Mr Talat stressed that the rejection of the Greek Cypriot villagers’ demand has nothing to do with the talks, the new negotiations process and the opening of new crossing points between the two sides.

He explained that the decision on the issue was taken after the evaluation of the Greek Cypriot application to the United Nations on the issue.

`These are issues, which sometimes, we are not even informed. Because, the issue is concerning the police, security and the Foreign Ministry’, the President said.

He noted that the decision was taken after it was seen that a mass crossing through Yesilırmak could lead to some problems.

Meanwhile, President Mehmet Ali Talat has met with leaders and representatives of political parties to make an evaluation of the situation before his meeting with the Greek Cypriot leader.

I think this decision is the wrong one!!!

If the problem was controlling a large number of cars coming across, then surely one or two courtesy buses could have been laid on. How many people were planning to make the trip, anyway?

[Nikitas]

About three hundred people were estimated to be crossing from Limnitis. Most would go through the Nicosia and Zodia crossings.
