TURKISH FM SAYS NO CHANGE IN ANKARA’S CYPRUS POLICY NOW THAT IS A NON-PERMANENT MEMBER OF UN SECURITY COUNCIL

Evaluating Turkey’s non-permanent membership to the UN Security Council on Turkish news channel NTV, Babacan stressed that there was no change to Turkey’s positions on foreign policy issues.

Reminded about that the Greek Cypriot Administration did not welcome Turkey’s membership, Babacan ruled out any change’s on Ankara’s policy on the Cyprus Issue.

“Whatever we have said on the Cyprus Problem we shall continue to say once we become a member of the Security Council” he said, adding that Turkey will maintain its principled attitude on the Cyprus Problem.

The Turkish Foreign Minister said that countries which voted for Turkey expected Ankara to preserve its unique perspective and approach on foreign policy issues.

“We are a country which takes on initiatives and which produces positive approaches on many issues. No one should expect a change in our foreign policy” Babacan said.

There has never been an open official disclosure of Turkey's Cyprus policy.
