Prime Minister Dervis Eroglu held a press conference to announce that his government would continue to work on developing an economic rescue plan for the Republic. All ministers were present at the press conference which was held at the Foreign Ministry’s Conference Hall.

Addressing the most pressing issue of our times, Prime Minister Dervis Eroglu said that for the TRNC’s economy to be revived there was a need for an expanding economic policy.
‘And for this to happen we need a new tax packet that includes the majority of the people to come into affect’, he said.

Pointing to the importance of increasing employment opportunities in the private sector, the Prime minister said the private sector must be supported so it can develop further.
Also touching upon his concerns on the Cyprus issue, Prime Minister Eroglu noted that the Greek Cypriot administration was continuing its intransigent stance on the Cyprus issue.

‘We are very embarrassed that the Greek Cypriot administration is being accepted as the only legal government in Cyprus by the United States, Britain, Russia, China and the European Unions’, said Eroglu.

‘Now the Greek Cypriot Administration is using this situation to give permission for researches to be carried out for natural gas and petrol. This behavior of ignoring international law is negatively affecting the negotiations process in Cyprus’, he added.

The Prime Minister said his government is determined to continue its stance on the Cyprus issue in harmony with President Talat and Motherland Turkey.

‘Our parameters are clear; there are two peoples in Cyprus and two states. Due to this fact we want a new partnership to be established based on equal sovereignty, bizonality should not be diluted and Turkey’s active and effective guarantees over the island should be safeguarded’, said Eroglu.

He stressed that we continue to support the negotiations process with good will but this does not mean that we will give up our rights and interests.

He concluded by saying that ‘we cannot wait forever for the Greek Cypriot side, we want our people to be sure of their future. Either the ongoing negotiations process brings a positive and balanced outcome and a viable solution is found, or everyone goes on their way.

The article is misleading with the title "EROGLU ANNOUNCES NEW ECONOMIC MEASURES FOR TRNC"...coz it announces nothing regarding economic measures...

The only economic measure this eroglu announced in recent times is him prostituting himself for another loan...to feed the party's cronies...

Can't help wondering if the recent "Cyprus Turks" and the loan approval has anything to do with each other...

"ECONOMIC RESCUE PLAN"

The key word is rescue. No one had said anything about a disaster from which they need rescue, they let it creep up on the people.

Hmm… is there such a thing as a bankruptcy rescue plan?

I personally think there is going to be big tax hike on everyone in the north, so that the civil servants can get their unwarranted salaries, just because they want the same income as other countries in the region.

Some of the tax package details have leaked…

1. Stolen artifacts tax.
2. GC land prostitution tax.
3. Illegal Syrian migrant tax.
4. Jacks or better tax.
5. Non abandonment of Turkish Cypriot words tax.

Looking at this situation from the point of view of the TC who is not a civil servant, not connected to the "clique" that exploits GC property, it is easy to see how the situation sucks. But having allowed a majority of imported settlers to obtain voting rights these TCs are frustrated and marginalised. Basically the only choice left is to move away.

Greek TV had a short interview with Eroglu some time ago. He lost relatives in the 1963 clashes and these events color his personality and his politics. The man comes through more as anti GC than pro Turkish.
