Under the title “Is Varosha being returned”, Turkish Cypriot daily Bakis reports that the occupied fenced city of Varosha is about to be returned to its legal Greek Cypriot owners and that secret bargaining is being held on this issue.
Citing a reliable source, the paper writes that the bargaining on Varosha continues at “full speed” and it will soon come to light.
The source noted that in return for the opening of Varosha, the illegal Tymvou airport and the occupied Famagusta port will open to international flights and trade under the administration of the EU or the UN. It also said that the withdrawal of the lawsuits of the Greek Cypriots at the European Court of Human Rights against Turkey regarding Varosha is on the agenda, but no definite agreement exists on this issue.
The paper writes that it expects from the “officials” to make a clear statement on these issues.
