Andalou Agency: Cyprus Negotiations Should Resume Soon - TRNC Minister

Talks between the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus and the Greek Cypriot administration should resume soon, TRNC Environment and Natural Resources Minister Hakan Dincyurek told AA on Monday.

Until now, the Greek Cypriot administration has imposed various condtitions to restarting talks with the TRNC. "But now we believe that they will resume negotiations without any preconditions," Dincyurek said.

"The Greek Cypriot administration has seen the international community’s reaction to their leaving the negotiation table while it was win-win situation for some, and while it was a give-and-take situation for others. They left the table when both sides were about to make some decisions. This kind of politics is not acceptable," he said.

Dincyurek said that the Greek Cypriot exploration for natural gas and hydrocarbon resources is making things difficult to find solutions in the island, and that is unacceptable.
