Statement from TRNC regarding the visit of Palestinian President Abbas to the Greek Cypriot Administration of Southern Cyprus

TRNC Ministry of Foreign Affairs made a statement regarding the visit of Palestinian President Abbas to the Greek Cypriot Administration of Southern Cyprus from the social media platform of the US-based company X. In the statement, it was stated that Abbas's visit to the Greek Cypriot Administration of Southern Cyprus and his announcement that the Cyprus issue would be discussed during his meeting with the leader of the Greek Cypriot Administration of Southern Cyprus, Nikos Christodoulides, were carefully noted.

In the statement, it was stated that the Turkish Cypriot people have always wholeheartedly supported the right to self-determination and legitimate struggle of the Palestinian people, and the following was noted:

"In line with this strong historical solidarity, we would like to emphasize our expectation that the legitimate rights and sensitivities of the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus will be taken into account. In light of the fact that there are two separate peoples and two separate states on the island, this visit, which was carried out by ignoring the will of the Turkish Cypriot people, was met with sadness by the Turkish Cypriot people."
