Announcement by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Cyprus regarding on the illegal visit of the President of Türkiye to the occupied areas

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Cyprus condemns the illegal visit of the President of Türkiye, Mr Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, and other Turkish officials to the occupied areas of the Republic of Cyprus, for the celebration of the sombre anniversary of the Turkish invasion.

This action adds to the ongoing, fifty-one-year-long violations against the sovereignty, independence, and territorial integrity of the Republic of Cyprus, which the international community has repeatedly condemned through the relevant United Nations (UN) Security Council Resolutions.

The Government remains committed to the ultimate goal of the liberation and reunification of Cyprus, based on the agreed UN framework, through a viable solution, as dictated by international law – one that will guarantee the rights and well-being of all Cypriots.
