ΦΩΝΗ ΚΥΠΡΙΩΝ – KIBRISLILARIN SESİ – CYPRIOTS’ VOICE
Communiqué
- Cypriots’ Voice, having convened on 12 February 2010 and having considered the present phase of the negotiating process, welcome the significant progress that has been announced by the UN with regards to the outcomes of the intensive talks on the governance issue and calls upon the leaders of the two communities to further intensify their efforts and proceed to a new round of intensive talks. Cyprus needs commitment, vision, and flexibility. We will need even more courage and determination in the period ahead to bring these talks to a successful conclusion.
- Cypriots’ Voice, considering that time is running out, feel the need to call upon the two leaders to be ready, during the forthcoming talks, to take the necessary political decisions which will lead to an agreement the soonest possible.
- They also appeal to all peace loving people in both communities to make their voice heard that they are for the reunification of our country into a bizonal bicommunal federation within the European Union and they oppose the continuation of the separation of the two communities that is leading to a permanent partition of our country.
- Last but not least, they appeal to the Government of Turkey to facilitate solution by openly taking positions on the crucial issues that are still pending in line with UN and EU resolutions, thereby pressing the interlocutors to go ahead and sending the message to the people so that to rally in support of the solution.
