QA-9, 11 Febuary 2020, Statement of the Spokesperson of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Mr. Hami Aksoy in Response to a Question Regarding Some Allegations in the Greek Cypriot Press

The news in the Greek Cypriot Press alleging that Turkey has accepted the removal of the guarantee system in Cyprus are not true.

Turkey's position concerning the guarantee system established by 1960 London and Zurich Treaties is clear.

Turkey emphasizes on every occasion that a just and comprehensive settlement in the Island will be only possible by ensuring the Turkish Cypriots’ political equality and responding to their security concerns.
