T/Cypriot party criticise Eroglu’s statements of 2 sovereign states

BKP criticized Eroglu’s statement that two “states and peoples” exist in Cyprus

Turkish Cypriot daily Afrika newspaper (18.08.11) reports that Abdullah Korkmazhan, the organizational secretary of the United Cyprus Party (BKP) criticized the Turkish Cypriot leader, Dervis Eroglu, who stated that two “sovereign states and peoples” exist in Cyprus. Eroglu made these statements at a ceremony on the occasion of the celebrations for the 37th anniversary from the occupation of Lefka.

Korkmazhan said that with these statements Eroglu showed how far he is from an early solution to the Cyprus problem. He went on and added that on the 7th July summit in Geneva both Eroglu and President Christofias committed to the UN Secretary-General to work towards finding a federal solution and establish a united Cyprus. “Eroglu’s policy is inconsistent and haphazard”, he stated.
