By Security Council Resolutions 541 and 550, the so-called declaration of independence by the Turkish Cypriot side and the proclamation of the pseudo-state were declared legally null and void.
The United Nations has called on all countries not to recognize any state in Cyprus other than the Republic of Cyprus.
The government, the church, political parties, and organized groups unequivocally condemn this illegal and secessionist act.
In the occupied territories, provocative celebrations are taking place in the presence of Turkish Vice President Cevdet Yılmaz—marking the forty-third anniversary of the declaration of the illegal entity.
Around 10 a.m., the Turkish Vice President will attend and speak—alongside the occupying leader—at the parade to be held in occupied Nicosia.
According to the Cyprus News Agency, at 3:00 p.m., the Turkish Air Force’s aerobatic team, the “Turkish Stars,” will perform a provocative display in front of the “Atatürk” monument in occupied Kyrenia.
In the evening, the Turkish vice president will attend a reception hosted by Tufan Erhurman.
