November 11, 2024

The Turkish nationalist opposition criticizes President Tayyip Erdoğan for his meeting with Nikos Christodoulides and Kyriakos Mitsotakis in Copenhagen, questioning the sincerity of the two-state solution. They noted that the presence of Erdoğan's translator implies the meeting was not coincidental. Experts suggest that recognition of the Turkish Cypriot administration is now more challenging, amid pressure from federation supporters. Some politicians urge Erdoğan to leverage the situation for recognition of the Turkish Cypriot state.
