No decision has been taken to open a new beach in Varosi, as the Greek side claims, some improvement works have begun on a beach that is currently open for use, mainly for safety reasons, for the benefit of those who use it, according to a statement. Ministry of Foreign Affairs "in the occupied territories.
In the announcement issued on Saturday, following the reactions on the e / k side, the "sub" claims that the fenced area of Famagusta belongs to the pseudo-state and the only "competent authority" for Varosi is the "tdbk". In addition, he added, the authorities of the pseudo-state will not receive approval from any authority, especially the e / k side, regarding the steps to be taken in Varosi.
He also claims that while there are far more important issues in the world, it is a "great sign of irresponsibility" that the "e / k administration", as the government of the Republic calls it, is busy "deceiving both the UN and other regional and international institutions ".
The position that they did not open a new beach, but do cleaning and security work in "public spaces" inside Varos, was repeated by the "mayor" of Famagusta, Ismail Arter.
Speaking today to the correspondent of the Turkish news agency Anatoli, Mr. Arter said that while the gradual opening of Varos, which began on October 8, 2020, lasts, in the "municipality" of Famagusta, improvement works are being done in the beach area that opened last year.
The second stage of the opening of Varosi, Mr. Arter added, took place last July with the declassification of a 3,5% area from military to urban. "In this context, at the beginning of last summer, two beaches with a total length of more than 800 meters were offered to the public in the public (municipal property) part of Varosi and the improvements in the area continue."
Work continued on "beach 1" - as he called it - which is very close to the entrance to the fenced area and where cots and umbrellas were placed. Lifeguards have also been installed.
It does not concern, he said, the opening of a new beach, while commenting on the reactions on the Greek side, he said that the Greek Cypriots, instead of reacting, should try to create a climate that will allow the negotiation of the Cyprus issue at the negotiating table.
