Occupied Famagusta: Ceremony of handing over generators from Turkey

The two 25 megawatt generators that Turkey donated to the pseudo-state for the production of electricity arrived in the occupied territories in the morning and the "prime minister", Unal Ustel, the "minister of finance", Sunat Atun and the "deputy" were present at the port of Famagusta for the handover ceremony prime minister" and "minister of tourism", Fikri Ataoglou.

As reported in the occupied territories, Mr Ustel stated that the generators would start working within 10 days. They all thanked the Turkish President and Vice President for the donation.

And while the announcements of the "electricity authority" continue every day about power outages in various areas - today they occurred in Lefka - Unal Ustel called on people to use electricity carefully, noting that the price of fuel has increased and that's why the cost of energy production.

Insufficient production, fuel supply difficulties and the financial problems of the "electricity authority" are the three biggest problems in the energy sector in the occupied territories, Sunat Atun said. He added that the debt of the "authority", which reaches 2 billion TL, has begun to be paid.

Speaking in the "parliament" yesterday, Mr. Atun said that the "electricity authority" is now an unsustainable institution. In the meantime, the "parliament" approved yesterday with a majority that the debt of the "authority" to the private electricity production company AKSA be considered a "state" debt and to be repaid by the "government".

Reacting to this, the president of the "authority" workers' union, EL Sen, Kubilai Ozkirats said that it is now official that the "minister of finance" acts as a representative of AKSA and not as a "minister" of the "country". Having been appointed head of the "ministry" to which the "authority" is subordinate, many times - said the trade unionist about Mr Atun - he behaves again "ridiculous in the eyes of the world". He also criticized him for wanting to bankrupt the "electricity authority" and to give "peshkesi" to private individuals, but "in this business of Atun we will not let him have a way out".
