In the coming days, the Deryneia-Apliki roadblocks may be opened, said the Turkish leader, Mustafa Akinci, saying that it would be good if they operated on the same day, but if this does not happen, they can be opened very close to each other.
In the coming days, he said, he will discuss the issue of the opening date with the UN and President Anastasiadis, noting that in the coming days the Deryneia roadblock may be opened.
Mr. Akinci said that he discussed this issue today in the weekly meeting he had with the "prime minister", Tufan Erhiurman, whom he informed about his contacts in New York and he will do the same with the other "parliamentary" parties.
In Deryneia, he added, the last asphalting works of the road are taking place, while commenting on criticisms that there are some obstacles there, he wondered if there are obstacles or excuses of the e / k side. "This must be well evaluated."
Mr. Akinci said that the issue of roadblocks in Deryneia and Apliki did not arise in New York, saying that the Turkish side remains committed to opening them, as it had expressed its political will on the issue 3 years ago.
The T / C leader said that in Apliki there was a delay due to the road on the e / k side but there were delays on the t / k side as well.
"I believe that without hiding behind excuses, both roadblocks can be opened by mutual agreement," he said. "There will be no obstacle from us, we will keep our will (to open the roadblocks) until the end and we will do our part."
As for his contacts in New York, he initially said that he expects Jane Hall Luth to submit her report to the UN Secretary General in the coming days and he will inform the UN Security Council by the 10-15th of the month. On October 30, he added, the SA will discuss the issue.
The Turkish Cypriots, he continued, want a solution, do not want the continuation of the status quo, want to take their place in a possible solution and as one of the two equal partners of Cyprus to have a role in building the future of Cyprus.
The Turkish Cypriot side, said Mr. Akindzi, now wants to move away from the perception of the negotiations in order to hold negotiations that are not focused on the result, have no timetable and do not serve any purpose. As a representative of the Turkish Cypriot side, as its elected "president", I put this in all my contacts, he stated, that is, "we will be there in a framework that will aim at a strategic agreement with a timetable and result-focused . We want the UN Secretary-General to play a more active role in this. "
He said this, he said, to Mrs. Mogherini as well as to the Foreign Ministers of Germany and the Netherlands. What is understood, he added, is that the Secretary General will soon formulate his own point of view and will communicate with them.
