The area where the Deryneia roadblock will open will be visited tomorrow by the Turkish Cypriot leader Mustafa Akinci, who last Saturday visited the corresponding one in Apliki.
According to reports from the occupied territories, Mr. Akinci had expressed on Saturday, in Apliki, the desire for the opening of both roadblocks to be accelerated and completed, appealing to the Greek Cypriot side to speed up the work in Apliki.
The opening of the two roadblocks was covered by the Turkish Cypriot press this week, while Turkish Cypriot activists, on social media, use a photo frame with the slogan "open Deryneia".
"Yeni Duzen" yesterday had a front-page report on the roadblock of Aplikio, with the "mayor" of Lefkas Aziz Kaya accusing the Greek Cypriot side of delaying the opening of the roadblock. It also hosts statements from other local actors, calling on the "government" to put pressure on the Greek Cypriot side to open the Apliki roadblock.
Last Tuesday, the same newspaper hosted statements by non-governmental organizations of the Famagusta T / C, demanding the opening of the Deryneia roadblock without being held hostage to the opening of the Apliki roadblock. These organizations are planning an event at the site where the Deryneia roadblock will open on March 31.
It is recalled that speaking in the "parliament" during the discussion of the budget of his "ministry", "Foreign Minister" Kudret Ozersay stated that the two roadblocks should be opened at the same time.
