We can not have a second Zurich, said Interior Minister Socrates Hasikos, in an interview with the newspaper "Politis", adding that there must be a third force to oversee the implementation of the solution.

The Minister of Interior took "very important steps" and referred to the fact that for the first time Turkey entered the discussion and for the first time we have maps.

"The point is, we can not have a second Zurich. In the sense that as the Republic of Cyprus and as the Greek Cypriots, we should sign an agreement with the Turks again and start, either we or the Turkish Cypriots, undermining it and undermining it. And here are the concerns on both sides. That is why we say that there must be a third force, which will supervise the implementation of the solution ", said the Minister of Interior in his interview, according to the electronic edition of the newspaper" Politis ".

Mr. Hasikos also said that "For the first time, Turkey entered the discussion. For the first time we have maps. Very important steps have been taken ", adding that" From the moment we reach an agreement of leaders, the question arises whether the solution passes or not to the world. "Let's wait and see what agreement they will reach and then we will have time to explain so that the ruling people can make a decision."

In case of no solution, he said, "the next day will not be the same as the next day in 2004. Unfortunately, it is rumored everywhere (especially from the Turkish side) that this is the last chance. I want to believe that it will not be. In any case, the refugee will not tolerate us. "

"The refugee who received λί 1.000 in 1970 or so is not satisfied. The sense of justice is not restored. The state, any government, whether Nikos Anastasiadis is re-elected or not, must think about what it will do. The refugee is not satisfied with what we gave him. He wants much more. But to get the most out of it, some people have to pay. With taxes. The people of Limassol, Skaliotis, Pafitis and the people of Nicosia, to a large extent, gained added value. "In 1980 there was an issue of living space, so the values ​​of property began to go up," added the Minister of Interior.

Referring to the need to adopt a policy of equal distribution of the burden of occupation to restore justice, Mr. Hasikos said that the redistribution of land is underway and that the procedures for the recovery of t / c houses from those who refuse to pay have already begun. the highest rents imposed on them since May 2016.

All those who own Turkish Cypriot property today must understand that it is not theirs, said the Minister, adding that give it. Is it fair for them to keep our property, not to give it to us and for the Turkish Cypriot to come to the free areas and give him his property? It is unfair. But we are the rule of law. The proponents of non-solution, who consider themselves to be the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are wrong.

He also states that the applications to the "real estate committee" were minimized, due to the incentives given at a rate of 20% for those refugees who have a house to build from above and the prospects of a solution to the Cyprus problem.

In addition, the Minister of Interior states that people are naturalized after in-depth research and notes that the money we received in the context of naturalization had the element of development, because they wanted a home.

Expressing his confidence that the local government reform will finally be approved in Parliament, but with a horizon of implementation after five years, Mr. Hasikos believes that the biggest bet he won during his ministry was development.

"We do not let the applicant wander vaguely. The one stop shop operated at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs through Urban Planning ", he underlines.
