Erhurman Insists on Green Line Communication Mechanism

Tufan Erhurman, referring to a package of ten points submitted during negotiations, stated that it includes the creation of a mechanism for direct communication between the National Guard and the occupying forces. The purpose of the mechanism is to establish immediate contact and avoid delays in the event of issues on the ground. Mr. Erhurman also mentioned recent incidents of tension caused by Greek Cypriot farmers' activities in the dead zone, while expressing his dissatisfaction with the subsequent statements from the Greek Cypriot side. He emphasized the need for faithful implementation of existing agreements by the United Nations and effective operation of communication channels, as well as the responsibility of leaders to strengthen preventive dialogue and avoid statements that worsen the climate.
