Accepting the UN plan may damage Turkish Cypriot interest

“However, accepting the plan could damage the interests of the Turkish Cypriots,” warned Denktas. “We will determine our destiny by the end of this month [with the April 24 referendums on the plan and EU accession scheduled for May 1]. I want everybody to consider how he or she will determine not only their own destiny, but also the TRNC’s.” Denktas further stated that the plan should be discussed in detail and that more time was needed for this.
