DENKTAS: “THE UN’S PLAN IS COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE”

“[UN Cyprus Envoy Alvaro] de Soto has never gone to a Turkish village in the south [in Greek-controlled Cyprus] and never wanted to see how Greek Cypriots destroyed Turkish houses to prevent the Turkish Cypriots from returning,” said Denktas. “He still supports and continues to defend the UN plan, a plan rejected by both sides for a referendum, which shows that the plan needs changing. As long as de Soto continues to do that, he loses both credibility and reliability.” Denktas added that even if the TRNC were to accept the UN plan, the end result would be strife and conflict, not peace.
