We Travel By Camel, But Do Not Give Up The State

Rauf Denktas, the President of the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus TRNC responded to Gul, saying, “They told us that they would open ports if we gave up sovereignty and the state. We travel by camel; however do not give up the state. You also should not give up!”

The Greek Cypriot side pulled down flags and mourned on the anniversary.
