Regarding the unrealistic remarks of Annita Demetriou, the Speaker of the House of Representatives of the Greek Cypriot Administration of Southern Cyprus, who came to the podium before him, claiming that "Turks are invaders", Kurtulmuş said, "As for the Cyprus issue. There is an occupation in Cyprus, it is true. The invader in Cyprus is not Turkey, but the occupation of the Greek side, which abolished the legal Republic of Cyprus established in 1960 and occupied the Republic. "Of course, Turkey, as a guarantor country, could not and did not remain a spectator as pro-Enosis groups eliminated the Republic of Cyprus." he said.
AZERBAIJAN'S KARABAKH VICTORY
Regarding Azerbaijan's Karabakh Victory, "We understand, appreciate and fully support Azerbaijan's sensitivity to save its own lands in the face of Armenia's 33-year occupation of Karabakh." Kurtulmuş said, adding that as a result of all international efforts being helpless against the 33-year occupation, Azerbaijan was left with no other choice and Karabakh was liberated with a war that lasted 44 days.
“Karabakh will be Azerbaijani land and in the hands of the Azerbaijani people until the end of time.” Kurtulmuş underlined that "this is not an occupation, but a people saving their own land."
Pointing out that the peace that the six-party alliance, including Azerbaijan, Turkey, Russia, Iran, Armenia and Georgia, is trying to establish in the Caucasus is being tried to be damaged and eliminated by some, Kurtulmuş said, “The peace to be established between Azerbaijan and Armenia in Karabakh will depend primarily on these two countries.” It is in favor of all the people of the region.
"The opening of the Zangezur Corridor is never on the initiative of one country, but for the benefit of all the people of the region, and we hope it will be so." said.
