Minister Çavuşoğlu also pointed out that the Parliament’s support for the process of two-state settlement based on sovereign equality was of critical importance.
Later that day, Minister Çavuşoğlu was received by Prime Minister Ersan Saner of TRNC.
Minister Çavuşoğlu noted that we did not make any distinction between TRNC and Turkey, that we had sent 40 thousand vaccines, that we would send more, and that we would continue to stand by TRNC in the fight against COVID-19.
Finally on the same day, Minister Çavuşoğlu held a meeting with Foreign Minister Tahsin Ertuğruloğlu of TRNC, and emphasized that Turkey and the TRNC would continue to act together for a two-state settlement based on sovereign equality.
