We call on the UN Security Council to get rid of the deceptive propaganda of the Greek-Northern Cyprus duo and to support the steps taken by Northern Cyprus in accordance with the law on the Marash issue.

Axar.az reports that the statement came from the Turkish Foreign Ministry.

"We completely reject the baseless claims and inconsistent statements of various countries against the statement made by the President of Northern Cyprus Ersin Tatar on the opening of the second stage of Marash on July 20. We fully support the response of Northern Cyprus in this regard," he said.
