Cyprus intervenes to avert overseas trade & tourist offices of illegal regime

The Cyprus government is monitoring the promotion of establishing trade and tourist offices of the Turkish Cypriot puppet regime abroad and is intervening in a strong diplomatic manner to avert such development, Government Spokesman Christodoulos Pashiardes said on Monday.
Replying to questions, Pashiardes ssaid that these actions by the Turkish side are made in the framework of the organized effort to politically upgrade an illegal secessionist entity and do not concern the economic strengthening of the Turkish Cypriots.
“This effort by the Turkish side in combination with other actions towards the same direction merely adds to the justified doubting of its intentions to reach a mutually acceptable settlement of the Cyprus question, through substantive negotiations,” he concluded.
