  • ANKARA: Islamic Nations Refer To Turkish Cypriots As "State"

    ISLAMIC NATIONS REFER TO TURKISH CYPRIOTS AS "STATE"

    Turkey

    The final declaration of the Cairo meeting of the Organization of
    Islamic Conference (OIC) declated "the Turkish Cypriot State," after
    intensive lobbying by the Turkish delegation.

    "OIC member states are invited to prove their effective solidarity with
    the Turkish Cypriot State and continue close relations to help it to
    overcome the isolations," said the declaration of the 5th Conference
    of the Parliamentary Union of the Organization of Islamic Conference
    Member States.

    The declaration also condemned the Armenian occupation on parts
    of Azerbaijan, and the pressure and discrimination against Turkish
    minorities living in Western Thrace, Greece.

    Parliament Speaker Koksal Toptan represented Turkey at the
    conference. Koksal is set to return to Turkey later Friday after his
    visit to Alexandria.
