Cyprus Talks: Akıncı warns against misinforming the public

Turkish Cypriot leader, Mustafa Akıncı has warned against attempts being made at misinforming the public and distorting the real facts about the on going Cyprus negotiations process.

Akinci made the remarks when he was speaking in an event on Wednesday where he accused the Greek Cypriot side of deliberately twisting information in a bid to protect its own interests.

According to Akinci, he said he will continue to inform the Turkish Cypriot people about the truth, the facts and reality, just as he has done in the past

He pointed out that the best example of this was in regards to the meeting the United Nations had tried to arrange between the two sides last week.

“The reports that the Greek Cypriot side had immediately accepted such an offer and that the Turkish Cypriot side had rejected the proposal did not reflect the truth” he said.

According to him, he had received a personal invitation from the UN Secretary General only on Wednesday night, which he accepted immediately, because it was something that he had been expecting.
