PRESS RELEASE
For all these years of taking courage and maintaining sincere goodwill,
the Cypriot political youth organizations have carried out bi-communal
activities for mutual understanding and the common goal of reunification
of Cyprus, and signed various common declarations, including the very
last one signed on March 28th 2004. (Please refer to the
second page)
In confirmity to our previous common declarations, we; the Turkish
Cypriot political youth organizations as ÇABP Youth Branch, CTP Youth
Branch, BDH Youth Committee, TKP Youth Branch, YBH Youth, and KSP Youth
Section would like to reconfirm and stand strong behind our previous
demands for a United Cyprus based on a Federal Solution. For the sake of
accomplishing this common objective, we call upon the other seven
political youth organizations (all of the other organizations that have
signed the common declaration on March 28th, 2004) to join us
and justify their position by saying “YES” on April 24th,
2004 and support the final version of the Annan Plan which;
* is prepared based on the UN resolutions
* is supported by the Council of Europe and the EU institutions
* is also internationally accepted.
* Will allow the possibility of the reunification and will give the
common struggle chance to the two communities for their future
Finally we would like to conclude by saying that; we believe the
considerable amount of the members of the political parties which have
decided to vote against the Annan Plan are in favor of saying “YES”
in the referendum and we would also like to remind them that the voting
which will take place on April 24th is strictly not party
politics but will directly affect our future so we call upon the Cypriot
youth to say “YES” for a EU member re-united Cyprus in the referendum.
In this respect we underline that we see all of the leaderships of
the political parties which are promoting for “no” as a part of the
status-quo and that it will be impossible for us to continue our
relations with their youth organizations and taking part in any future
bi-communal youth events until the referendum which will take place on
April 24th, 2004.
