YKP Yürütme Kurulu Kıbrıs’ın sorunundaki son gelişmeleri ve Eroğlu’nun son dönemdeki açıklamalarını değerlendirdi. Açıklama şöyle:
Eroğlu geçen haftalarda ortak metne imza attı ve orda görüşme sürecine yapıcı katkı yapacağı ve suçlama oyununa girmeyeceği taahhüdünde bulundu ama daha mürekkebi kurumadan Türkiye’de canlı yayında bir televizyon programında tüm gücü ile suçlama oyununa devam etti. Canlı yayında Kıbrıslı Rumlara verip veriştiren Eroğlu, Annan Planına evet dendiğini hatırlattıktan sonra “Perez De Cuellar belgesine de benim başbakanlık dönemimde onay vermiştik” dedi.
Dün ise Eroğlu, Türkiye’nin resmi haber ajansı AA’ya verdiği açıklamada Türkiye’den taşınan nüfus ile ilgili çeşitli iddialarda bulunduktan sonra “Rumların bu konudaki yorumları yanlış” dedi. Eroğlu ayrıca, “Türk askeri buradan çıkamaz” da demiştir… Toprak ve garantilerle ilgili de bildik görüşlerini tekrarlamıştır.
Bu durumda akla ilk gelen 1980’lerde Perez De Cuellar belgesini Eroğlu okumadan onaylamıştır. Okusaydı bu iddiaları yapamazdı. Ayrıca Eroğlu bir yandan Annan Planında evet denmesine sahip çıkarmakta ama diğer yandan yaptığı açıklamalarla kendi hayır kampanyasındaki argümanlarını tekrarlamaktadır.
Tüm bunlar ciddi bir süreçte söylenecek sözler değildir.
Kıbrıs’ta bulunacak bir çözümün adanın tümden askersizleştirmesini sağlayacağı birçok antlaşma taslağından yer almıştır… Perez De Cuellar belgesinin 8.1 maddesinde ise tüm Kıbrıslı olmayan askerlerin ve yabancı unsurların çekileceğinden bahsedilmektedir…
(8.1 A timetable for the withdrawal of non-Cypriot military troops and elements)
Eroğlu’nun bir yandan övünerek bu “antlaşmayı kendisinin onayladığını söylerken diğer yandan “Türk askeri buradan çıkamaz” demesi basit bir bilgisizlik konusu olarak algılanamaz…
Perez De Cuellar belgesinin 7.1 maddesinde Kıbrıslı Türk federe devlet bölgesinin de yüzde 29 + olacağı yazılmaktaydı ki Eroğlu bunu da onaylamıştı ancak şimdi tek çakıl vermem yönlü açıklamalar yapmaktadır.
(These territorial adjustments will result in the Turkish Cypriot province or federated state comprising in the order of 29 + per cent of the territory of the Federal Republic)
Maraş konusunda ise madde daha dikkat çekicidir. 10.1 maddesinde Kıbrıslı Türklerin 5 Ağustos 1981 tarihinde verdiği haritadaki Maraş ve 6 bölge ile ilgili sınır düzenlemesi ve bu bölgelerin yerleşime açılması için BM denetime verilmesi yer almaktadır.
(10.1 The Varosha area and the six additional areas delineated in the Turkish Cypriot map of 5 August 1981 will be placed under United Nations interim administration as part of the UNFICYP buffer zone for resettlement)
Perez De Cuellar belgesinde bugün masada sorun olarak gözüken birçok konuya cevaplar verilmektedir. Özellikle egemenlik konusunda tanımlar nettir. Eroğlu bunu onaylandığını söylüyorsa, bu belgelerdeki ifadelere geri dönmesi gerekir…
Eroğlu ne 1980’lerde Perez De Cuellar belgesini onaylarken samimi idi, ne de şimdi ortak belgeyi imzalarken samimidir. Bu nedenle tıpkı Annan Planı sürecinde olduğu gibi Kıbrıs’ta yaşayan herkesin geleceklerine sahip çıkmak için harekete geçmesi gerekir.
Bu nedenle bu süreçte Güven Artırıcı Önlemler önemlidir.
2007 yılında ilk kez kuzeyde, Maraş’ın askeri telleri önünde Yeni Kıbrıs Partisi (YKP), Alman-Kıbrıs Forumu, Sınırı Aşan Eller Kadın Örgütü, Kıbrıs Türk Öğretmenler Sendikası (KTÖS), Kıbrıs Sanat Derneği, Haklar ve Özgürlükler Derneği, Kıbrıs Doğa Dostları, Kıbrıs AB Derneği (KAB), Kıbrıs Indymedia’nın imzası ile hazırlanan ortak deklarasyon çerçevesinde basın toplantısı düzenlemişti.
YKP, öncesinde de, 1990’ların başında da Ghali Fikirler Demeti tartışılırken Maraş’ın Güven Artırıcı bir önlem olarak yasal sahiplerine iade edilerek yeniden yerleşime açılmasını desteklemiş, aktif mücadele etmiştir.
YKP hala da Maraş’ın Güven Artırıcı Önlemler çerçevesinde yasal sahiplerine iade edilerek yerleşime açılmasının görüşme sürecine önemli katkı sağlayacağına inanmaktadır.
YKP, 2007 yılındaki basın açıklamasındaki görüşlerin hala geçerli olduğuna da inanmaktadır. Bu açıklamada “Maraş’ı da kapsayacak Mağusa, Kıbrıslı Türklerle Kıbrıslı Rumlar arasında çeşitli düzeylerde işbirliği, iletişim ve etkileşimi sağlayacak çığır açıcı yeni bir model yaratma fırsatı sunmaktadır. Bu bölgede böylesi bir modelin yaratılması, geleceğin yeniden birleştirilecek Kıbrıs’ına bir örnek teşkil edecektir” demiştik, bu görüşlerimizde ne kadar haklı olduğumuzu, bugünkü tartışmalara bakarak bir kez anlamış durumdayız…
Bu nedenle Yeni Kıbrıs Partisi, bu süreç de tıpkı 2000’lerde olduğu gibi yalnızca liderlerin inisiyatifine bırakılmayacak kadar önemlidir.
Bu nedenle umut, biz istersek ve sokakta olursak vardır diyoruz ve görüşme sürecinin yeniden ortadan kaldırılmaması için tüm kesimleri mücadeleye davet ediyoruz…
Perez de Cuellar

Federal legislation may be executed either by authorities of the federal government or by way of co-ordination between the competent authorities of the federal government and of the two provinces or federated states.
3.1 The legislature of the Federal Republic will be composed of two chambers: a lower chamber with a 70-30 Greek Cypriot and Turkish Cypriot representation, and an upper chamber with a 50-50 representation. Federal legislation will be enacted with regard to the matters of federal competence as referred to in paragraph 2.1 above. The adoption of legslation on major matters, as for instance on ten of the twelve functions referred to in paragraph 2.1 above, will require separate majorities in both chambers. The adoption of legislation on other matters will require majorities of the membership in each chamber.
3.2 Appropriate constitutional safeguards and deadlock resolving machinery including special provisions to facilitate action on matters necessary for the continued functioning of the federal government (e.g., on budgetary questions) will be incorporated in the federal constitution. In case of deadlock in the legislature, the proposed legislation may be submitted in the first instance to a conciliation committee of the legislature composed of three Greek Cypriots and two Turkish Cypriots, whose decision will be taken on the basis of majority vote including at least one Turkish Cypriot. If the deadlock persists, the president and vice-president of the Federal Republic will, upon request, appoint on an ad hoc basis one person each, selected for their knowledge of the subject involved, who, with the assistance of experts as needed including from outside the Federal Republic of Cyprus, will advise the legislature on ways the deadlock could be resolved. The matter may also be submitted to a referendum among the population of the community which opposed the draft legislation. Legislation adopted by the legislature may be taken to the Constitutional Court for ruling as to whether it violates the constitution or is discriminatory against either community.
4.1 The Federal Republic will have a presidential system of government. The president and the vice-president will symbolize the unity of the country and the equal political status of the two communities.

The president and the vice president will, separately or conjointly, have the right to veto any law or decision of the legislature and the Council of Ministers in areas to be agreed upon, it being understood that the scope will exceed that covered by the 1960 constitution. The president and the vice president will have the right, separately or conjointly, to return any law or decision of the legislature or any decision of the Council of Ministers for reconsideration.
