'We have defended our own rights, and the people of Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus (TRNC) to the end and will continue to do so' - Turkey's Defence Minister Hulusi Akar
Turkey will not let a fait accompli occur in the Eastern Mediterranean, Aegean, and Cyprus, Turkey's defence chief said on Sunday.
He also stressed that Turkey will not sit and watch without doing anything, while others drill for oil and gas. “Fatih, Yavuz, and Barbaros drilling vessels are in the region now. Oruc Reis is also sailing to the region. Our determination at this point is extremely certain," Oktay told reporters following Eid prayers in Istanbul.
Turkey has consistently contested the Greek Cypriot administration’s unilateral drilling in the eastern Mediterranean, asserting that the TRNC also has rights to the resources in the area.
