ATHENS - Turkish State Minister Kursad Tuzmen has said, ''everyone should respect for results of the referendums to be held in Cyprus on April 24.''
Replying to questions of journalists, Tuzmen who is currently paying an official visit to Greece, said on Friday, ''everyone should respect for results of the referendums to be held in Cyprus tomorrow. Turkey and Greece have already prepared themselves.''
''Both Turkish and Greek officials expressed their views and intentions. Now, we will wait for results of the referendums,'' he said.
Noting that everyone was aware of Turkey's sincerity and constructive attitudes about efforts to find a fair and lasting solution to the Cyprus issue, Tuzmen said that both Europe and the world appreciated Turkey's recent efforts to this end.
