The leader of the governing National Unity Party - Prime Minister Dervis Eroglu has said that those who favour living under the roof of the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus in security should support him in the upcoming elections. Mr Eroglu said that he was seeking the support of his people, not the outside forces.



The Premier was campaigning in Lefke yesterday.



Speaking in the town centre, the UBP candidate said that he will be fighting to win back the concessions President Talat has given to the Greek Cypriot Side at the negotiating table.

Mr Eroglu stressed that he would be resuming the talks in order to get the Greek Cypriot Leader Christofias as well as the international community to accept the sovereignty of the Turks of Cyprus.



Criticising various circles who claim that the talks will collapse in the event of his election, he said he will not leave the table.



“I shall sit opposite Christofias at the negotiating table and defend our rights” he added.



Pointing out that there are two peoples and two states in Cyprus, Mr Eroglu said that an agreement could only be reached between two equals and that the way to a solution passed through the recognition of the TRNC people’s sovereignty
