Cypriot Communists warn against “illusions” following Erhürman’s election in occupied northern Cyprus

The Communist Initiative of Cyprus (Κομμουνιστική Πρωτοβουλία Κύπρου /Kıbrıs Komünist İnisiyatifi) has issued a statement responding to the election of Tufan Erhürman as the new leader in the occupied north, warning that his victory should not be seen as a step toward resolving the Cyprus problem or ending the island’s division.

While many analysts have described Erhürman’s election as an opportunity to restart peace talks, the Communist Initiative describes such expectations as “diplomatic” rather than substantive.
