(MENAFN) The Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus (TRNC) condemned the U.S. on Wednesday for counting Greek Cyprus in its International Military Education and Training Program.
The Presidency of the TRNC said in a report "It is not understandable how to benefit regional stability by increasing bilateral military activities and programs between the U.S. and Greek Cyprus rather than a comprehensive dialogue and cooperation involving all sides".
The report noted that biased initiatives will have a negative impact on efforts between both sides on the island and on regional stability.
The statement said, "The way for the US to contribute to regional peace and stability rather than military support and cooperation is through balancing both sides in Cyprus and promoting constructive dialogue and cooperation between regional actors".
