New President of North Cyprus is Dr.Dervish Eroglu

Dervis Eroglu, who supports Turkish Cypriot independence, claimed victory in the north’s ’presidential’ election on Sunday, APA reports. Eroglu won more than 50 percent of the vote to avoid a run-off and beat incumbent Mehmet Ali Talat, according to preliminiary results. Eroglu, who wants more autonomy for each community in any peace settlement, rules out concessions key to Greek Cypriots in reunification talks.
Any stalemate on Cyprus will further complicate Turkey’s ambitions to join the EU. Turkish Foreign Minister has already congratulated Eroglu with his victory. In the letter of congratulation Eroglu is valued as a person with rich administrative practice: “We welcome president’s intention to continue the dialog process on solution to the conflict under the patronage of UN”.
