"We welcome the realization of the Presidential elections in the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus (TRNC), the second round of which took place today (October 18), in a manner reflecting the exemplary democracy of the TRNC and the political maturity of the Turkish Cypriot people," The Ministry said.

Congratulating Tatar and wishing him success in the office he was elected, the Ministry said that the results reflected the free and sovereign will of the Turkish Cypriot people.

"The strength of the Turkish Cypriot people stems from its ability to maintain, within the framework of democratic principles, its unity and social solidarity," the Ministry added.

The Ministry underlined once again that Ankara would continue to work in close coordination with all institutions of the TRNC, to support the sovereign equality of the Turkish Cypriots, co-owners of the Island, as well as their legitimate rights and interests in the Eastern Mediterranean under all circumstances, and fulfill our legal and historical responsibilities with utmost sensitivity and determination.

Presidential elections were held in Northern Cyprus on October 11 alongside a constitutional referendum, with a run-off held on Sunday.

Despite the parties of candidates receiving lower votes in the first round predominantly supporting Mustafa Akıncı, including the Republican Turkish Party (CTP), Tatar won a narrow victory in the second-round and thus became the 5th President of Northern Cyprus.

His election was welcomed by most political parties in Turkey. (ILKHA)
