Ending Isolation is Crucial for Turkish Cypriot Youth

Serhat Akpınar, the Secretary General of the Democratic Party, has called for an end to the isolation imposed on Turkish Cypriot youth. He emphasized the necessity for these young individuals to engage more fully with the world, stating that their potential cannot be stifled by political calculations and ongoing conflicts.

During a press conference held in Girne, Akpınar remarked, 'Our children should not be captives of political calculations and unresolved issues.' He stressed the importance of taking necessary steps for the future of the youth, advocating for their increased visibility on international platforms.

He asserted that Turkish Cypriot youth should not only be present locally but also make their mark on a global scale. Akpınar argued that barriers to their opportunities for education and employment abroad must be removed, as these obstacles negatively affect their careers and development.

He also highlighted that discussions on this issue took place at the event themed 'New World: Values that Unite Us,' held at the World Trade Center in Moscow. In his speech there, Akpınar expressed the need for Turkish Cypriot youth to integrate into the international community, advocating for steps that would allow them to benefit from international agreements.

In conclusion, ending the isolation of Turkish Cypriot youth is crucial for both individual development and societal progress. Akpınar urged all political parties to adopt a united stance on this matter.
