STEPS FOR STABILITY – PRESIDENT Ersin Tatar has welcomed an announcement that Russia is to soon start providing consular services to its thousands of citizens who reside in the TRNC. The move is a “step that can contribute to the establishment of prosperity and stability in our region, as well as meeting humanitarian and administrative needs” Mr Tatar said. The news was first revealed by the Russian news agency Tass on Wednesday, which quoted an unnamed source at the Russian Embassy in South Nicosia as saying: “We will begin providing consular services in the northern part of the city of Nicosia in the near future. We will be working on a regular basis.”
This was later confirmed by the Russian Ambassador in Cyprus, Murat Zyazikov, who told Tass: “This decision, which is long overdue, has no political underpinning. It is prompted exclusively by humanitarian concerns and care for our Russian compatriots who reside in the northern part of Cyprus.”
