The representatives of the trade unions that were demonstrating yesterday in Northern Cyprus were not able to deliver their letter for Turkey’s Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan through the Turkish embassy. The embassy was guarded by hundreds of policemen in riot gear. Representatives of the embassy refused to accept the letter and told them that the only way they can reach the ambassador is by mail. Frustrated from the attitude of the Turkish leadership, the protesters sent the message that if Turkey wants a confrontation they will have it. In the meantime the Turkish government insists on having the protesters arrested and sent to court, it also threatened the Turkish Cypriot leadership that unless they take measures against them it would mean that they are protecting them.
