  • [01] FOREIGN MINISTRY HIJACK ILLEGAL AIRPORT

    The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Cyprus condemned the hijacking which took place on August 18th, 2007 on an aircraft of the Turkish private airline Atlas - Jet, which departed from an illegal airport in the occupied by Turkish troops area of Cyprus and pointed out that Tymbou airport does not conform to the international safety regulations.

    In an official announcement issued on Saturday, the Foreign Ministry points out that the flight of the Turkish private airline Atlas - Jet heading to Istanbul, departed from an illegal airport located in the area which is occupied by the Turkish troops and which is not under the control of the legal Authorities of the Republic of Cyprus.

    The Foreign Ministry also stress that the fact that the operation of the illegal Tymbou airport does not conform to the international safety regulations or to the Civil Aviation Regulations, since it operates in an illegal secessionist entity, has repeatedly been pointed out by the Republic of Cyprus to all international organizations as well as to the international community.

    Furthermore, the Ministry says that all legal entrance and exit points of the Republic of Cyprus operate under complete safety and in accordance with the international air navigation regulations on the basis of International Conventions which have been signed by the Republic of Cyprus.
