Tatar’s Remarks Spark Public Outcry
President Ersin Tatar’s statement during an event organized by the Foreign Press Association—claiming that “the Greek Cypriots’ intention is to make us sit on their lap”—has stirred widespread controversy across the public and political spectrum.
The phrase, used by the head of state, drew significant criticism from political circles and various segments of society. Many citizens who watched the video expressed disbelief at the language used, describing it as colloquial and inappropriate for the presidential office.
Social media users and members of the press emphasized that the President, as the highest representative of the state, is expected to use more measured and institutional language. They argued that the remarks undermined the dignity of the presidential office.
Amid growing criticism, calls have been made for the Presidency to adopt a more cautious and respectful tone in future public statements.
