“On Wednesday, March 8, I paid an official visit to the municipality of Maronya-Şapçı, to which I was invited.

In our meeting with the Mayor, Mr. Dinos Haritopulos, the Deputy Mayors in the Administration, Mustafa Molla, Mr. Caner Mustafa Osmanoğlu and authorized personnel, we got detailed information about the works of the municipality, about the problems that concern the local government and naturally the people of the region, and about the future infrastructure and development. We had the opportunity to consult on issues.

During the bilateral meeting, I exchanged ideas on solutions and stated that we always implement a constructive and supportive policy alongside local governments regarding cooperation.

I conveyed to the mayor that the Maronya-Şapçı Municipality has the advantage of economic development and growth as a result of applicable projects due to its geographical location, regional and social structure, and that we can implement efforts in this direction in the new period with central and local political cooperation.

Mr. Haritopulos emphasized that it is an important political responsibility to produce final and permanent solutions for the benefit of the people of the region by determining that we have common thoughts on the creation of employment areas, reducing the unemployment rate, agricultural production and animal husbandry, and that with the progress in this matter, we can save our people from the economic migration event compared to the current picture. I expressed my satisfaction that we agree on the issue.

At the meeting, where we emphasized the importance of the region where the minority and majority people live harmoniously and peacefully for the future, I would like to thank the mayor, vice-mayors and municipal staff who welcomed me and my team with their outstanding hospitality and friendly behavior.”
