The following is about the Turkish Cypriot hero;
Rauf Raif Denkta
Born in January 27, 1924 in Baf (Paphos), Currently in South Cyprus. First TRNC president and has served five terms (untill 2005).
In 1948 he served as a member of the Consultative Assembly in search of self-government for Cyprus and became a member of the Turkish Affairs Committee. In 1949 he started working as a crown prosecutor which continued until 1958. In that capacity, he prosecuted some EOKA members who were found guilty and were executed by hanging, or imprisoned.
In 1958, he attended the U.N Genral Assembly on behalf of the Turkish Cypriots, and in December of that year he advised the Turkish Government on the rights of Turkish Cypriot people during the preparation of the Zrich Agreement (signed February 19 1959). In 1960, Cyprus gained independence from Britain, thus the Republic of Cyprus was established. Denkta was elected as the President of the Turkish Communal Chamber.
In November 1963, President Makarios advanced a series of constitutional amendments designed to eliminate the provisions for the protection of the Turkish Cypriot community. This led to intercommunal fighting in December 1963, after which Turkish Cypriot participation in the central government ceased, and the partnership state collapsed. Upon these events, Denkta went to Ankara for consultation with Turkish government. His entry to the island was prohibited by the Greek Cypriot leadership in years 1964-1968. Upon his return in 1968 he took up duties as the vice President of the Republic of Cyprus and President of the Turkish Cypriot Administration. This administration was formed after another outbreak of intercommunal violence in 1967-1968.
After the failed attempt of unification of Greek Cypriots with Greece in July 15 1974, Turkey negotiated a joint military operation with the UK to intervene. Failing this, Turkey exercised her right under the 1960 Treaty of Guarantee and landed 40 000 troops on the north coast of Cyprus. Eventually these troops controlled 37% of the island and a de facto Turkish state was born. Denkta formed the National Unity Party, and in the following year and in 1976 he was elected President of the Turkish Federated State of Cyprus as the island was split into two sections.
He played a key role in the 1983 proclamation of the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus (TRNC) which is internationally recognized only by Turkey. He was elected as the President of TRNC in 1985, 1990, 1995 and 2000.
Denkta has been the chief negotiator in the United Nations sponsored peace talks since 1968.
In February 2004 Denkta embarked on a new round of UN sponsored talks with the Greek Cypriots, aimed at re-uniting Cyprus. However, he has opposed the settlement proposal (the "Annan Plan"), which was voted on by the two Cypriot communities in a reunification referendum on April 24, 2004. The plan was accepted by 65% of the Turkish community, but was rejected by the Greeks.
On May 14 2004, Denkta announced he would not be standing for a fifth term as President of the TRNC. His tenure as President came to an end following the April 17, 2005 election of Mehmet Ali Talat, who formally assumed office on April 25.
