Declaration made upon ratification:
"Turkey declares that its ratification of the "Council of Europe Convention on the Counterfeiting of Medical Products and Similar Crimes Involving Threats to Public Health" neither amounts to any form of recognition of the Greek Cypriot Administration's pretention to represent the defunct "Republic of Cyprus" as party to that Convention, nor should it imply any obligation on the part of Turkey to enter into any dealing with the so-called Republic of Cyprus within the framework of the said Convention."
