the turkish foreign minister turan güneş had said to the prime minister bülent ecevit, "when i say 'ayşe should go on vacation' (turkish: ""ayşe tatile çıksın""), it will mean that our armed forces are ready to go into action. even if the telephone line is tapped, that would rouse no suspicion." an hour and a half after the conference broke up, turan güneş called ecevit and said the code phrase. on 14 august turkey launched its "second peace operation", which eventually resulted in the turkish occupation of 37% of cyprus. britain's then foreign secretary (later prime minister) james callaghan later disclosed that u.s. secretary of state henry kissinger "vetoed" at least one british military action to pre-empt the turkish landing. turkish occupation reached as far south as the louroujina salient.
