If I were a TC living and working in the north I would be dead worried about this prospect and the way the situation is evolving regarding the issue of settlers. Vp and the likes seem to be hiding behind their little fingers and pretend that nothing really happens.
For those that raised the issue of the free areas being flooded with Turkish immigrants once Turkey enters the EU, I would say get real. Bulgaria and Romania and a number of other eastern european countries entered the Eu and nothing really happened. The main difference is that the RoC is not handing out stolen properies to attract foreigners coming here and will never do. The RoC economy is an open market economy so when their is supply of jobs that cannot be satisfied by the local market then foreigners come to work here. The capacity of the labour market is not unlimited so the system is self regulated, thus no need to worry about RoC being flooded with Turkish immigrants.
Basic knowledge of economics...
Its been 3 months since Romania and BUlgaria joined have you been to London recently the number of Polish worker and settlers is unbelievable, plus Turkey could use swamping tactics to flood the south once in the EU so mind your backs, what you warns us of you will face in 15 years time.
Have you thought of the two ends of the stick which are both shitty, its just that one is less shitty right now and looks to remain that way as the other end of the stick is adamant on staying covered in the most germous and infectious and dangerous shit ever.
As the Iraq weight lifter said who struck the first blow at Saddams bust, better the devil you know, he regrets ever taking the side of the USA, think about how that applies to us.
