PRESIDENT MEHMET ALI TALAT NOT OPTOMISTIC ABOUT DIRECT TRADE REGULATION DURING PROTUGALS TERM PRESIDENCY.
President of the Republic Mehmet Ali Talat has said that he is not too optimistic about the future of the Direct Trade Regulation.

He said that although Portugal has taken over the EU term Presidency from Germany as from today, the Direct Trade Regulation will once again be prevented by the Greek Cypriot side.

‘The only way to overcome this situation is to use the majority vote system as proposed by the European Commission otherwise the regulation will never come to life’, he added.
Speaking during a visit paid to him today by European Journalists, President Talat evaluated the Cyprus situation.

Noting that the Turkish Cypriot people wanted the island to be united once again, the President of the Republic said ‘political equality is of vital importance for the Turkish Cypriot people. I insisted that political equality be put into the Annan Plan; otherwise the Annan plan would have never been accepted by the Turkish Cypriot people.’Noting that the Greek Cypriot side was against the economic development of Northern Cyprus, President Talat said the Greek Cypriot side doesn’t allow any Turkish Cypriot product that has a North Cyprus sticker on it, this is just unacceptable’.

Explaining that not enough EU countries knew about the Cyprus situation President Talat said from now on it was his aim to explain to new EU member states the Cyprus situation.

‘Last time, when the 259 million Euro aid that was going to be made to the Turkish Cypriot people was being voted on in the European Council, South Cyprus and Greece voted against this, and other EU countries abstained, but I believe those countries didn’t know enough about the Cyprus problem or what the Turkish Cypriot people had lived through,’ he added.

Upon being reminded of the Greek Cypriot sides’ rejection of the Annan Plan, President Talat said ‘the Greek Cypriot side had said they rejected the Annan Plan because the Turkish Army was still going to stay on the island, but this is a lie. If they had accepted the Annan Plan only 650 Turkish soldiers were going to stay on the island and 950 Greek soldiers.

The Greek Cypriot side is continuing to lie to Europe and the world.’

Noting that half the soldiers of the South Cyprus army were made up of Greek soldiers, President Talat asked how come nobody is talking about this situation. Underling the tremendous mistake the European Union had made by accepting the unilateral membership of South Cyprus, President Mehmet Ali Talat concluded by saying, the European Union and the Greek Cypriot side had signed the accession treaty before the referendum of the Annan Plan’.

I said before that nobody is interested to comment on propaganda articles. Why do you keep on posting propaganda articles full of inaccuracies and lies? Are we going to spend our time correcting propaganda articles here????

Or you just post them to get us tired reading them?

Or are you just use this forum to relay propaganda??

This is a discussion forum, if there is something you want to discuss out of a newspaper clipping the RULES OF THE FORUM say you should provide the link NOT copy paste the full article. And just copy the part you want to discuss, and write something about it.

I am very sorry but I will refer this to the Admin. It is more than ovious you are using the forum to just copy paste propaganda articles.

Pyrpolizer, there is room for discussion even with this article.

For example I believe that prior to the referendum it was stated that no community will be vilified if they voted against the Anan plan and no community will be rewarded for voting for the plan. The Turkish speaking cypriot leadership has constantly used the fact that Greek speaking Cypriots voted against the Plan at every opportunity.

"President Talat" forgets that in the international arena there is no north Cyprus so why should any product be labeled as cypriot is made in an illegal state, that is not recognised, However I would agree if it was labeled as made in Cyprus.

"President Talat" appears to forget the reason why there is an economic embargo.

"President Talat" has never made attempts or reference to a United Cyprus in all his reports to Europe he is always fighting the same argument end the isolation it is unfair well so is the fucking exploitation of refugee property and so is the denial of the freedom od Cypriots to access their country and property and the right to choose where they live.

In Cyprus in 2007 a Turkish Cypriot has more freedoms than a Greek Speaking Cypriot. What does Mr Talat say to that?

Mr Talat has introduced a new issue to talk about. That is Greek soldiers posted in Cyprus. Well Mr hypocrite Talat, its okay for you to have turks but the other side not to have Greeks? I say get rid of the turks we get rid of the Greek UN can supply more troops if necessary and let us start talking about Unifiction. But who listens to that?
There you go Pyr lets us have a discussion

Fuck EU and fuck trade embargoes! Who really cares?

I do not see anyone starving in TRNC, can anyone else?

Note: Talat is wasting time touring Europe! He should try travelling North-East and Eastwards from Turkey, if he is really serious about developing trade realtions with anyone...

[humanist]

your onto it bigOz


halil .... you are welcome good civil discussions may get us somewhere, what I said is simply my perspective and though there is a level of anger and I acknowledge that, I feel we can move forward if we start talking about unification for BBF.

This IS NOT a discussion humanist. This is correction of some of the major flaws of a propagandistic article. If someone wanted to discuss an issue he could perhaps have quoted the part that says the GC rejected the Anan plan (just because of one reason) the matter of the Turkish army staying been also careful to say ALL the facts that they would reduce to less than 1000 men in 19!!! years, and with having the same powers that gave them the excuse to invade on the first place) That would perhaps spark a discussion.

Halil uses this forum almost exclussively to copy paste propaganda articles (from bayrak?) and he was told many times to stop doing it.

[humanist]

Pyrpolizer, I hear you very clearly we have a choice I guess to either ignore it by not saying anything or correcting the articles. Not that anyone listens I feel. I guess people will believe what they want to believe, but allowing thses articles to go unquestioned is also feeding into the propaganda.

Personally I cannot comprehend how someone could let go of their lands and villages and have no attachment to them as TC's have done and accept to take someone elses property instead. At least my heart will not be able to do it.


OOOOps what a slip of the tongue above unifiction ...........that says smething laughs at self.

I sincerely hope that you posted that as a joke BigOz...(it's not funny at all)

[humanist]

Why would you even want to joke about something as serious as that? A friend of mine had once told me something that I have now come to cherish. He said " a lot of things are often said in gest, but are often meant".

One thing I do agree is that talat is wasting time touring Europe, may be sitting down to discuss July 8th agreement will be more beneficial.

But again with the Cyprus problem solved, he wont be getting tours will he? See personal gain overides community good. His community btw. I have come to accept that Turkish speaking Community sees Greek speaking Community as evil and therefore does not give a toss, but he could at least try and make it better for his community by honouring an agreement instead of blaming the Greek speaking side. Of course the Greek speaking side will do everything in its power to protect the rights of that community. refusing to honour an agreement is right down iresponsible and stupid.

33 Years just that should be enough to say enough is enough lets try something new different we may actually get somwhere. Anyway do these people think they are going to live for ever. The Talats and papadopoulos's of this world will be well and truly gone in another 33 years if that is what they are aiming at. Hell I was 6 year old kid in 74 and am now 39. That is half a lifetime. And I wont even be around to see a unified Cyprus at this rate.

And we calll these politicians stalling and stalling for what. Their big fat pockets to get bigger. Really disappointing at both of them. Papadopoulos needs todo more to show the Turkish speaking Cyp's they will be protected in the south and he needs to make it attractive for them to move to the southto their villages and homes.

He needs to act NOW.
