JOINT EFFORTS TO LIFT THE ISOLATION ON NORTH CYPRUS

How can we solve it? (keep it civilized)

I rather think that the world has changed a bit since the early 1980s, so quoting decades old UN resolutions is a bit pointless, the UN never having been a court of law. It was always a political organisation.

All recent UN resolutions urge Cypriots to reach a mutually acceptable agreement. And time is running out.

UN resolutions are ETERNALLY BINDING unless revoked or complied with so your feeble attempt to sanitize Turkey’s illegalities simply exposes your ignorance on the matter.

The UN is the MAIN BODY under which ALL OTHER BODIES of International Law fall…

Living in the REAL world implies that you are in touch with FACTS but it doesn't seem like you are.... :lol:

But anyway you've got every right to be ignorant... I would only mind if you were to continue promoting global anarchy.

It seems to me that conditions in Cyprus are now much more settled and very much less anarchic than they were in the 1963-74 period. FACT or not?

A resolution adopted at the Congress – which was also attened by President Talat - calls on Turkish speaking states to join their forces to end the international isolation of North Cyprus.

A resolution adopted at the Congress calls on Turkish-speaking states to join their diplomatic efforts to end the international isolation of North Cyprus.

The resolution also calls for more support to Turkey in its efforts towards increasing economic, cultural and political ties with North Cyprus and towards protecting the rights of the Turkish Cypriot people at international organizations.

Turkish Cypriot people were aware of the support it would receive from the Turkic states and were therefore not worried about its future, President Talat said, ‘the support that will be given to the Turkish Cypriot people is a well deserved support.’.


AA.Isolation of Tcs (the remain one) is the result of the violation of international law and impossed by UN and Int Community.

BB.For Gcs:"efforts towards increasing economic, cultural and political ties with North Cyprus " In a United Cyprus Gcs will also participate in this culture and political ties?

I think that this rather supports my view that relying on decades old UN resolutions is getting GCs nowhere. The only people who are now paying it much attention are the GCs. The rest of the world is straining to end the isolation of the TCs, blocked by past statements and the RoC.

BB.For Gcs:"efforts towards increasing economic, cultural and political ties with North Cyprus " In a United Cyprus Gcs will also participate in this culture and political ties?

We hope you will. One of the disappointments of the last few years has been (according to UN survey) the minimal social contacts between TCs and GCs.

Before everyone starts telling me about their TC/GC friends, consider how many contacts are between people of my age (late 50s) and how much the young people interact.

AA.If the UN resulosions were bacame of the Gcs interest only then North could fly directly to all the countries and officially trade with them.

As you can see the int community, even your famous Turkish speaking nations are not proceeding in this direction-still.

My point about Gcs participation in culture cooperation was not related to Tcs but to the other nations participating in the meeting.

Sorry. Misunderstood. I can only speak for myself, but I can think of no reason why Greek speakers could not co-exist with Turkish speakers. Currently there are probably friendlier links between Athens and Ankara than there are between North and South Nicosia. Another indication of how the world has changed since the early 80s.
