Welcoming the UN Chief’s latest report to the UN Security Council, the President said `such a move will not only contribute to the efforts aimed at uniting the Turkish Cypriot people with the rest of the world but also to the efforts aimed at providing a solution to the Cyprus problem`.
The President’s words came during the opening ceremony of a branch of an international company in Lefkosa this morning.
Addressing the opening ceremony, President Talat said the opening of branches of international companies in the Republic will help the Turkish Cypriot People unite with the rest of the world.
The President said the lifting of the international isolation of the Turkish Cypriot people will not only help the Turkish Cypriot People unite with the rest of the world but will also contribute to the efforts aimed at bringing about a solution to the Cyprus problem.
`International companies are uniting the Turkish Cypriot people with the rest of the world and contributing to the solution of the Cyprus problem by opening branches in our country` he said, expressing the hope that such investments will continue in the future.
Now who was it that said we have nothing to offer the world agian :evil:
I think it was BigOz that said,
"that the "TRNC" was not able to offer anything more to the world than they already do now".
Your above quotation is not written correctly....on purpose, I'm sure......so is he wrong Zan
Does Talat really talk that way. I mean, does he really repeat himself over and over again with the same topic. Must have gone to same school as George Bush.!!
I did not read anything about Uniting with the people of Cyprus, the South. Talked about the TC's uniting with the rest of the world, but not the South. Didn't VP tell us that lifting the isolation will level the playing field, that will help the island unite. Talat just said " it will also contribute to the efforts aimed at bringing about a solution to the Cyprus problem"......... like a Partition Perhaps.
Did anyone read, that the Secretary General is not a KING and therefore just cannot demand the isolation to be lifted. It needs to go in front of the Security Council. Personally, I do not see it passing for dozen reasons from the Russians to Chinese to the British. How can Britain vote for this, when they have Bases in the RoC. Do they have a "Death Wish" or what.?? As I said yesterday, there may be some back room deal cuttings with the involvement of the RoC to give Turkey some "Face Saving" room for limited lifting of the isolation, so that Turkey can advance to the next round with the EU talks and at the same time open her air space and Ports to the RoC. The RoC will go along with this, providing that Turkey will eventually pull out of Cyprus and without Partitioning the island. Call me cynical if you like, and I can see all the Partitionist lining up to do just that, but what ever deal is cut and it is outside any resolutions passed in the security Council, this will be the beginning of many moves for Turkey handing over the North back to the RoC in order to get into the EU, and the TC's will not have any say in it at all.
