ERDOGAN SAYS TURKISH AND GREEK TROOPS IN CYPRUS CAN BE WITHDRAWN ONCE PEACE IS ACHIEVED

Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan has stressed that all troops based in Cyprus will simultaneously be withdrawn from the island once peace is achieved.
The Turkish Premier said Turkey is maintaining its stance on the issue of troops in Cyprus.

`Troops issue is the final issue to be dealt with. Once everyone completes his duty and everything is put in order, that’s when we will take a step on the issue` he added.

Answering the questions of the Greek Cypriot Ambassador to Stockholm during the meeting -who asked if Turkey would play a positive role in the maintenance of political will towards a solution and if it was ready for the withdrawal of troops within this context-, Mr Erdogan said `We want Cyprus to be an island where there is bi-zonality and the enjoyment of equal political rights. We are ready to do all we can towards realizing this. Once Cyprus becomes the island of peace, then Turkish and Greek troops can be withdrawn simultaneously`.

Reminding that the Turkish Cypriot side is the first side to demolish the wall at the Lokmaci Barricade and the Gate is now mutually opened following the agreement reached between TC leader Mehmet Ali Talat and the Greek Cypriot Leader Dimitris Christofias, Erdogan emphasized that North Cyprus and Turkey are on the side of peace, not on the side of fighting.

Turkish Prime Minister added that Turkey had earlier put its signature on an agreement which envisaged the time and conditions for the withdrawal of troops from the island during Cyprus talks held in Switzerland and said Turkey is staying behind its signature.

Yes, what would their next lame conspiracy be i wonder, once they finally get it into their thick skulls that Turkey does not actually have any "expansionist policies" as some idiots here like to keep babbling on about.

What will they actually whinge about once it is as clear as the Cypriot sky that Turkey did actually come for a PEACE OPERATION!

One just cant help but wonder......

Shah,

It is also fair to say, that Cyprus entering the EU in 2004 has also changed what ever plans Turkey may have had for Northern Cyprus back in 1974. The island was closed off for the first 30 years don't forget. With veto power over Turkey's eventual EU entry hopes may have in fact brought about new attitude in bringing peace to the island. I personally believe, that 2004 was a history altering new course for Cyprus with the EU entry. On the other hand, did Erdogan check with his Generals before making such statements in offering to remove the Turkish Troops. After all, Erdogan may not even have a job in 3 months time.!!!!!

Still, if unacceptable demands are made by Erdogan for the GC's to accept, then talking about troop withdrawal is just academic.

To use your own words....

Still, if unacceptable demands are made by GCs for the TC's to accept, then talking about troop withdrawal is just academic.

At least we all agree, that Turkey is calling the shots and not the TC's.!!

If the expectation by the TC's from the GC's to accept the 2004 AP all over again when it was rejected by 75% , then there won't be any agreement for peace. If on the other hand, the TC's will accept just and fair settlement under a True Federation and True Democracy, then the troops can go home the next day after signing the agreement.

So VP, stop pissing around and tell us. Do you want just and fair peace with True Federation and True Democracy, or are you going to insist on a plan just like 2004 AP with Racist, Undemocratic, and violations of Human Rights on the majority of Cypriots. If it's the latter, then the next peace talks will be when Turkey starts begging Cyprus to let her into the EU, or allow her to get
"Privileged EU Membership" in about 20 years from now. In the meantime, the "Midnight Express" flights will continue as they are now, since embargoes and recognition will not come. At the same time, expect the economy in the North to start declining with the collapse of the Turkish Lira if it takes too long for Turkey to get into the EU, unless of course, the country will once again become under "Martial Law", in which case, the international investors will pull out their money and the Istanbul Stock Exchange also collapses.

Turkish Peace Operation = ethnic cleansing, raping, murdering old people and destroying places of worship. Even Denktash admitted Turkey's expanionist policies lol.

Shah, why dont you F**K OFF and Google some Ataturk pictures to have a wank.

Let's see now.

1974 Turkish intervention:

Got rid of the terrorist who overthrew another Terrorist/Murdering/Priest.

Got rid of the Junta in Greece.

Stopped the Greeks/GCs killing Greeks/GCs.

Stopped the Greeks/GCs killing/genociding Turkish Cypriots.

Stopped the murdering terrorist scum EOKA for ENOSIS.

No more killings/murdering/genociding innocent Turkish Cypriots ever since.

Yes, it was a perfect year, thank you Turkey.

Go get your EOKA medal and stick it up your arse, side ways and be thankful that Turkey saved your worthless hide.

Big Al,Eric Dayi is a subhuman racist who hates anything Greek Cypriot & hates anything British!

Aidan.

Aidan,

The fact that you are a fellow New Zealander notwithstanding, a fair case can be made in a rebuttal that you are a racist in that you hate everything Turkish. I have a number of friends from Turkey and North Cyprus, and they come across (at least to me) to me as normal people.

I'm glad to hear you have normal TC's and Turks as friends Expatkiwi, and not just the Racist and Fascist ones such as Denktash and Eric Dayi that you support all the time, as well as other Racists policies in Cyprus.
