WHen there is a solution then we'll all sing Turkish amanedes together...until then its not an official language.

My point really.

All I am saying is that based on a certain premise, Turkish will become an official EU language.

This premise is that the current round of negotiations results in a bi-communal, bi-zonal federation deemed to be a continuation of the 1960 republic in which Turkish is an official language, and which acceeded to the EU as such in 2004, and if, following such a solution, the acquis communitaire is applied to the whole island, including the area populated mainly by Turkish speakers.

Under any other circumstances, the bets are off.

Let's not make a mountain out of a molehill.

PS Has the article of the RoC Constitution providing for the official languages of the Republic been suspended?

I don't think we should be forced to keep Turkish on as an Official Language just so that Tim can have a job ....

This will be one side effect, of course.

Halil, get your head straight. 14 chapters are not closed because
1) You are not applying for membership You Cannot!
2) There is no one to close them (no tc recognised parliament to pass the laws.)
3) All that is going on is an informal preparation for the north in case WE decide for a solution.


BTW This reminds me of the FIFA case when you said you can have friendlies but now FIFA says as long as your teams belong to the CFA.
