VP, this objection was rejected because of a mere technicality, due to the fact that the legal committee did not have the time to examine it, (like it did and approved all the other objections raised by the GC side,) and also because of one stupid GC parliamentarian, Andros Kyprianou, who failed to get things on truck. However, do not get overexcited, because the remark "through their own ports," that managed to stay in the adopted resolution, has been taken care in a previous paragraph (9) in which it makes it clear that any direct trade measures must comply with resolutions 541 and 550 of the UNSC. Furthermore, the very fact that PACE recognises the RoC as the only legal, sovereign and legitimate entity in Cyprus, hence the fact that it (RoC) is a full member of the CoE, renters the above remark as literally meaningless, and a purely "cosmetic" trick in order to "sweeten the pill."
Double stands yet again from teh EU, the voted for the sentence to remain as is, we are not suprised if they have wormed their way out of it as they have made it very clear that they on the GCs side. Thats why we will never accept their security in place of Turkey as they could do the same when the stakes are much higher, like our lives.
