They don't have to do anything YFred... if they did nothing ... it would still mean Turkish was not an Official Language of the EU.
Now, all we have to do is reverse all traces of colonially acquired Turkish-sympathies, and restore Greek as the one and only Official language of Cyprus (with all dialects enriching common daily life in the background, of course).
So please go ahead and change the constitution as you wish, you have no no TCs blocking it. I dare you.
I didn't think it was up to the TCs to "block it" ... it was the Brits' bad idea in the first place.
It's effectively officially obsolete ... not having been taken up by the more sensible EU, on "our" behalf.
Has it been removed from the constitution though.
I think you will find that there is a small clause somewhere where it will be taken up when TCs join EU.
Are the TCs thinking of rejoining us in the future?
... You will find many things will have changed, including the non-transfer of an Official "Turkish" language into Cyprus-EU .... Do you think the EU will allow an undemocratic constitution (circa 1960) to prevail?
