GR, What's your take on what I've said on opening the latest crossing (in six months).?

I think the TCs are happy because it’ll help people get much needed jobs on the other side (in that specific region), and the GCs are happy because it gives them a false sense of a unified Cyprus or something like that.

Sorry to oversimplify things but it’s a bit late… :)

Kikapu wrote:Can someone tell me why opening any crossings at this point is so important.? What I mean is, if there's going to be a settlement soon, there won't be any crossings anymore. It will be a open country, so what's the big deal in spending time and energy in opening any crossings at this point which has been closed for the last 35 years. The only time opening any crossing now that would be important, if there isn't a settlement soon, and if that's the case, why are all these people giving each other "High Fives" for, for God sake. If the talks are going great, then within few months, the whole country will be open, unless that is not the case, and that there will be an official crossings between the north state and the south state after a settlement has been reached. Can someone please enlighten me on this one.!


It would be a worrying scenario if, in some peoples' eyes, these crossing points are intended to be permanent affairs, albeit without the dodgy "visa" pollocks.

Mind you, the EU wouldn't be too happy with any permanent check-points, gates, sentry-posts or barriers of any kind that would restrict in even the slightest degree the Free Movement of EU citizens.

:) For the TCs it’s almost always commercial… besides jobs, they’re also hoping that some of the RoC’s 2.5m odd summer tourists will be slipping in and out of the “TRNC” spending money.

For the GC’s… it’s almost always psychological as money is never an issue for them! :lol:
