Talat urges Turkey, Greece, Britain to join Cyprus security talks
Talat told reporters, no joint decision was taken yet.

... Mehmet Ali Talat, said special meetings with participation of guarantor countries, Turkey, Greece and Endland should be held in the later stages of discussion of "Security and Guarantees" chapter.
Talat told reporters following his meeting with Greek Cypriot Leader Demetris Christofias, that this was their position, and no joint decision was taken yet.
He said they closed the "Territory" chapter during today's meeting, adding that there were differences of approach between parties over this issue. He said they exchanged views on the issue and closed the chapter to be taken up again at a future date. http://www.worldbulletin.net/news_detail.php?id=44307
The Unofficial Muhktar Talat knows he won't be able to get what his masters, Turkey, want out of Pres X on this issue, which is Turkish Pollockship, and so he puts on the mindset of the 1950's to bring in the UnHoly Trinity again to secure Jurkish Guarantee to Feck Up CY again, through the back-door.
I think this is Talat's knee-jerk reaction to the news that the EU is sufficient as a Guarantor .....
Watch Turkey and the UK try to keep their oar in.
This is where Greece and Cyprus are going to have to outwit them; and demand EU representation too, should Talat/Turkey get his/her way ....
Talat has asked that the 3 "Guarantors" be included in the Security Chapter discussions. This would suit Turkey's interests because it would offer the 1960 Treaty of Guarantee some legitimacy in the current peace negotiations.
Greece, as our sincerest ally, knows this only too well, and will no doubt
decline any invitation to participate within the peace negotiations as a Guarantor Power. Greece would even be prepared to abolish this agreement and unilaterally declare that Cyprus already has guarantees as defined by EU Principles and the EU Charter, and at the same time call on the EU to act as arbitrator.
There is absolutely no way Greece will involve itself in the peace process as a Guarantor Power, because it is fully aware of how this will impact on our desires to be fully independent as an EU member state.
