Since I'm being lectured by a kid, let me inform this kid that his post about Azerbaijan's low GDP was also misinformed...

Azerbaijan's economy started from a low base due to Soviet neglect. As a result of it's oil economy, GDP has grown by over 10 per cent for the past two years and is predicted to grow by 10-15 per cent in 2005. With the opening of the Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan oil pipeline and the prospective doubling of oil production, Azerbaijan has the potential to become the next Kuwait... so long as the finances are properly managed.

Well in short they have upgraded from muslim cypriots to the Turkish cypriot state and they are also talking in the same lines as azerbeycan.

For your info the OIC is 51 countries, now do the maths.

Tassos has really goty to start moving before it is too late.


Sorry Bro, the last time I heard the OIC mentioned, Turkey claimed that they were making noises about recognising the TRNC. It was at that point that the EU stepped in and warned that future EU-OIC conferences could be jeopardised by such a move... the OIC quickly backed off.

Moosey this is from todays 'hellenic resources web site which is very biased in favour or the greeks but neverless the info is almost the same as else where.

Serdar Denktas promotes the policies of partition and enmity towards the Greek Cypriots in the Islamic Conference
Ankara Anatolia news agency (29.06.05) reported the following from Sanaa: The `Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus´ (`TRNC´) received intense support during the 32nd Organization of Islamic Conference (OIC) Foreign Ministers' Conference in Yemeni capital Sanaa, sources told the A.A on Wednesday.

Representatives of Sudan, Azerbaijan, Pakistan, Guinea and Libya gave the messages of support to the `TRNC´.

Sudan and Azerbaijan said that economic and commercial relations with the `TRNC´ should be increased.

Diplomatic sources noted that Sudan explained its belief that all kinds of political and commercial relations with the `TRNC´ should be improved.

No country explained any views in favor of the Greek Cypriot side for the first time in the history of the OIC meetings. On the contrary, they pledged to support the Turkish Cypriots in their rightful cause.

Meanwhile, `TRNC Foreign Minister´ Serdar Denktas told reporters that they were pleased with those messages of support.

Recalling that he would deliver a speech at the conference later in the day, Denktas said that he would underline the importance of lifting of isolation of Turkish Cypriots and the `TRNC's´ full membership to the OIC.

Moreover, illegal BRT television broadcast that speaking in Sanaa, the capital of Yemen, at the Islamic Conference Organisations Foreign Ministers meeting, Pakistani and Azeri foreign ministers backed the Turkish Foreign Minister Abdullah Guls earlier call on Islamic nations to provide support to the Turkish Cypriot people to help remove its international isolation.

On the second day of the 32nd meeting of the Islamic Conference organisation, Azerbaijans Foreign Minister Elmar Memmedyarov said the Cyprus problem failed to be resolved after the Greek Cypriot side rejected the UN plan last year.

Critisizing the international community for not keeping its promises to the Turkish Cypriot people and ignoring the problem, Mr. Memmedyarov said that the European Union had failed to put the free trade and financial assistance regulations in force both, promised by and prepared with the orders of the EU Council after the Turkish side approved the Annan Plan with a great majority.

Mr Memmedyarov added that a solution to the Cyprus problem should be found under the aegis of the United Nations.

Also speaking at the plenary session, the Pakistani Foreign Minister Mr Abdul Settar pledged continued support for the economic integration of the Turkish Cypriot people with the rest of the world.

He also said that a solution to the Cyprus problem should be based on bi-zonality, bi-communality and the political equality of the two sides on the island.

Meanwhile a draft resolution on Cyprus is today being discussed at the conference.

The draft, under the heading The situation in Cyprus envisages immediate steps to be taken towards the removal of the international isolation of the Turkish Cypriot people.

It was approved at committee level, untouched, despite Greek Cypriot attempts to introduce changes in its wording.

The draft resolution refers to an earlier decision adopted by the OIC foreign ministers in Istanbul last year which approved a change in the name of Northern Cyprus from the Muslim Community of Cyprus into the Turkish Cypriot State.

Following todays endorsement at committee level, the draft resolution is expected to be put to the foreign ministers approval at tomorrows plenary, concludes Bayrak.

Are you saying that there are about 51 countries just about ready to recognise the TRNC?
Which maths should we make?
How many more tanks we need to buy?
Wait a minute! 51 x 50 = 2,550. :(

i dont see the reason why we should worry. they can recognize it if they want to. does this mean we have to accept a solution that will destabilize the country and give more rights to the minority so as it can control the majority?well,no thanks!!!

yeah, it's funny how Turkey chooses to be Islamic when it's talking to organisations like the OIC then secular when talking to America and Britian.

Besides, these IC countries should remember how much support RoC has given to the Palestinian cause...all the while when Turkey was up Israel and America's ass.

Turkey is just doing what any other country would probably do if it was in its position.


The long and short is Tassos must get off his arse if he wants solution but if he does not want a united cyprus he will just blow some hot air for the GC population to guarantee his position and do nothing at all.
