When the revolution comes and there is a scrable for resources, what has Cyprus got to offer?
In the grand scheme, Cyprus is doomed.
The valuable resources of today will be insignificant tomorrow!
I might remind you of the recent coal wars, the old bronze wars and iron wars, and so forth… they were all for nothing because some shortsighted fools thought that a precious resource would be valuable till the end of times!
Surely you people don’t expect to traverse the galaxies while burning crude oil…
Get Rong! you don't speak a load of shite. I have enjoyed our exchanges, but you have truly lost the plot.
I witnessed the queue of tankers outside Limassol harbour, feeding Cyprus' energy needs.
When energy is scarce Cyprus as a country will not be viable.
Even you need to pick your side, and judging from your posts, you are backing a looser.
God bless America.
Taking into consideration recent wars I can clearly say that most wars nowadays are focussed around Israel. Cyprus is the closest European country to Israel, so it's positioning is unique. Being part of the this economy, I do not see Cyprus being doomed.
I would also like to remind you that the European Union is currently one of the fastest growing union of countries in the world, drastically changing countries who enter is by ultimately providing a modern way of living, healthcare and a good modern day economy considering the circumstances. We can all live in each other's countries, what a wonderful union.
God Bless the European Union.
Don't make me laugh, when the scrabble for resources starts and climate change kicks in the EU will be the first thing to disintigrate because it relies too much on the US and Russia for its energy and the main powers in the EU are full of self-interest.
As things currently stand at least the TCs have Turkey to rely on, who exactly does the RoC have? Don't make me laugh by even suggesting Greece.
When the time comes, the best thing the RoC can do is beg the UK to recolonise it.
I don't think you know what you are talking about. European Union is one of the safest unions on the planet.
There is no British colonies any more. There is the European Union, and we are in it.
In terms of resources, there is such a thing as alternative fuels, we do not have to burn fossil fuels, and when the time is right, and the money is gathered from those resources the world will convert to them as these alternative methods already exist.
One of the largest oil sellers was the Saudi Arabians, now they understand that resources are low in their area, and have now started to market to tourists. This might give you an indication of how long the old reserves are left.
In terms of oil in the EU, Cyprus does have some form of oil reserve, which is shared by Egypt and Syria. They also found oil in Norway.
When concerning climate change, you have to understand that we have very cold regions as well. So if the end of the world was coming to the European Union we could all move up to Norway or Greenland (as this is protected by Denmark), in order to save humanity, but I am sure such a drastic move would not be necessary.
EU leaders do have their own interests at heart, the European community.
Turkish Cypriots have Cyprus to rely on, not Turkey. Turkey and the Turkish Cypriots are not one of the same, nor to they belong to the same country or government. The Turkish Cypriots belong to the RoC and not to Turkey, if this was the case I am sure Northern Cyprus would look something like Rome.
