A deal is a deal. If you don't know that by now, you soon will. While you try to renage on deals, the TCs will rumble you every time. If you try to shaft the SBAs, who says you won't try to shaft the TCs later on?

Oh really?

Part of the "deal" that set up the SBAs was that GB would make over annual sums of money.

That money has not been forthcoming since 1964!

GB is in arrears to the tune of tens, and perhaps hundreds, of millions of Euros. No Money, Deal Off.

GB has been breaking the "deal" for 45 years during which time it has been Illegally Squatting on the "bases"

You're the ones who have been found out mate, so on yer bike! Back to Tnucland wih your tail between your legs.

Oh dear!

Brits owe nothing to the so-called RoC which was established in 1964 but so-called RoC owes a lot to TCs.

Don't worry Insan. It will all come out in the wash as the old saying goes.
In this agreement they will pay through the nose for what they put the TCs through and I will be collecting my share personally fro Bill C.

BTW Happy Bayram to all those who celebrate Ramazan.

Only third world countries have National Councils.

What is really amazing is they spend couple of hours talking to resolve the problem and then spend 4 days talking to the NC. WTF are they discussing, it certainly can't be the talks, can it?.

Yes, well we do have ~300,000 or so third world Anatolian Turkish illegal "immigrants" squatting in our citizens' homes ...

[Get Real!]

Given that ALL TR troops, TR settlers and Brits are to leave TRNC, how many TCs would that leave in TRNC? A few tens of thousands who it would be very easy to ignore/marginalize/over-rule. Very reassuring proposal for the TCs - I'm sure they'll go along with it (not).

If anything it goes to show the travesty of this “partnership” and federation nonsense!

"Only third world countries have National Councils."

How would you go about forming consensus on something as important as the Talat Christofias talks then?

If you refer to the practices of western countries in times of emergency, you will see that they too try to form the widest possible consensus.

What third world countries definitely do have is national security councils like the one ruling Turkey. It must be the only nation on earth where the military appoint, promote and retire themselves.

That is exactly right Nikitas.

In time of war, most countries will form what is called a Security Council or War Cabinet....and as Cyprus is currently at war, achieving a national consensus between all political forces through the National Council, is very responsible.

It is also quite good to see that all political parties in Cyprus are united in their consensus concerning the Cyprus Problem. They have shown political maturity.

National consensus? Is it not the majority that will decide eventually? We cannot decide collectively on the type of desalination plants we need and you suggest that there can be national consensus on the Cyprob? Has anybody seen this consensus over the last 33 years the national council has been meeting?

In fact not even production of ideas can be generated in the national so called council. It only takes a Lilliputian party like the ecologists to leak a distorted form of ideas proposed and the proposer is sent to the execution squad, by our patriotic pres. The national council with all its pompous members must be got rid off and the elected government start doing what it was elected for.

Cyprus at war! Shall we laugh?

Which is? Sign a surrender agreement with the winner of the war in order we continue think that our Mercedes will continue to serve us. But my friend even Mercedes became old and streets dusty.A solution agreement just to celebrate same for three days (just what we did with Zurich) can not be our target. Governments (as persons) are just for few years. The Greek population of the Island is there for centuries and our duty is to keep this population for the next centuries. 4-50 years in history is just a moment- we can not through away our rights for just "a moment" of happiness and satisfaction of some financial interests in the area (including these of some G/cs).

Our internal affais succeeded the not possible- Even Greeks of mainland Greece can not understand our (G/cs) positions ,how we expect foreign ministers and governments to do so?
