Yeah sure. I tell you exactly what the Turkish strategy is. They'll promise to recognise RoC but first the apparent isolation will have to be lifted. Once that happens they'll then say they will recognise RoC only once the EU recognises the TRNC puppet-state. Just like what happened with Armenia.

Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tyyip Erdogan said yesterday he will only comply with terms to open the border with Armenia if that country leaves territory in Azerbaijan.

As if the EU doesn't know Turkey by now.

And regarding your EU aspirations, they're banking on something similar to what happened at World Economic Forum this year:

Yep, they know you will end up simply walking out of membership talks because "it is Turkey who should be dictating the agenda" and not the other way around. Therefore it will be your fault.

Not even the Turkish Cypriots can see any of Turkey’s “positive steps” yet they expect us to see them!

I've been following this thread frequently and I'm still waiting too.

Come on guys, mathematically, there must be at least two.

1. TCs accepted unification(Removed Denktash)
2. They were made to give back 10%
3. Without Turkeys Guaranty there would be no negotiations.
4. Turkey will bankroll some of the costs
................
do you wish to have more?
They will even guaranty the GCs if you ask nicely.

Well there's all those flags. And the enormous statues and bronze reliefs of Ataturk and such.

That's two steps.
