Ankara would not open its ports to Greek Cypriot traffic ...

Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoğlu has repeated that Ankara would not open its ports to Greek Cypriot traffic before the lifting of the isolation on the Turkish Cypriots.
Mr Davutoğlu was speaking at a joint press conference after discussions with his British counterpart David Miliband in Ankara.
Mr Davutoğlu said “promises are mutual. The promise to remove the isolation of the TRNC is as much binding to our side as Turkey’s promise to open its ports is binding to the European Council”.

Stressing that Ankara’s stance on the issue was very clear, the Minister said Turkey has always looked at the Cyprus issue from a comprehensive point of view, and not on the narrow topic of ports issue.

“We have two options in front of us, and we choose the first. And that is a comprehensive solution”, he said, adding that Turkey was in support of a settlement to bring peace not only to Cyprus but also to the Eastern Mediterranean.

Isolation has always been a MYTH.

The Illegal Regime has always been free to export/import whatever they want through the ports of the Occupying Power, Turkey. In recent years, the EU's Green Line Regulations allow for trade with the rest of the world through the Free Ports of the Republic.

Turkey signed the Customs Protocol without any preconditions, so it should honour the agreement. Turkey is not to be trusted to keep to Protocols, Treaties, Agreements etc.

The EU has been deeply involved in the Green Line Regulations to make trade with the Occupied North easier.

The EU has signed contracts to deliver hundreds of millions of euros in development aid to our friends in the north.

.... so you can shove it mate! ... Up Your Bum!

... and you can shove the nearest Jerkish villoui up there en'all.

Mr Halalin, why didn't you finish the report? It's not fair you teasing us this way. I want to know what Mr Davutoğluğlu's second option is!
