How can we solve it? (keep it civilized)

Why recommend something when you do not think it will help?
If it helps there must be something it must achieve!
where does it say ties with GCs? just read into it!

ps. like the straws pick, seems like all are grasping for them to justify their point.

"Such contacts would nurture a sentiment of trust between the communities..."

Ties and contact between the two sides will help.

Yes, the "peace process" and the "nurturing of a sentiment of trust" between the communities.

Ties and contact with who else will help the "peace process"? The Japanese? The South Africans?

Ties and contact with who else will "nurture a sentiment of trust"? The Venezuelans? The Sri Lankans?

Further, greater economic and social parity between the sides will make the eventual reunification not only easier, but also more likely. In the context of an internationally sanctioned peace process, efforts in the opposite direction can only be counterproductive.

Understand the implication, don't just read it as you'd like to hear it> greater economic and social parity will make reunification not only easier, but more likely ..... efforts in opposite direction can only be counter productive.

Stop placing the pressure as, if goal is reunification then this is more likely to be achieved.


If I buy into what you are saying at a very minimum then does that mean Apoel is likely to play Cetinkaya soon? What's the chances Christofias is going to get around to that?

Recognise.

Understand the reality, greater economic and social parity between the two sides can be achieved if there are more economic and social ties and contacts between the two communities.

...Which is why, for example, Stelios launched the "Stelios Award for Business Cooperation" in Cyprus, giving away up to €1 million to business people from the north and south of the island who co-operate on new ventures.

This is what the UN is encouraging, not direct trade with the "TRNC". Now stop playing silly buggers.
