She has a lot more things to do before the cyprus problem becomes an issue for her, and even that depends on who is in government. If a pro military government comes to power they will not even want to join eu. Do you know how out of touch you are with reality?
Really YFred, really??? I am out of touch with reality, YFred? Really? You know better than Davutoglu, Gul and Erdogan; who keep saying all the time that “the EU is a strategic goal for Turkey?” Really, YFred, really? You know better than the Turkish government itself, what are Turkey’s interests, needs and desires? Do some reading, YFred, instead of spending all of your time farting “kahvehane” type of nonsense in the forums!

Really YFred, really??? And what will the EU do, to stop us from exercising our veto rights against Turkey's EU accession? Will it cut us the salaries, the water and the electricity, like Turkey will do to you whenever it wishes to push you into the direction it wants? What will the EU do, YFred? Will it bomb us with atomic or nuclear weapons, so that we allow Turkey to become a member of the EU? What, YFred? C'mon, tell us?
As Turkey will not be considered for entry for 10 years or more, what difference does it make who says what now. Do you not see that Turkey has plenty of time where as the Cyprus problem has no time at all.
Who from the current crop of politicians will be there when Turkey joins the eu in 10 years time.
You just don't get it my friend.
Longer Turkey drags her feet to comply with the EU's demands for her to become a EU member and also solve the Cyprus problem, the more risk Turkey is taking by other nations becoming a EU members before her that may also not want Turkey in the club, such a Serbia perhaps, so NO, Turkey does not have time on her side if she is really serious about becoming a member. At the present rate, Armenia will become a EU member before Turkey does which will really cook Turkey's goose. Is the northern part of Cyprus really that important for Turkey rather than a EU membership. No matter when it may come for Turkey to be a EU member, just remember that her road to EU membership runs right trough the RoC, and if you want to convince yourself otherwise, then you are not facing realities of life but rather a chicken running around aimlessly with it's head cut off, or like an deluded idiot in thinking that what ever Turkey wants on it's own terms is what Turkey will get when ever she wants it.!
