SO the trnc can welcome the israeli flottila to kyrenia ,and we can give them a warm trnc welcome , and they can leave without having the roc confiscate thier boats ,,,nice

We will well come the Israeli flottila and we will greet them with flowers. we will not use the bullets we will greet them with Turkish Cypriots folk dances. we will offer them our good hospitality and will explain them how we are ready for peace in Cyprus. They will ashame from themself !

So what if ..... they refuse to pay landing and harbour fees and insist on conducting customs and passport formalities with the Government of the Republic?

Better take the usual welcoming Turkish Iron Bars.

We can then hang on to the boat as guarantee till they pay. We are experts on guarantees and all that don't you know?

These ports will only be open to trading if the trade is done under the Republic of Cyprus... This was the case before 1992... But trading with the ''TRNC'' signature is illegall...

However all this changed when in 1992, the TRNC government made it illegall to trade with the ''RoC'' signature and instead forced in the ''TRNC'' sinature... So this also suggests that the leadership in the North is putting embargoes on themselfs rather than them being embargoed!!!!

The only real port in the north is Famagusta and it has limitations imposed by its historical UNESCO certified city walls. There is no room for the port to grow inland where container traffic can be stored and handled.

Lt us face it, Cyprus has only ONE port worthy of the title and that is Limassol. It is the only container capable port on the island. Famagusta might be a passenger port and limited commercial port but still limited in scope and capability.

If and when a settlement is reached you will all see that Limasson will be the preferred port for most of the trade to and from Cyprus.
