ViewPoint put this simply but most affectively by saying "the bully got bullied and thats why nobody is helping you".

If I have to be honest I'm inclined to go along with ViewPoints analysis.

Your comments please, hopefully without too much insults and obscenities.

At a formal ceremony that was held yesterday at the Whitehouse, Mr Pavlos Anastasiades presented his credentials to the President of the United States of America Mr Barak Obama, as the new Ambassador of the Republic of Cyprus to the USA.

In his written address, the Ambassador referred to the excellent bilateral relations between Cyprus and the United States of America on a wide spectrum of sectors and the importance of strengthening and further enlarging cooperation between the two countries on the bilateral level, as well as on regional and international issues. In this framework the Ambassador underlined the commitment of Cyprus to the preservation and promotion of mutual democratic principles and values, stressing that Cyprus will continue to constitute a trustworthy partner in this effort.

Regarding the Cyprus problem Mr Anastasiades reiterated the President of the Republic’s commitment to achieving a solution on the basis of the United Nations Security Council resolutions and the High Level Agreements, which provide for a solution of bizonal, bicommunal federation, with a single sovereignty, a single citizenship and a single international personality. He also stressed that the process of the direct negotiations must remain under Cypriot ownership and without the imposition of timeframes or arbitration and underlined that the President of the Republic demonstrated again, with the set of proposals he recently submitted, his good will and his resoluteness in speeding up the process of the solution of the Cyprus problem, in the framework of the direct negotiations. He also pointed out the very important role of Turkey and called on the United States of America to exercise their influence on it, so that a solution can be achieved, the soonest possible, which is mutually beneficial and serves the best interests of all.

In his written reply, President Obama referred to the historic, as he described them, bonds between the USA and Cyprus, and expressed the wish to work for the enlargement and enhancement of the two countries’ bilateral relations and for the promotion of the common values that govern them. He stated at the same time that the arrival of the new Ambassador coincides with the “special milestone” of the 50 year anniversary of the Republic of Cyprus and 50 years since the establishment of diplomatic relations between Cyprus and the USA. Also referring to the multi-faceted cooperation between the USA and Cyprus, the US President described the Republic of Cyprus as “valued partner” of the USA on a plethora of issues.

With regard to the Cyprus issue, President Obama expressed the United States’ support for the Cyprus ownership, as he called them, negotiations for the reunification of Cyprus, noting that the island’s division has lasted for too long. In this framework, the US President praised the President of the Republic for his courageous and resolute efforts for the solution of the Cyprus problem and expressed the wish for the achievement of a just and viable solution, which will reunite the island on the basis of a bizonal bicommunal federation.

EP resolution satisfactory


NICOSIA - The Cyprus government has expressed its satisfaction with the approval of a resolution adopted by the European Parliament on EU trade and economic relations with Turkey.

Deputy spokesman Christos Christofides said that this is a positive resolution which provides advantages in our efforts to solve the Cyprus problem.

He noted that the government worked to achieve the approval of this resolution. Furthermore he praised the Cypriot MEPs, Greek MEPs, political groups and individual MEPs, “who contributed to the effort of our side.”

He said that paragraph 11 of the resolution was particular positive, as it noted that for the fifth consecutive year Turkey has neither fully implemented that Additional Protocol to the Association Agreement nor removed all the obstacles to the free movement of goods.

He also noted that in the same paragraph, Turkey is called in an explicit manner, to implement fully and without delay all its obligations deriving from this Protocol in an non-discriminatory way and it is recalled that failure to do so may further seriously affect the negotiating process.

Christofides also said paragraph 24 was important as it noted Turkey’s role in the Mediterranean region as a founding partner of the Barcelona Process and called on Turkey to fully respect all the states partners of the process.

The Deputy Spokesman also said that this resolution was also achieved due to the stance of the Cypriot government on the problem of Cyprus, which sends the message that “we are creative, fully prepared for a right solution to the Cyprus problem, something which contributes to the assessments and the positions of the European and the international community”.

Turkey which aspires to become an EU member state does not recognize the Republic of Cyprus, an EU member state since 2004.

Why is Turkey going to lose its status of membership candidate if the Cyprus issue is not resolved?

Lets get one thing straight here boy. Palestine is in the news EVERY DAY. When was the last time Cyprus was mentioned on mainstream TV? Hold on, I remember now, the ANNAN PLAN REFERENDUM.

Totally meaningless Lit. Empty words spoken by politicians everyday around the world. All talk no action. Are you aware of the number of years that this has now been going for?
