It is time for Turkey to immediately halve the troops stationed in Cyprus, in view and as good will gesture toward Unification as BBF. It is time that the EU tied a solution to the Cyprus Problem with Turkey's accession to the Union.
I think we cannot change the past but we can move forward. The sooner Turkey frees Cyprus the sooner she'll make it to the EU.
However, Germany and France would like to use Cyprus because they have the need to remain a little open minded despite they not want to be lol
I can't believe the Cyprus Problem is as complex not to be solved after the Union of Germany lol
Not to stray too far off-topic, but if the Brits do pull out of the bases they had better do a good job of securing the line between the north and Dhekilia before they leave. It's criminal how few warnings have been posted up there about how close to danger civilians are. Walking around Achna and Vrysoulles can be potentially lethal to anyone who isn't a local. The Turkish squaddies are practically in your face and are apt to try and abduct you over what pathetic excuse for a wire there is. At least the UN make the buffer zone clear.
Then what happens?
Don't tell us - they boil you alive in a big pot of water, over a fire, and then eat you?
