What Rubbish are you talking about?
In 1974, after Greece tried to annex the island on the 15th July 1974 and Turkey responded, Britain agreed, wrongly, to allow the ROC to continue under the Administration of the Greek Cypriots BUT locked in an endless UN based negotiations process in order to seek an amicable deal BASED on the Original 1960 Structure of a PARTNERSHIP Agreement, and then later updated with the High Level Agreements. That is why Your leaders have always been COMPELLED to sit at a table and discuss such a deal, and that is why the INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY has never felt it RIGHT to FORCE Turkey to leave Northern Cyprus - as they are there under the INVITATION of the PARTNER-Turkish Cypriot people of the ORIGINAL REPUBLIC OF CYPRUS. Man are you IGNORANT.
Wake up man. What are you EXACTLY trying to Say. The ISLAND will ALWAYS be Locked in this UNITED NATIONS Process until either an amicable PARTNERSHIP Agreement is found or Partition of Some kind, following the example of other CONFLICT Area, acts as a basis for perhaps a future agreement.
If the MEMEBER of the EU of the GREEK CYPRIOT ROC had any significance and had ORIGINALLY been thought of as a MEANS to solving the Issue, Clearly the GREEK CYPRIOT Administration has messed it up for the Block. I DO NOT See the EU DEMANDING Turkey to abid by what the Greek Cypriots say as Turkey is Still, after so many GC thought Blunders by Turkey, an EU-Candidate Country. If your EU application was so IMPORTANT, what the hell is the EU stilll doing agreeing to Turkey's EU Candidancy. Come on Man, stop talking Rubbish.
The Truth of the matter is that Turkey is moving AWAY from the EU due to this Double Standards policy and the Greek Cypriots will eventually realise that the EU will act as a double-edged sword when PUSH comes to SHOVE. At the moment, you guys have been lucky, but Turkey is no longer having any more of it. Either the Cyprus issue is resolved as a BBF Confederal Formula, Two States or Turkey leaves the EU UNTIL the EU feels the back hand of the policy of the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.
Jesus Christ Get Real....of all people, you must know how politics affecting our people both in Turkey, Greece and Cyprus works. If YOU are so right, then answer this......Why is Christofias so bent on Blaming EROGLU for walking away from the "UN LEAD NEGOTIATIONS" and NOT HIMSELF? Come on man, even my 15 year old son studying for his GCSE exams can tell you the answer to that - and he regards himself as a Social Democrat!
The Strength the GCs rely so much (by being this all great member of the EU) on is an illusionary one, one that will be their ultimate failure if they do not broker a FEDERAL/CONFEDERAL Deal based on other examples seen around the world.
Utter rubbish 1950s talk!
The year is 2010, and Cyprus has just celebrated her 50th birthday as a sovereign UN member!
READ UN RESOLUTION 361 (1974) AGAIN, AND AGAIN, AND AGAIN, AND AGAIN until you can stand straight no more…
1.Calls upon all States to respect the sovereignty, independence and territorial integrity of Cyprus.
3.Demands an immediate end to foreign military intervention in the Republic of Cyprus…
4. Requests the withdrawal without delay from the Republic of Cyprus of foreign military personnel present…

So climb OFF your high horse and come down to reality because you’re a broken and defeated minority of incompetent Ottoman remnant nincompoops, utterly powerless to overcome the Natural Selection Process of Cyprus.
