It is obvious the talks want a boost to conclude.

The GC side has waited 36 some years... a closure now would be preferred.

The TC side waited as long and, if you ask me, they had enough of political maneuvering... they want closure too!

The ball is at Erdogan's court. He needs to make his move. What is required:

1. Return Varoshia unconditionally.
2. Return Morphou unconditionally.
3. Immediate 50% reduction of occupying Turkish troops with no strings attached.
4. Recognize ROC.
5. Provide assurances for war reparations to both sides.

These conditions are doable without losing face. If all 5 are announced, the talks can move forward faster due to the fact that Turkey demonstrates the will to resolve, no more "pazaria".

Turkey knows (EU accession terms), these steps are to be implemented sooner or later... so why not sooner?

And what will the GCs give in return?

A pat in the back.

a pat on the back is a very great reward, when we ask for things back in return the tc side laughs and says ha you will have nothing and then goes on to demand 100 more things

Well the only thing left Mr Gregorious above has not asked us to give (unconditionally as well) is our ass!

How is that different?

Plus we don't want anything from "you".

For example you want Omorphou, meaning the relocation of thousands of families. We want direct trade, meaning you do not actually have to do anything.

How is that even comparable?

[paliometoxo]

lift the borders and tell the ta army to go home and there is your direct trade right there.

That's not direct trade, thats chaos.

The second we do that the RoC army will be all over us like bees!
