[Get Real!]

What a load of rubbish. Ask yourself first if there'd be any TC's left to alive to do this. How long do you think we would survive without the protection of the TA?

Piratis, GR, Oracle, B25, Sotos, RW, Boomerang, Papitis, Kifeas and thousands more are waiting for the "balance of power" to change. With the TA out of the equation means they achieve exactly that and that for us means total extermination.

But you are virtually non-existent with or without Turkey!

Yes, that's right, thanks to you guys. You now have almost a million backward mainlanders to deal with. Bearing in mind you messed up dealing with a handful TC's, it'd be interesting in years to come how you'll be dealing with this lot. Best of luck kid.

I have a question about these rights for Oil and Gas Exploitation.
If the South Government is determined to find a solution to the Cyprus Problem don't you think we have enough on our plates to add another issue?
According UN resolution 1803 (XVII) "1. The right of peoples and nations to permanent sovereignty over their natural wealth and resources must be exercised in the interest of their national development and of the well-being of the people of the State concerned." So who are the people? Now if the 'state' without a settlement is only contributing to the wealth of South Cyprus does this not go against UN Resolution? There are two communities constituting to the 'whole of Cyprus' for self-determination.

What a dumb post!

UN resolution 1803 is pertaining to the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons!

But anyway, shouldn't you be looking at the WHOLE SET of non-abided UN resolutions pertaining to Cyprus that are keeping this country in a mess?

Such as…

UN RESOLUTION 361 (1974)
http://www.un.int/cyprus/scr353.htm

UN RESOLUTION 541 (1983)
http://www.un.int/cyprus/scr541.htm

And your Government is as dumb who shakes hands with Israel who has gone against countless UN Resolution.

What does that mean? Why didnt you whine when Israel was Turkey's biggest ally not too long ago you hypocrite!? And why are you not whining now when your beloved leaders shake hands with war criminals like President Bashir of Sudan? Quit perpetuating the crimes of your father and evolve already. Northern Cyprus does not belong to you exclusively you thief. That is your so called state that YOU proclaim. We can share in our resources when you decide that you want a truly unified State. You cant have your breakaway state and think you can share in the natural wealth and resources of the RoC. wtf is that? Evolve already.

My concern is that if natural resources and wealth is shared amongst all Cypriots then no problems but if it will not be and the South will only enjoy the wealth then don't go making deals until a settlement is found. The more the South creates partnerships it makes the divide wider and partition the likely outcome and if anything instead of a federation a confederation will be adopted until the North is in balance with the South.

So kick the TR army and the settlers back where they came join the ROC and lets share the resourses in the south. then make a deal with TR for the resourses in the north and benefit from that too.

What a load of rubbish. Ask yourself first if there'd be any TC's left to alive to do this. How long do you think we would survive without the protection of the TA?

Lets try that if they leave they are 15min away .........and we are in 2011

Can't be worse than dealing with a spoilt tiny community of tcs that have been used to a life of handouts and civil service jobs. At least the settlers are a good source of cheap labour.

UPDATE 1-Cyprus to have clear oil/gas assessment in 2012

* Cyprus expects new licensing round after drilling

* Indication of offshore reserves expected in 2012

NICOSIA, Jan 19 (Reuters) - Cyprus expects to have a clear assessment of the quantity of offshore hydrocarbons in part of its territorial waters by March 2012, the head of its energy service said on Wednesday.

Noble, (NBL.N) a U.S. firm which has a concession over one offshore block off the east Mediterranean island, is contractually obliged to start drilling between October 2011 and October 2013, Energy Director Solon Kassinis told parliament.

The island has offshore blocks bordering Israel, where Noble and its Israeli partners recently made one of the world's largest deepwater gas finds in the past decade. [nLDE6BS1OF].
