Germany would do whatever it could to block Turkey's-EU accession. The entire EU who is in financial crisis is weaker today than it was 7 years ago, while there is a country with a population of 75 million, geographical importance with mass amounts of energy, gas and oil pipelines (connecting Russia), your going to tell me EU would rather be standing behind 1 million people on an island? The Cyprus issue has become more a conflict between Turkey and forces that want to slow down Turkey’s growth than a clash between Turkish and Greek Cypriots. Hence Israel coming into the picture to give support to the south because it is concern of Turkey's east Mediterranean presence's.
So the T/C has all rights to be upset because Merkel did not even speak to any Turkish Cypriot officials and then she supports the ‘settlement’, if you don’t acknowledge the T/C officials then what ‘settlement’ do you support when you don’t even know who is on the other side of the fence.
Listen my friend, if Turkey was a serious candidate for the EU and did everything she needed to do to become a EU member, then there would be no excuses for the EU to keep Turkey out. The fact that Turkey has become it's worse enemy when it comes to the EU by not doing what she said she would do, then don't be surprised if the EU members who does not want Turkey in the EU for them to kick Turkey at every opportunity they get in the hopes that she will just go away. The RoC supports Turkey's EU membership, but what thanks does she get from Turkey for that support.....nothing, just threats. If you thinks it's all geopolitics by these so called anti Turkey EU members, then Turkey is playing right into their hands by proving to them that Turkey does not belong in the EU, but all of Cyprus does and is from North to South and East to West..!
