Exactly. Strange "region" which needs 40,000 troops to keep it from reverting to its legal owners.

Well seeing she will never get her house in order as you put it, no problem.


The answer is a "NO", but you are forgetting something, which is, the north is NOT a province of Turkey, but an illegal occupation by Turkey. There is a HUGE difference.

Its all good loving, you can dress it how you wish in your own imagination Turkey has been our only ally and support that says a lot in anyones book, you cannot change that by spouting out a few words.


Are you not the one who spouts all the time that the "trnc" is an "independent and sovereign country", regardless how wrong you are in your spouting, in your mind you believe it, therefore, how can you then state that the "trnc" is a province of Turkey ? Defies all logic and common sense, don't you think ? :roll:

Kikapu really whats it to you what we are a country a province an area makes absolutely no difference in the gran scheme of things, whats important is that we are divided and will remain that way until both sides want a solution at the same time otherwise it will be more of the same. You can gidiup on your high horse of democracy human rights and EU criteria, it dont mean jack shit of people arent buying.

What do you mean? What about all the trouble the RoC has caused Turkey in the international courts? In the EU? The embargoes? The lack of direct trade? Direct flights? Over Turkey's frozen EU accession?

Turkey has had nothing but trouble from the RoC. Where did you get the impression that the G/Cs haven't made Turkey's life a misery? Ask any Turkish diplomat...

End result Davutoglu threatens to throw his toys out of the pram because Turkey can't sit at the grown-ups' table. It's bloody funny. But I don't think you can see the joke...

Its called standing up for your principles Turkey will not do what the GCs want them to do, they do not recognize you so therefore they are willing to freeze the EU process thats how strongly they feel about us.
