Where did Erdogan say two separate independent states? from what we heard and read he saying two states under a BBF. He saying you have until Jan/Feb of next you year to solve this thing otherwise you can all go to hell and we will find our own solution. We will freeze the EU if the GCs are heading it as we do not recognize them nor will we accept them as our point of contact for the EU.
Now i want to see what the GCs and EU will do they have the balls to do anything? or will they pressurize the GCs to finally agree a solution?
Poor GCs have no hope,VP..The Church and fascist fanatical nationalists are still very influential in the roc and will never allow the politicians to agree to anything..Turkey has what she wants (strong influence in Cyprus) and the EU has what she wants (Turkey out)...This is the end game...Finally Erdogan feels strong enough domestically to tell the EU to go to hell...What he wanted to say all along...
I will tell you what the future holds...Turkey will have a new political presidential federal system within the next 5 years...kktc will be one of the semi-autonomous states (along with Turkish Kurdistan) in this new federation...Erdogan will be the President for life,ruling an autocratic police state...Good night and good luck to you all...
Hello Bir, nice to have you back, it seems none of us old fools is able to stay away from here for ever....
My friend the church does not have the power you imagine, this is not the 50s. Moreover the clergy does not have a single voice. The bishop of Morfou for example is at the occupied every other day... True we have our fanatic nationalists too, but don't forget we elected a leftist president, which means the majority of us do want a solution.
On the contrary the Kibrislis unfortunately lost all power. It is not the majority of real Kibrislis who voted for Eroglu, it is the settlers as you know. From the very first day Eroglu stated publicly that the first subject he would discuss would be the property issue. When you go to negotiations my friend, you know very well what your co-negotiator wants. And you know very well how to bring those negotiations to an end if you want. And that's EXACTLY what Eroglu did. He terminated the negotiations a long time ago. The reason they were continued until today is because of the procedure of the UN implying that when there is deadlock on a subject we continue with other subjects. And in fact there was some progress on other subjects. Why? because they concerned the matter of Government in other words areas on which the Kypreos would have to GIVE, and the Kibrisli side to TAKE.
The latest statements by Erdogan just add to the hastiness of Etoglu to end the talks the soonest possible. As you know there is a new meeting scheduled with the UNSG in October. By that date Erdogan (and his local puppet) want to actually not give even the slightest chance or opportunity to Ban ki Moon to continue the process.
Have to go now, I will continue later...
