EP draft resolution: Turkey must begin withdrawing forces from Cyprus

FAMAGUSTA GAZETTE • Fri, Jan 13, 2012

The European Parliament draft resolution on the 2011 Progress Report on Turkey calls on Turkey to begin withdrawing its military troops from Cyprus.

It also calls on Turkey to fully implement the Additional Protocol to the EC-Turkey Association Agreement towards Cyprus, noting that Ankara's refusal to do so continues to deeply affect the process of EU - Turkey negotiations.

That is the draft, I wonder if the final resolution will look the same.

41. Calls on the Turkish Government and all parties concerned to give their active support to the ongoing negotiations on the Cyprus issue and to contribute in concrete terms to a comprehensive settlement, and calls on the Government to facilitate a suitable climate for negotiations by starting to withdraw its forces from Cyprus immediately; strongly urges the two communities in Cyprus to work intensively, in accordance with the UN Secretary-General's request, to capitalise on the progress already made in the negotiations, in order to reach a sustainable solution – in line with the relevant UN Security Council resolutions, and promoting, in particular, Resolution 550 (1984), and with the principles on which the EU is founded – for the benefit of Cypriot citizens, the EU and Turkey;

42. Encourages Turkey to intensify its support for the Committee on Missing Persons in Cyprus, in particular by facilitating its access to military zones and archives, and to take all other appropriate action, in accordance with the findings of the European Court of Human Rights, on the humanitarian issue of missing persons;

43. Calls on Turkey and the Turkish-Cypriot authorities to refrain from any new settlements of Turkish citizens on the island, as this would continue to change its demographic balance and reduce the allegiance of its citizens to a future common state based on its common past; calls on Turkey to address the issue of the settlement of Turkish citizens on the island, in accordance with the Geneva Convention and the principles of the International Law;

44. Urges both parties, Turkey and Armenia, to ratify, without preconditions, the protocols and to open the border, and calls on Turkey to use its regional weight to enhance confidence-building measures;

45. Takes note of the intensified efforts by Turkey and Greece to improve their bilateral relations; considers it regrettable, however, that the casus belli threat declared by the Turkish Grand National Assembly against Greece has not yet been withdrawn; expects the Turkish Government to end the continued violation of Greek airspace and Turkish military aircraft flights over Greek islands;

46. Emphasises that the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea has been signed by the EU, the 27 Member States and all the other candidate countries and that it is part of the acquis communautaire ; calls, therefore, on the Turkish Government to sign and ratify it without further delay;

This is what it was always suppose to be about and now all we need is a President that will keep reminding the UN, and EU of their obligations to the RoC according to the Resolutions they themselves issue.

So who is going to step up to the plate? Mercoullis, Papadopoulos or Lilikas? Who is the brave individual you will tell it the way it is and quote UN Resolutions 353, 541and the Euro Parliament at every opportunity and at the negotiations table?

The people demand it and it is every nation's fundamental right, and they are principles on which the EU was founded, and the RoC is an EU member.

What is Greece doing? Sweet fuck all, bloody bankrupt cowards that they know they are!
