I can't agree with that Boomers... the goods leave an EU country and finally arrive at another EU country with Turkey in the middle as a carrier. She cannot fuck the EU around and get away with it. The repercussions would be phenomenal for her...


what's there to disagree GR...i agree with you in the event the gas passes through turkish territtory turkey has no choice but to deliver it to the eu...

Sorry... I somehow misread "can't" for "can"... :?


i know mate the constant bitch slapping of the partitionists got the better of you...understable... :lol:

And that's precisely why your proposal is preposterous. Turkey also wants the whole cow (Cyprus) not just the milk! Why should they be bought off just with fuel?

Of course, now that they know people like you are weakening to their blackmails, having first made you lose your identity and now offering them gifts/bribes - they merely need to wait and, next, "Cypriots" like you will be offering them ......!

So a proposal that liberates the entire enslaved Cypriot territory and repatriates the undesirables to Turkey is preposterous??? :?

Come on woman… start making some sense! :roll:


A proposal which will liberate "... the entire enslaved Cypriot territory ..." etc is NOT preposterous, but worthwhile!

- However, YOUR proposal is NOT destined to achieve our desires for all the shortcomings described in the thread.

GR! The sentiment is good, but the means are fantasy. Frankly, I'm surprised you have been influenced to become so naive regarding Turkey - the murderous enemy with whom we have attempted to negotiate by offering MANY concessions; and each time being reminded they want the whole shebang.

he is telling you he is prepared to give his right arm to rid the turkish cancer but you ain't listening...because you are a greek and you have no affiliation with cyprus...understandable since only one of your parents is cypriot...his love of cyprus is above everything...now you get it?...

There is no amount of money in this world that I wouldn't forego to see my island free from occupation and free from Turkey's (and Greece) clutches.

There are merits in using Oil and gas reserves to free our country. We don't have to give it away, we could just promise Turkey a gas Supply for 50+ years which she will pay for, and we can look at pipelines going to western Europe via Turkey. Turkey, i gather will maintain the infrastructure, and also be paid a hansom amount for transmission of oil and Gas to western Europe. We are talking about Billions in revenue. Also, turkey will become an Energy hub and its inclusion within the EU would be inevitable.

A win win for all! :)

With this oil and Gas come very unique opportunities for our island. I hope our leaders grab these opportunities with both hands for the good of Cyprus and its people. :)

I think Turkey is thinking the same, for the RoC to build it's pipelines through Turkey to the EU, and to make the deal happen, is for Turkey to reciprocate by piping water to Cyprus. Unfortunately, Turkey may think this is all Evens Stevens and it's a wash, therefore for her to remain in Cyprus. This is why, it is imperative for Cyprus to have a secondary pipeline to the EU via Greece or by turning the Gas to LPG on the island and have it transported by ships. Cyprus must never put all her eggs in one basket when it comes to the Gas & Oil. Besides, Israel will also have a say on how her gas is transported to the EU. They may too would not want to put all their Gas Eggs only in the "Turkish basket".

Yes Israel would have the biggest say in all of this I gather. I believe it is practically going to be up to Delek and Noble Energy and I think Israel has practically had a gutfull of Turkey.

Still, there is no reason why the RoC can't sign a deal with Russia, or France and there is no reason why they can't build another pipeline via Turkey.

Sorry, I mistook you for someone who does not want to see the Island under Turkish occupation for evermore.

Carry on doing deals with Turkey, then ... :roll:
