I read it Lordo and all it says is that the EU is NOT prepared to use any financial leverage to push the RoC for a settlement, so I don't really see the point of the article.

[Lordo]

Dont you indeed. thats becasue you have your charlui greek glasses on. read it a little bit more carefully.

the cyprus issue is being used by the eu for their own interests, mainly keeping turkey out of eu.

so how many more fuckers are going to use cyprus for their interests. of all people the eu. protector turned abuser. where have i heard that before. and you cant even see it.

you and the rest of the gcs and the eu know exactly what to do with yourselves. i am sure you dont wish me to tell you. excluding the usual people who care about cyprus as it were.

[Me Ed]

Lordo, less of the Greek reh.

If it wasn't Cyprus, I'm sure the EU would have found another reason to keep Turkey out.

[GreekIslandGirl]

EU wants to remain Turk-free.

The articles says a lot of things that could possibly happen possibly not.
In my opinion nothing will change as long as Eroglu is the leader in the occupied.
Even if someone like Talat or similar comes to power there's still the obstacle of Turkey.

[Maximus]

Turkey is on the verge of radical and runs an elite hypocrisy. It is more probable that she will severely damage her relations with the west, than attain EU membership.

(the TTTT is her laggard so no solution to the "cyprob" on the horizon from my perspective.)

Talat was and is over-rated, he would run off to Ankara for instructions every other week.

A weakling and politician of little conviction despite the promises.

Yet another joke thread Fred.

The AP was illegal, number 6 will have to be very different to adhere to international law.

Against the plan
"I consider the Annan plan to be fundamentally flawed. To put it in common language I consider that plan to be a non-starter. It is so incompatible with international law and international human rights norms that it is nothing less than shocking that the organisation would bend to political pressure and political interest on the part of my country of nationality [the USA] and Great Britain, in order to cater for the interests of a NATO partner.... I think it is not salvageable, quite honestly. I think it cannot be saved, and if it were saved I think it would be a major disservice not only to the Cypriot people but a disservice to international law; because everything that we at the UN have tried to build over 60 years, the norms of international law that have emerged in international treaties, in resolutions of the Security Council, would be weakened if not made ridiculous by an arrangement that essentially ignores them, makes them irrelevant or acts completely against the letter and spirit of those treaties and resolutions." Alfred de Zayas, a leading expert in the field of human rights, as well as a former high-ranking United Nations official.[63
