Sixty five thousand TCs endorse the membership by seeking, and getting, RoC passports since 2004. EU citizens, enjoying the benefits but none of the obligations of EU membership. This is the result of the EU decision not to extend the aquis to the occupied territories. By simply stepping over the green line TCs get the status of EU citizens and reap the benefits. Going back over the line they are free of EU obligations. Chameleons are less gifted.
Small but eloquent example- prohibition of drastic agrichemicals like lannate. Banned in the EU, sold openly in the occupied territories.
