why are the brits worried about an insurance policy?
should they not have highlighted this situation before the referendum. what do you expect for a couple inbred eaton graduates
TC’s insurance would be the EU, just as it is now in N. Ireland and Éire. What more can the TCs ask for?
if that s the case how come the irish are demanding an insurance policy, after all southern ireland will be in the eu right?
does that look like sufficent insurance not to demand a backstop?
Yes but, the UK won’t be in the EU (maybe). However, the whole of Cyprus is already in the EU and will remain in the EU as long as we have a BBF. If on the other hand there is a 2 state solution where the south is in the EU and the north is not, then your suggestion would be more appropriate, or else, we get Trump to build a wall between the two states!
why would the north not be in the eu. al the tcs have eu passports. eu has no choice but to accept by international law. they will just demand a border between troc and terggy and there is the sea to help out with that one anyway. why are gcs worried about an insurance policy after all it is being offered by a nato country.
The only reason the TCs have a European citizenship and Passports, is through the RoC. If there is a two state solutions, the RoC will retain it’s position as a EU member state and the north would become an independent sovereign state under trnc, who has never been an EU member state and nor will it ever. The only question that will remain to solve is, what happens to the TCs as citizens of the RoC. If the RoC can revoke most, if not all TCs as RoC citizens, hence EU citizens, then the TCs would then become only the citizens of the trnc and no longer citizens of the RoC and no longer citizens of the EU until if and when the trnc can negotiate to become a EU member state. Good luck that getting an approval from the RoC and Greece, not to mention the rest of the EU members since they know Turkey would use the EU state trnc to manipulate the EU. I believe the TCs born in Cyprus before 1974 May have a case with the ECHR for them to retain their RoC citizenship, hence retain their EU citizenship. It is what is agreed to during the negotiations to form two state agreements.
