this is from the turkish newspaper milleyet:
EUROPE TO PROPOSE NEW CYPRUS PLAN
European constitutional experts have reportedly prepared a new Cyprus plan as an alternative to UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan’s plan, and the plan is expected to be presented in a month’s time to Ankara, Athens, the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus (TRNC) and the Greek Cypriot administration. The experts will then urge the European Parliament and European Commission to intervene in favor of their plan. /Milliyet/ |

This is the first I hear of this...
How can you guys take it so easy???
I mean, a plan from Europe is something that GCs are not likely to reject, for psychological reasons, if nothing else...
If that happens, a whole new road opens... This has got me so excited  |

I hope this so called EU plan, takes into consideration the complexities of the island, otherwise it will surely be rejected.
And any further rejection irregardeless of which community it comes from, brings us closer to partition everyday.
Have a good day, |

Any solution which is prepared by the EU will tend to incorporate more of the GC' swishes against TC wishes because EU is not a independent body since GC have become member to it.
That is whay I am very pessimistic. In order to find a lasting solution to Cyprus, there has to be exist many derogations to EU law, which I believe EU will hesitate to give.

I believ majority of TCs will want EU membership. I do not on the other hand. I believe being outside the EU would help Cyprus economically much more, than being inside.
Thanks,
p.s. name is "turkcyp" not "tcyp". I believe there is another member with that name, so I want to clear the confusion. |

Dude, I don't think you have much to worry about. The EU wants to get the freakin' thing out of the way (meaning, the Cyprus problem), cuz it's causing more fuss than either we or TCs are worth to them, plus it could jeopardise Turkey's accession talks. They are not trying to satisfy anyone but themselves.
I think what they're trying to do is please both of us, so we'd solve the damn thing and be done with it once and for all, so they won't have to worry about us any more. I think the reason is obvious. On the other hand, if it's not balanced and one of the two communities rejects it, it's gonna be there, relations between the two communities will probably become even more tense, and they'll have more to worry about, don't you think?
Plus, I think if you examine what happened in Brussels a little less than a month ago, you'd come to the conclusion that we aren't as influential in Europe as we'd like to be... |
