Cyprus Solution Revisited and Turkey's Hypocrisy Unveiled

Linking the Cyprus issue to the Kurdish issue of Turkey is the only effective way to [a] uncover Turkish hypocrisy on her approach to majority-minority community relations [b] bring about a fair and permanent settlement to Cyprus' Turkish problem and [c] help bring community status recognition for the close to 20 million Kurds of Turkey. A win-win-win for the Kurdish, Turkish and Cypriot peoples. It may also bring about the first ever truly democratic constitution in Turkey's history!

Angela Merkel takes sides!

“We greatly appreciate your courage, creativity shown and initiative taken to solve the problem. We see that you are taking many steps and we also see that the Turkish side is not responding adequately to your steps ... We will support the path you have chosen to solve the problem in every way we can. We know this path is not easy and that the solution must be achieved by the people of Cyprus ... I want to thank Mr Christofias because we managed to draft a strategic plan of cooperation between NATO and the CFSP [EU’s Common Foreign and Security Policy]”

Angela Merkel, German Chancellor, January 11, 2011
