Report of coments by Mehmet Ali Talat, the President of the self-proclaimed Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus at the European Policy Centre, Brussels, 5 February 2010. He vowed to continue talks with his Greek Cypriot counterpart on a comprehensive settlement of the Cyprus dispute, in spite of an approaching presidential election in the Turkish Cypriot north that is clouding the prospects for a deal. If the talks broke down experts fear Cyprus would risk permanent division, Turkey’s ambition of joining the European Union would be foiled and it would be all but impossible to build closer ties between the EU and Nato. |
