EU Commissioner says Turkish Cypriots self-isolated

Nicosia, Jul 27 (CNA) - Cypriot Commissioner of the EU for Health and Consumer Protection Markos Kyprianou said that Turkish Cypriot leader Mehmet Ali Talat should not complain about isolation because he was the one imposing self-isolation on the Turkish Cypriots.

The Commissioner said he was prevented by Talat to cross over into the Turkish occupied areas of the Republic and hold meetings with Turkish Cypriot political parties, adding that this was an issue that should be examined by the EU.

Cypriot Government Spokesman Kypros Chrysostomides said that Talat does not wish for cooperation with the EU but rather just to enjoy the financial fruits of the EU regulations, noting that the European Commission should examine the Turkish Cypriot leader's stance.

Cyprus says full implementation of Ankara Agreement required

Nicosia, Jul 29 (CNA) - A Turkish statement of non recognition of the Cyprus Republic, including a provision that Ankara forbids the entry of Cypriot aircraft and vessels, will not satisfy the European Union, Cypriot Government Spokesman Kypros Chrysostomides has said.

He also noted that what is important is the full implementation of the Ankara Agreement to cover all EU member states, new and old, in all fields.

The Spokesman was commenting on reports in the Turkish press that Ankara, after signing the protocol expanding its customs union to the ten new members of the EU, will issue a declaration of non recognition that will also include a note that the customs union refers only to industrial products and that its airports and ports will be closed for Cyprus.
