The mind boggles?

Territory, along with property and security, are considered the thorniest aspects of the Cyprus problem and would be the hardest to resolve.

Anastasiades said there was interest from some UN Security Council members to assist on the security issue.

“I think any effort to intervene in a fully justified demand of the Greek Cypriot side that does not hurt the Turkish Cypriot in any way, is very useful,” he said.

One of the main sticking points are the guarantees, which the Greek Cypriot side opposes.

Anastasiades has proposed having a multinational police force, or a UN force with a strengthened mandate, to preempt and suppress risks that could emerge.

He said it was not justified to insist on the presence of the Turkish army, or guarantee rights or the intervention rights of a country that remained alone in claiming this.

Greece, Turkey, and Great Britain are all guarantor powers under the Zurich agreement, which established the Republic of Cyprus in 1960.

[Keithcaley]

trooper, it is quite in order to start a sentence with a conjunction, according to the Oxford English Dictionary.

And they should know!

Pedantry can be fun - it might be correct but it lacks style. As I said you can do better than that. Have a good 'un.

Additionally (or In addition) there is often an alternative.....

I don't think he (GC's leader) wants peace he wants it to go back to pre 1974 they are treating us as idiots and 2nd class citizens as we have no brains and intelligence. He is not moving with the times and is living in the past not in the 21st century

It confirms my belief that all politicians are liars and only have one agenda to look after themselves

I do want peace but it has to be fair and secure for all Cypriots otherwise it will not last.

Denizismail, you say in message 8

"It confirms my belief that all politicians are liars and only have one agenda to look after themselves"

With a statement like that you just disqualifiy yourself. You find good and bad politicans in all countries in Europe (and most probably everywhere) ,
also honest ones and less honest ones. And this refers to both parts of Cyprus as well.
