Cyprus should not be a EU member before Turkey

Denktas said in any agreement that does not acknowledge the state of TRNC and the sovereignty of the Turkish Cypriot people, Turks on Cyprus would become a minority, adding that only an agreement accepting these facts and Turkey’s guarantorship would be acceptable.

Cyprus should not become a EU member before Turkey, said Denktas, claiming that what Greece and Greek Cyprus were doing was a indirect way to reach Enosis.
