The UN is throwing Ankara in the feathers – British tactics

According to philenews.com, the United Nations is in line with the wider climate, which is forming in the international arena to “encourage” occupying Turkey. They follow the logic that Ankara should not be bothered, but instead should constantly collect, as it… is useful, for example, in the Ukrainian. That is why the pretexts are not kept even by the UN representative in Cyprus, Colin Stewart, and his team, in the draft report on UNFICYP, which will be submitted to the Security Council by July 5, almost simultaneously with a second which will concern the good services of the G.G. in the Cyprus issue. Mr. Stewart, who operates on the logic that incentives and gifts should be given to the Turkish side, acts in a way that equates the Republic of Cyprus with the pseudo-state. He is said to have indicated in his contacts that Nicosia should be more flexible.

The simple recording of facts about what is being done by the occupying power in the enclosed area of ​​Famagusta, without criticism and references to violations of resolutions and decisions of the Security Council, is not unrelated to the British tactics. The UN team for Cyprus and the British embassy are working very closely together. According to information, the Foreign Office, which έχει is responsible for drafting the resolution, in this case for UNFICYP, has also surveyed Nicosia for the possibility of not opening the issue of Varosia. That is, the issue to fall into the “soft” at this stage. As “F” wrote recently, London’s argument was that if the issue of Famagusta was raised, then the Russians would advance the Turkish positions, due to the position of the Republic of Cyprus on the issue of Ukraine. Such a possibility, as it appears from relevant information does not exist. That is, a change in the Russian attitude.

There is information, according to which in the report for UNFICYP there are references that refer to the well-known tale about the alleged isolation of the Turkish Cypriots. The draft report acknowledges that there is isolation. This is the first time since 2004 that this has been done while describing a bad economic situation for the Turkish Cypriots and making comparisons with the Greek Cypriots. These “innocent” references to the economic data in the occupied territories, the need to overcome them, refer to the well-known Turkish narrative. For the occupying regime, the lifting of the so-called isolation is a vehicle for its political upgrade. It is fully in line with the efforts to recognize the pseudo-state, through international actions.

The effort of the United Nations, as in previous reports, for direct contacts between the Republic of Cyprus and the occupying regime is clear. They note that “community contacts” do not constitute recognition. These contacts should not be confused with the issues of recognition of the pseudo-state, as they note. In this context, there is the well-known idea of ​​institutionalizing a mechanism for solving everyday problems.

At a time when the Turkish side has systematized its efforts to impose its positions on the recognition of “sovereign equality”, “equal international status” and the end of “isolation”, they are facilitated by reports from the United Nations, two entities, operating in parallel.

At the same time, Nicosia, although reportedly annoyed by what is being discussed in New York, on the basis of the draft UNFICYP report, remains trapped in dead-end policies. It is wasted in the MOE and wastes time and effort to send a letter from the High Representative of the European Union for Foreign Affairs and Defense Policy to President Anastasiadis, in which support is expressed to the MOE. In Brussels, they have no reason to look for any other lever of pressure on the troubled Turkey, since the affected country, the Republic of Cyprus, is not claiming. Nicosia’s MOE does not affect Ankara, which through its incumbent, Ersin Tatar, will testify. And then; Potential mediators will be found to look for the middle ground and everyone can understand what that means.
