*Strasbourg/CoE/Angelo Marcopolo/- Foreign Military Interventions by Turkey are incompatible with a Solution of Cyprus' Issue based on EU Law, stressed the President of Greece, professor Prokopis Pavlopoulos, who is also a French-educated Specialist on Legal issues concerning Public Law of the State.


He was Replying to a Question raised by Liberal French MEP Comte at PanEuropean CoE's Plenary Assembly's Spring 2017 Session this week in Strasbourg (24-28/4/2017), where he was invited to make a Keynote Address to MEPs Today, just Before a Speech at Strasbourg University's "Political Science Forum", scheduled for Later this Aftenoon, on "European Values", (See relevant "Eurofora"s NewsReport at : ...).

The Cyprus Issue is "an Open Wound" since it still Faces, since 1974, a Foreign Military Occupation, he observed, speaking of Ankara's Invasion/Occupation troops at the Northern Part of the Island.
In Fact, it's an International and particularly European Poblem, and not just a National Problem for Greece and Cyprus, he stressed.


Indeed, a Solution of Cyprus Issue could better be found on the Basis of EU Law. Because Cyprus is a Member of the EU, and even of its core area of €uozone, while, in Addition, it's Only a Solution Based on EU Law which could apply the EU Acquis, professor Pavlopoulos observed.


He referred, specificaly, inter alia also f.ex. to "Article 4§2" of the "Primary EU Law", related to EU Member States' "Sovereignity", which is Incompatible with Military Occupation, Foreign "Guarantees", etc.

A Precedent was f.ex. "Germany's ReUnification", where the full Application of EU Acquis had to Wait, from 1989 up to 1993, until the Last Soldier of former USSR Left the Eastern German area, as also the New President of Germany, Experienced former Foreign Minister Steinmeier, recently evoked in EU Parliament in Strasbourg.


Otherwise, it could even create a different, Dangerous Precedent for EU Member States, Risking to Undermine National Sovereignity of EU Countries, so that Noone would ever commit the Crime to yield to something which would Hinder EU's Unity and ability to Defend is own Family. It's Not Only about Cyprus itself, the President of Greece Warned.


Moreover, even Turkey would Gain from a Solution of Cyprus' Issue, while also Turkish Cypriots are Victims of the current situation, he pointed out.   

 

UN sponsored Cyprus Talks have become practicaly Stalled, under various Pretexts, since Turkey presented, a few Months ago, official Claims to maintain Troops at the Island and for other Unilateral Military Interventions in the Future again.

EU Parliament asked, Summer 2008 in Strasbourg, " to place Eurocorps as a standing force under EU command", and "invited all (EU) Member States to contribute to it".

France, Germany, Belgium, Spain, and Luxembourg (participating with Funds, Telecoms and Officers), are EUROCORPS"' main "Framework Nations", due to be joined by Italy in 2009. Greece and Austria participate as "Contributing Nations", while Poland decided to upgrade its role. Turkey has liaison Officers for NATO relations, and even USA decided to send Officers to Strasbourg on 2009.

Observers await with impatience also the outcome of NATO's April 2009 Summit in Strasbourg in order to have a better view of EuroCorps' future.
