Could Jeffrey Sachs Solve the Cyprus Problem?

How come we can say that both side wants peace while it was the Greek Cypriot people who refused the 2004 UN peace plan? This is not solvable as long as Greek Cypriots desires to be the sole ruler in the island and continues to force school children to praise EOKA terrorists

The Cyprus problem will be solved when both parts agree to drive on the right side of the road.

Lovely idea but somewhat naive sadly. There is an element of ‘holy war’ in that the Islamist Erdogan wants to recreate the Caliphate and expel all Christians from the land. Lets just call it for what it is.

Which international problems were already solved by Mr. Sachs?

sachs is a absolute legend in political analysm and he is also absolutely naive the same time believing that turkey has any interest other than reinstate a neoottoman empire and reconquer all lost teritories. we watch in real time a 2nd nazigermany "lebensraum" ideology unfold

It is extremely tiresome to keep seeing Türkiye painted as the obstacle to a solution in Cyprus. It reflects a lack of research more than anything. Türkiye backed a federal settlement from 1974 to 2017, supported the Annan Plan and supported the talks at Crans-Montana. Let's not forget who rejected the Annan Plan…

Solution for Greeks is no Turks on the island

I agree. It is completely solvable. Almost 20 years ago we had a real opportunity to solve it w/ Annan Plan. We held a referendum asking both sides if they wanted to unify & enter EU together as a single country. The Greek side rejected the plan & Turks left behind.

Only we together can solve our own problem

Kıbrısta sorun mu varmış sorunu olan adadan gidebilir biz şuan ki durumdan memnunuz

Very naive indeed. Guy is clueless

Turkish side of Cyprus voted yes to unification the south rejected it if I remember correctly

What invasion lol

The Cyprus problem is Greeks thinking Cyprus is Greek.

@RTErdogan

The only solution for Cyprus is Greeks leaving the island

LET'S GO Mr. SACHS !!!!

Why not Unite Cyprus with its 1877 status qou?

Nobody could as long as the britons occupy Akrotiri and Dhekelia.

It was greek cyprus who rejected Annan plan, problem is not with 🇹🇷 its nash equilibrium not pareto state

🤣

If you see that as an invasion, we don't see a solution.

Well you are a fool if you guys are expecting one aided solution! There was referandum years ago and southern side refused for unity! Also, you guys are lucky because it is Turkiye as peace was kept going for many years. There could have been war if it was another country.
