EU cannot play positive role in Cyprus, says Erçakıca

TODAY'S ZAMAN: "EU cannot play positive role in Cyprus, says Erçakıca
European Union term president Portugal is too open to pressure from the Greek side over the Cyprus issue, something that 'indicates that the EU can no longer play a positive role in the solution of the Cyprus issue,' according to a statement made by Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus (KKTC) presidential spokesperson Hasan Erçakıca on Tuesday. Erçakıca's statement came in response to a journalist's question during a weekly press conference as to Portuguese Foreign Minister Luis Amado's recent contacts with Greek Cyprus. Amado did not visit the KKTC. 'This was an attitude revealing negative meanings,' Erçakıca said."
