ANKARA - Turkish Daily News
Turkish Cypriot Prime Minister Mehmet Ali Talat yesterday compared the Greek Cypriot administration with Austrian far-right leader J�rg Haider, saying the European Union should exclude the Greek Cypriots due to their uncompromising attitude over finding a resolution to the Cyprus dispute, as it had excluded Haider upon his glory in elections.
Talat said the EU should not allow the Greek Cypriot administration any rest since it wasn't behaving in a European fashion by insisting on the isolation of the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus (KKTC).
�It's the EU's duty to find creative formulas for lifting the isolation and, if needs be, to push aside this small, aggressive society (the Greek Cypriots) that doesn't act European,� Anatolia quoted Talat as saying. "
