Turkish diplomacy is standing before hard choices. Some should be made immediately, some in the short-term and some in the mid-term. The imminent one is concerning the pope's visit that will start tomorrow. The next one should be concerning the Finnish initiative on the Cyprus issue to salvaging Turkey's road of accession before December 6 and 11, ahead of the EU summit. Another short-term one concerns the Turkish stand in Iraq and the mid-term one is about Turkey's Middle East policy with a priority that has to be given to the relations with Syria and within the context of the possible developments in Lebanon."
