". This proposal for a Council regulation amending the Council Regulation on the European Agency for Reconstruction has political implications for the Republic of Cyprus that we feel are extremely serious. As has previously been stated, what is being proposed is to use an EU agency to manage future Community financial resources earmarked for the Turkish Cypriot Community, when that agency was created to manage Community financial resources earmarked for the Balkans, following the break-up of Yugoslavia. In other words, the plan is now to use the agency, which administers financial resources earmarked for third countries, which obviously does not apply to Cyprus, to provide ‘assistance’ to the Turkish Cypriot community living under occupation by Turkish troops. This measure will in fact result in the tacit recognition of the occupying authorities and of the illegal Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus, which is only recognised by Turkey. What is thus being proposed is a financial aid package to the Turkish Cypriot community, which completely overlooks the fact that part of the territory of the Republic of Cyprus, an EU Member State, is under Turkish military occupation, and that is unacceptable. I also wish to highlight the paradox of voting on the use of the agency for the practical implementation of a regulation"@en1
