"Madam President, I found the Cypriot President’s New Year’s Eve message refreshingly honest, as far as it went. He admitted that the policies implemented on a pan-European level had not succeeded in providing a solution to the crisis.
He could, of course, have gone further and said that, if southern European countries in the eurozone were to revert to their own currencies, each being left to find its own value, those countries would enjoy export-led recoveries. He could have said that EU countries – individually or collectively – should protect their industries from imports from the so-called emergent economies.
Earlier in December 2012, he did explain that the impasse on the Cyprus problem had been caused by Turkey, which used the Cyprus Presidency as an excuse. He might have added that the EU, for all its talk of solidarity, appears not to regard the Turkish occupation of Northern Cyprus and the desecration of its Christian places of worship as an impediment to talks on Turkey becoming a member."@en1
