The Ecologists express their concern about Turkey's continued guarantees from NATO in a statement.
"Turkey with its brazen policy has managed to obtain quid pro quos to lift its objections to Sweden and Finland's NATO membership. The Mediterranean bully, with NATO's blessing, is further strengthening its position in the region, with the negative impact on Greece and Cyprus being obvious. Instead of imposing serious sanctions on Turkey, both NATO and the EU are not only imposing 'sanctions' on Turkey, but also rewarding it from above," the Ecologists say in their statement.
At the same time, reference is made to President Anastasiades who yesterday in Madrid told Erdogan that he is ready to resume negotiations for a Cyprus settlement under the auspices of the UN.
"But the recent actions of the occupation regime and Turkey against both Greek Cypriots and Turkish Cypriots, combined with the new assurances of provocative Turkey, paint a very ominous picture of the intentions of the occupying power in Cyprus and outline the possible outcome of the negotiations," they note.
