The talks on Cyprus play a role of barometer in terms of reflecting the level of intensity of contradictions between the EU and the USA. They are not pondering on the future of Cyprus because of having nothing else to do. The results of the talks that carried out under the mandate of the UN since the de facto division of Cyprus in 1974 were well known in the beginning. In recent years, especially since the EU membership of South Cyprus came into agenda, the ball for the solution of the Cyprus question has passed from the UN (the USA) to the EU and from the EU to the UN. The initiative has sometimes been in the hands of the UN and sometimes in the hands of the EU, at least it appeared so. It is understood that the end of the game is getting close. It is understood that, in the island, none of the imperialist powers, practically the EU and the USA, will pose a full and undivided hegemony. In this sense, the reconciliation is not based on the unification according to the Annan Plan but it is based on the division of the island. This reality clearly reflects, what the sides want and what they do not want.

The borders of the EU will extend to the Eastern Mediterranean by the membership of Cyprus. The control of the region is very important for any power that struggles for worldwide hegemony. With the hegemony of Cyprus, the EU will have an important base in respect to its rivalry with the American imperialism in the hegemonic struggle on Middle East.

Cyprus is also very important for the American imperialism. This island is important for strengthening the Middle East part of the USA's Eurasia geo-politics and the control of one of the routes (Baku-Ceyhan pipeline) that will carry the resources of the Caspian Basin (oil and natural gas) to the world market. One of the most important problems of the American imperialism is to prevent any rival force to seize the control of this area.

Greece and the Greek Cypriots are struggling to rule Cyprus as a whole. Greece has not given up its aim of Enosis.

On the other hand, Turkey and the Turkish Cypriots are in favour of the division. Likewise, the Turkish side has not given up its understanding on division.

The Annan Plan is inspired mainly by the model of Switzerland. According to the plan, there will be a central state and a central government based on two major autonomous regions (Cantons) with broad authority. The Turkish side (Turkey and Cypriot Turks) are taking part in the talks in order to bring the plan to a frame that can be accepted by them. That is to say that they are struggling to keep the existing status qua as it is. Thus, the basic characteristics of a separate state structure will remain despite the establishment of a central state. On the contrary, the Greek side is struggling for as limited as possible rights for the Turkish side and that it loses its characteristics of being a state that way.

Greek side's desire on Enosis and Turkish side's desire on division are being made dependent on the imperialist interests. Both sides are seeing that their desires cannot be realized as they thought. That is why Greece makes refuge to the EU while Turkey makes refuge to the USA. Because they think that they can achieve their strategic aims; "Enosis" and "division" by this way.

Imperialists are imposing an imperialist solution on the basis of their imperialist interests in Cyprus and appropriate with the actual power balances. The dependent countries such as Greece and Turkey, those who are the direct sides of the question and in occupant position in the island, cannot do anything else then being a puppet of the imperialist forces and determine their policies in accordance with the interests of the imperialists.

The Turkish side wanted the USA to sit around the table. On the contrary, the Greek side wanted the EU to involve in the negotiations. The demands of both sides were accepted. However, this situation shows which powers are in the determining position in the solution of the question. And, both sides are not hiding this.

The predetermined solution, on which they decided from the very beginning of the Cyprus "question", and which shall be carried out quickly, stirred up the chauvinist hysteria between the Turkish and Greek people for decades and is expressing the will of the EU and the USA imperialists.

In today's conditions, the policy of the EU corresponds to the policy of Greece and the Cypriot Greek side. Ant the USA's policy corresponds to the policy of Turkey and the Cypriot Turkish side. Both sides are not happy with the developments, but they do not have any other choice.

Cyprus question, which is the direct result of the rivalry among the imperialists, is going to be "solved" as a direct result of the rivalry among the imperialists.

The peoples of the island are also not involved in the plan. All these plans were drawn without asking the Turkish and the Greek people in the island. Why? Because, the imperialist interests consider it as necessary.

The real solution in Cyprus can only be realized through withdrawal of the imperialist and occupant forces from the island and by leaving self-determination right of Cyprus to the free wills of the people in the island. The real solution in Cyprus is the Workers' and Labourers' Soviet Republic of Cyprus that will be realized through volunteer unity of the Greek and Turkish people; working class and labourers in the island.

Imperialists and all occupant forces get out of the island!

Cyprus belongs to Cypriots!
