/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan
warned the European Union that his state will not make concessions
in the Cypriot issue. "We cannot take asymmetric moves on the issues
inadmissible for us," he said. Earlier Erdogan reiterated that Turkey
will open her ports for Cyprus only after the lifting of international
isolation of the Northern Cyprus.
"A problem like the Cypriot one cannot be resolved via blackmail or
setting terms for its resolution," Turkish Foreign Minister Abdullah
Gul told NTV. The Turkish government stated that the Cypriot issue is
a political problem and its resolution is not a condition of the EU
negotiation process that bears a technical nature, reports RIA Novosti.
