translation.bs: Turska ne priznaje grčku vladu na Kipru, koji se pridružio EU u maju 2004, i odbija dozvoliti brodovima i avionima kiparskih Grča ulazak u svoje luke i aerodrome.Turska je saopštila da će to učiniti tek kad 25-člana Unija ispuni svoje ranije obećanje o ublažavanju ekonomske izolacije zajednice kiparskih Turaka, čiju odcijepljenu državu priznaje samo Ankara.
translation.en: Turkey does not recognise the Greek-run government of Cyprus, which joined the EU in May 2004, and has been refusing to allow Greek Cypriot ships and planes to enter its ports and airports. It said it would only do that after the 25-nation bloc makes good on an earlier promise to ease the economic isolation of the Turkish Cypriot community, whose breakaway state is recognised by Ankara alone.
