Abstract

Environmental challenges are on the increase every day and the protection of European ecosystems is becoming more critical for the European Union (EU). Through the European environment policy framework, various instruments have been introduced but the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus (TRNC) is an exceptional case where the acquis communautaire is suspended until a political settlement is reached. This paper examines together the EU’s ability in providing environmental security as an element of environmental protection within its borders and problematizes the EU engagement in the TRNC and environmental protection on the island. The EU’s abilities and its capacity in the protection of the environment in Cyprus can be enhanced by engaging more with the Turkish Cypriot authorities on the issues of environmental protection.

Özet

Her geçen gün artan çevre kirliliğine bağlı olarak, Avrupa ekosisteminin korunması Avrupa Birliği (AB) için daha da önemli bir mesele haline gelmektedir. Avrupa Çevre Politikaları çerçevesinde birtakım araçlar bu bağlamda mevcuttur ancak Kuzey Kıbrıs Türk Cumhuriyeti (KKTC), topluluk müktesebatının siyasi bir çözüme kadar askıya alındığı sıra dışı bir durum olarak karşımıza çıkmaktadır. Bu makale, AB'nin kendi sınırları içinde çevre korumanın bir unsuru olarak çevre güvenliğini sağlama becerisini birlikte incelemekte ve AB'nin KKTC'deki katılımını ve adadaki çevre korumasını sorunsallaştırmaktadır. Makale, AB’nin Kıbrıs özelinde çevrenin korunması bağlamında kapasitesini artırabilmesi için Kıbrıslı Türk otoritelerle daha fazla ilişki kurmasını önermektedir.
