Abstract

The Cyprus Problem is one of the few disputes world-wide to have remained unaffected by the end of the Cold War. The island is the site of the longest-lasting United Nations peacekeeping operation. UN troops were first sent to the island in March 1964, on a six-monthly mandate, which has been renewed on the same basis ever since. Writing in 1994, Anthony Parsons concluded his thoughts on Cyprus with the suggestion that it would be better to allow the status quo of de facto division of the island to continue: At present it looks as though the status quo will persist without violence and loss of life on the island but with periodic incantations from the United Nations designed to encourage the parties and their champions to appease international concern by making concessions which neither wholeheartedly supports. Maybe it would be better to leave well enough alone, however diplomatically untidy it is.1 Unfortunately, new elements in the situation since Sir Anthony wrote the violence on the Green Line, leading to four deaths in the summer of 1996, and the Greek Cypriot order for Russian surface-to-air missiles , have made the problem appear more dangerous, and have caused the redoubling of efforts to find a solution.

  4. Parsons, Anthony (1995), From Cold War to Hot Peace: UN interventions 1947-94. London; Michael Joseph, 1995, chapter 13 (“Cyprus”). The quotation is from pp. 178-79. Anthony Parsons worked at the British Embassy in Turkey in the 1950s, and was later Britain’s Ambassador to the United Nations and Special Advisor on Foreign Policy to Margaret Thatcher. To give just two recent examples: “We want. a Cyprus of inter-communal partnership, a bridge of friendship between Turkey and Greece”, Rauf R. Denkta_, opening address at the First International Congress on Cypriot Studies, Famagusta, 20-23 November 1996, Proceedings p. 22; “Our conviction is that Cyprus. should be developed into a bridge for cooperation between European and Middle Eastern countries”, Kyriacos Christofi, Minister of Commerce, Industry and Tourism, at a conference, 28 March 1997 (Cyprus News Agency report). Possibly Turkey’s interest was more of a reaction to Greece’s widening of the question of the future of the island by referring the matter to the United Nations. Xydis, Stephen (1967); Cyprus: Conflict and Conciliation, 1954-1958, Columbus: Ohio State University Press;
  5. Bağcı, Hüseyin, ‘The situation during the Cold War’, First International Congress on Cypriot Studies, Proceedings, p. 88. Interestingly, the effect of conflict between Greece and Turkey in other areas tends not to have a significant effect on the island. The Imia-Kardak incident in early 1996 brought the two motherlands to the brink of war over a group of uninhabited rocks, but there was no noticeable increase in tension in Cyp
