The EU must not accept any threats against the Cyprus ....

The EU should not accept any Turkish threats against the Republic of Cyprus, which will assume the rotating presidency of the Council of the EU in the second half of 2012, Prime Minister of Poland Donald Tusk has stressed.
Speaking on Wednesday during a press conference with President of Cyprus Demetris Christofias in Nicosia, the Polish Prime Minister noted that the Republic of Cyprus will assume the EU presidency as a member state of the Union and will thus represent the whole Union.

Moreover, Tusk expressed hope that the Cyprus talks continue so that a solution is found in Cyprus, which has been divided since the Turkish invasion in 1974.
In his statements, President Christofias said that Turkish threats to upgrade the so called state in the Turkish occupied areas of Cyprus as well as its threats to freeze its relations with the EU during Cyprus` six monthly rotating EU presidency, can not be accepted by the EU or the international community.
The Cypriot President also said that Turkey should abide by international law, otherwise, as he stressed, Ankara is not worthy to have the status of a candidate country for accession to the EU.
