Cypriot parliamentarian tables statement on Turkey during PACE session Nicosia, Jan 24 (CNA) – Cypriot member of the House of Representatives Antigoni Papadopoulou has tabled a statement during the deliberations of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe (PACE), informing members on a judgment by the European Court of Human Rights earlier this month which found Turkey guilty of human rights violations in Cyprus. In her written statement which was signed by a large number of PACE parliamentarians, Papadopoulou noted that the ECHR decision in the case of “Varnava and Others v. Turkey”, issued on January 10, ruled that Turkey is guilty of violations of the rights of nine Greek Cypriot missing persons and their relatives, making the country responsible for the violations of articles 2, 3 and 5 of the European Convention on Human Rights. Papadopoulou said that the ECHR decision points the attention to Turkey’s obligation to respect the injured and prisoners of war, as well as citizens, according to the relevant international conventions and international law. Through this judgment, said Papadopoulou, Turkey’s position that those persons who vanished during the Turkish invasion of Cyprus in 1974 should be considered dead, is refuted. The Council of Europe, said Papadopoulou in her written statement, calls on Turkey once again to fulfill its obligations under the European Convention on Human Rights, implement the soonest the ECHR decision, conduct an effective investigation in ascertaining the fate of the missing, grant clear information on the Greek Cypriots Prisoners of war and allow access to the Turkish army and prisons’ records. In its judgment the Court said Turkey is guilt of “the continuing violation of Article 2 of the European Convention on Human Rights on account of failure of the authorities of the respondent state (Turkey) to conduct an effective investigation into the whereabouts and fate of the nine first applicants who disappeared in life threatening circumstances”. The Court also ruled that there was violation of Article 3 which prohibits inhuman treatment and Article 5 (right to liberty and security). Cyprus has been divided since 1974 when Turkish troops invaded and occupied the island’s northern third. .

ASSESSING the CYPRIOT MEP's PERFORMANCE
52 Cilt/Volume V Sayı/Number 1 Nisan/April 2012 Sosyal Bilimler Dergisi/Journal of Social Sciences ASSESSING THE CYPRIOT MEP’s PERFORMANCE: 2009-2011 Direnç KANOL __________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT The visibility of what the Members of the Parliaments do has serious consequences for accountability and democratic legitimacy. The Members of the European Parliament from various countries conduct their affairs without much visibility as a consequence of limited media focus on the European Parliament. Among these countries one can name the Republic of Cyprus. By relying on the number of reports, opinions, speeches, amendments, questions, motions for resolutions, written declarations, and attendance, this study aims to provide an assessment of Cypriot MEPs' performance so far. It also reports on the rate of activities motivated by national interest and looks at the voting behaviour to analyze loyalties. The paper includes a comparison between the Cypriot MEPs as well as a comparison of performance between the Cypriot MEPs and other MEPs. Keywords: Accountability, Cypriot MEPs, Democratic Deficit, MEP Performance, National Interest, MEP Loyalties. ÖZET Milletvekillerinin ne yaptıkları izlenebilirlik ve demokratik meşruluk gibi kavramlarla doğrudan ilgilidir. Sınırlı medya odağı olmasından dolayı çeşitli ülkelerdeki Avrupa Parlamentosu milletvekili üyeleri görevlerini yeterli görünürlük olmadan yürütmektedirler. Bu durum Kıbrıs Cumhuriyeti milletvekilleri içinde geçerlidir. Raporlar, görüşler, konuşmalar, düzeltmeler, sorular, değişiklik teklifleri, yazılı beyanlar ve katılım oranlarını hesaplayan bu çalışma, Kıbrıslı Avrupa Birliği milletvekillerinin performansını ölçmeyi amaçlamaktadır. Bunun yanında bu çalışmada milli çıkar odaklı aktivitelerin oranı ve milletvekillerinin bağlılıkları oy pusulasına bakarak değerlendirilmiştir. Bu makale Kıbrıslı milletvekillerinin performansını kendi aralarında karşılaştırmanın yanında diğer Avrupa ülkelerinden gelen milletvekilleri ile de karşılaştırmıştır.

Human Rights Issues and Debates During the 2009 EU Parliament Election Campaign: the Case of Cyprus
Human rights issues and debates during the 2009 EU parliament election campaign: The Case of Cyprus Nicos Trimikliniotis & Corina Demetriou PAPER FOR SYMFILIOSI FOR THE FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS AGENCY 1. Overview 1.1 Overall racism, xenophobia, related intolerance and other relevant human rights issues did not feature prominently in the Cypriot European Parliamentary elections campaign. Other issues dominated the agenda such the Cyprus problem, national governance and to a lesser degree some EU-related issues, which were again localized, often connected to the Cyprus problem. For instance the issue as to whether Cyprus should join „Partnership for Peace‟; or the question of which of the European political parties, which the national parties are affiliated to, has more influence in the European Parliament, thus allowing for better lobbying prospects when the European Parliament discusses the Cyprus problem or how to derive more benefits for Cyprus in general. The issues selected to attract Cypriot voters to the ballot box (borders and migration, budget, energy and standardisation) did not feature in the debates. Amidst these debates, human rights issues were marginalised; however, to the extent that there are human rights issues embedded in the Cyprus problem, human rights were reference points but only as a background issue and rather one-sided as they were essentially about Greek-Cypriot rights, not human rights for both communities, Greek-Cypriots and Turkish-Cypriots. A relevant issue relates to the accusations against the Parliamentary spokesperson of DISY1 Christos Pourgourides who also represents his party at the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe. Pourgourides was accused of being „unpatriotic‟ and „anti-Hellenic‟ for having co-signed a motion at the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe calling for the investigation of allegations made by Turks [or Muslims] living in the Greek islands of Rhodes and Kos about human rights violations by the Greek state.
