This PhD project has not just been an academic project but a life experience. Apart from expanding my knowledge about the world, it has challenged my strength and faith in myself but crowned me a warrior by the end of it. The first person that I would like to thank is my supervisor Prof. Franklyn Lisk as I am sure I would not have managed to reach the completion of this project without his patience, support and belief in me. I thank him for being an inspiring supervisor and a perfect example of an academician with his immense knowledge, skilful research and deep respect for his students. The second person is my second supervisor Prof. Shaun Breslin. I appreciate him taking me on board and supporting me despite the challenges I had to face. Your practical approach to the PhD process empowered me and I am grateful for that. Being Greek and knowing the challenges that someone can face when knocking on political doors for access to information I would like to extend my gratitude to the director and employees of the library department of the Greek Parliament. They not only helped me practically with my archival research but also showed a genuine interest in my thesis and offered insightful contribution given their knowledge of the parliamentary developments in Greece. Their professionalism and high standard of service are an example to be followed by the rest of the public sector in Greece. My dear grandmother whom I lost during the final year of my PhD, was the source of inspiration for this project. She was a sharp, clever and knowledgeable woman, but having been born in 1929 and coming from a very wealthy aristocratic family she was only given the chance to study until secondary school, was denied further education and was married off to my grandfather, a kind and loving man that I loved dearly, who was chosen by her family. All her life she remained thirsty for knowledge, yearning for a place in society other than a mother and a wife.

    UNISCI Discussion Papers, Nº 23 (May / Mayo 2010) ISSN 1696-2206 TURKISH-GREEK RELATIONS AND THE CYPRUS QUESTION: QUO VADIS? 1 Fuat Aksu 2 Yildiz Technical University Abstract: It can be claimed that the most disruptive factor in the intransigent relations between Turkey and Greece is the absence of a platform for dialogue and negotiation where constructive relations might be developed. The efforts made towards dialogue and negotiation, initiated from time to time, were inadequate given the absence of trust and security between the two countries. The process of moderate dialogue and confidence building measures initiated after the crisis of the 1990s created the basis for the bilateral détente in 1999. During this period, once the EU conferred candidate status on Turkey, the questions between Turkey and Greece were moved from the traditional sphere to the European platform. In other words, relations and disputes were “Europeanized”. In the post-1999 period, bilateral relations were developed under the axis of conditionality and Europeanization. Even though this situation created an appropriate basis for the development of dialogue and cooperation, it was not able to mark an improvement in solving the fundamental questions. In particular, the acceptance of the Greek Cypriots into the European Union despite their rejection of the Annan Plan altered the balance against Turkish Cypriots and Turkey, and thus Turkish criticism of the European Union increased. The détente process reinforced the opinion that it was possible to live with the over-securitized problems of the past and increase the level of tolerance in bilateral realtions. However, tense relations which the “European anchor” can prevent at present might take shape in the foreseeable future, if the European Union cannot provide full membership to Turkey.
