As you are no doubt aware, The European Parliament will on 10th February ( http://bit.ly/b03bsj ) debate the draft resolution prepared by MEP Ria Oomen-Ruijten as rapporteur for the Foreign Relations Committee regarding Turkey's EU accession process.
Cyprus needs all its friends to echo the sentiments contained in that resolution ( Read more at http://bit.ly/cGUd1O ) in order that Turkey's accession to the European Union can be facilitated.
A video playlist of items recorded in the last 2 years, to promote exactly such an outcome, is available online and can be embedded in other websites and forwarded to all FRIENDS OF CYPRUS - http://bit.ly/1FLuo3 (click the play button to play and also turn the sound on )
