Abstract

This paper aims at forecasting the developments concerning the settlement of the Cyprus issue after the Copenhagen EU summit. What we plan to do, more specifically, is to evaluate the extent to which one should share the Greek optimism concerning the improvement of the Greek-Turkish relations and the subsequent reduction of tension that will lead in its turn, to the end of the arms race currently burdening the economies of both sides.
