The leaders of the divided island of Cyprus say they have made good progress at an informal round of talks held earlier today. Greek Cypriot President Dimitris Christofias and his Turkish Cypriot counterpart Mehmet Ali Talat will hold another round of informal talks later this month before starting formal peace negotiations. It was the third time the two men had met since Mr Christofias was elected to the presidency in February of this year. Talks between the two sides had been frozen while former Greek Cypriot President Tassos Papadopoulos was in power. Cyprus has been split since a 1974 Turkish invasion, which was triggered by a brief Greek Cypriot coup.

Undoubtedly, the deep divisions in Cyprus, overwhelmingly wrought by the Turkish invasion of the island in 1974, resultant ethnic cleansing of Greek Cypriots, missing persons, expropriated properties in the occupied north, illegal Anatolian settlers and the destruction of Greek secular and Orthodox cultural heritage, are likely to quickly dissipate with the appointment of Australia’s worst foreign affairs minister, Liberal Party member Alexander Downer, as the United Nations special Envoy. Greek and Turkish Cypriots are certain to unite in their hatred once they discover what an incompetent and blithering idiot he is. The former Australian Prime Minister Paul Keating once aptly called him the “idiot son of the aristocracy”.
