Joe Biden

In that fateful month of July 1974, a coup by radical Greek Cypriots, instigated by the rightist Junta in Athens, threatened the Turkish minority in Cyprus. The plotters sought to unite Cyprus with Greece. Turkey, a guarantor of the treaty establishing Cypriot independence, sent forces, with two salutary results: The coup on Cyprus failed, and the dictatorship in Athens collapsed. Had Turkey withdrawn at that point, the world could hardly have complained. A few weeks later, however, in the midst of peace talks in Geneva, Turkey launched a second invasion, 40,000 troops proceeded to carve the nation in two.

The invasion was as vicious as it was rapid. Hundreds were killed. Nearly 200,000 Greek Cypriots -- 30 percent of the population -- fled their homes in northern Cyprus and resettled in the South. To this day, over 1,500 people -- including 5 Americans -- remain unaccounted for.

Alert U.S. diplomacy might have averted tragedy. In the 1960's, warnings by President Johnson on two occasions had helped prevent Turkish intervention. But a Nixon White House distracted by Watergate ignored predictions of the coup on Cyprus, and stood by while Turkey launched its invasions.

Turkey's illegal actions were only briefly punished. The United Nations demanded Turkey's immediate withdrawal but enforced no sanctions. A partial U.S. arms embargo imposed by Congress lasted just 4 years.

Meanwhile, the occupation of northern Cyprus was buttressed by the immigration of mainland Turks who were encouraged to settle in Cyprus by Ankara. In 1983, Turkish Cypriots declared secession by establishing the "Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus" -- recognized only by Turkey. The U.N. Security Council again spoke forcefully, declaring the act legally invalid but it failed to act further.

For the past two decades, the illegal division of Cyprus has continued -- a stark reminder of the failure of the international community to enforce its will. U.N. peacekeepers monitor a Cypriot dividing line. Beyond it, Turkey occupies nearly 40 percent of Cyprus in defiance of the United Nations charter and the Helsinki final act.

Numerous efforts have been made by U.S. and U.N. diplomats to resolve the crisis. Unfortunately, little tangible progress has resulted. To be sure, neither community on Cyprus is blameless. There have been moments over the past two decades where the Greek Cypriots have not been forthcoming in negotiations. But it cannot be disputed that most of the blame for the failure to resolve the Cyprus question lies with the Turkish Cypriots, and their patron in Ankara, the Government of Turkey.

Over the course of the last year, for example, the U.N. Secretary- General attempted to construct a series of confidence-building measures -- modest but important steps designed to pave the way for comprehensive negotiations. After months of painstaking negotiations, the effort collapsed in May. The Secretary-General of the United Nations, Boutros Boutros Ghali, stated clearly that the Turkish Cypriots had caused the breakdown in the talks. With unequivocal language rarely employed by U.N. Diplomats, the Secretary-General reported that "at present, the Security Council finds itself faced with an already familiar scenario: the absence of agreement due essentially to a lack of political will on the Turkish Cypriot side." The Secretary General continued:

The continued stalemate of the Cyprus question cannot be attributed only to Turkish Cypriot obstinance. The continued occupation of the island, and the economic support provided by Turkey, sustains the illegal regime in northern Cyprus, and thus is critical to the continuation of the status quo. Turkish forces, numbering approximately 30,000-35,000, occupy the island, despite United Nations Security Council and General Assembly resolutions demanding their withdrawal. Moreover, Ankara provides economic assistance that props up the Turkish Cypriot community. The Central Intelligence Agency reports in its "World Factbook" for 1993 that "Turkey normally underwrites a substantial portion of the Turkish Cypriot Economy." In late 1992, for example, Turkey provided a $100 million loan for economic development projects in the Turkish Cypriot area.

Given these facts, it should be obvious that United States diplomatic pressure should be focused on Ankara, the recipient of significant American economic and military assistance. Unfortunately, every administrator, Democratic and Republican, has resisted such an approach against Turkey, a member of the NATO Alliance which sits at a geostrategic corner of Europe critical to American interests.

To be sure, Turkey has played an important role in recent military operations in the region. During the Gulf War, critical air strikes were conducted from Turkish bases. Similarly, Operation Provide Comfort -- the effort to protect the Kurdish population in northern Iraq from Saddam's legions -- depends on the continued support of Turkey.

But Turkey's support of these operations does not absolve Ankara of responsibility to uphold the rule of law on Cyprus.

This week, the Clinton administration achieved a historic breakthrough in facilitating an end to the state of war between Israel and Jordan. The administration has also played a critical role in the accords between Israel and the Palestine Liberation Organization. A key element in the Middle East peace process has been high-level American diplomacy, including personal intervention by the President and the Secretary of State. Justice demands that the administration also turn to the Cyprus issue with equal vigor by pressing forcefully for Turkish withdrawal from Cyprus.

In the coming days, the United Nations Security Council is expected to call on the parties in Cyprus to undertake a new effort to accept confidence building measures, and press forward with negotiations on an overall resolution of the conflict. This presents an opportunity for the Clinton administration to accelerate its own efforts on Cyprus. United States policy should include the following elements:

First and foremost Turkey must understand that its occupation of Cyprus cannot continue. The United States and the other permanent members of the Security Council should make this clear in the strongest terms possible. Turkey must also use its influence with the Turkish Cypriot leader, Mr. Denktash, to come to terms.

Second, the President should appoint a special envoy on Cyprus, similar to the high-level Ambassador we now have on Haiti. Although for many years the United States has had a special Cyprus coordinator, in practice the incumbent has been a career foreign service officer, lacking the prestige and profile of an appointee with direct access to the President and the Secretary of State.

Third, to minimize Turkish Cypriot fears about a Turkish troop withdrawal, the United Nations should be prepared to expand its peacekeeping force on the island in the event of a settlement. Consideration should also be given to using forces from the permanent members of the U.N. Security Council.

Fourth and finally, the two Cypriot communities must understand that their interests will be served by a settlement. Toward that end, the United States and the European Union should pledge that a reunited Cyprus will be afforded full integration in Western economic and security institutions.
