Turkey Fails to Resolve Greek Cypriot Property Issue at the Council of Europe
December 4, 2025
Turkey was unable to resolve the issue of Greek Cypriot properties in a recent vote at the Council of Europe. The proposal to end the supervision did not receive enough votes. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Cyprus expressed satisfaction with the decision that keeps the supervision open. Cyprus continues to assert that the illegal exploitation of properties is increasing and violates the decisions of the European Court. This development reaffirms Turkey's non-compliance with its obligations.
