Supporter of north Cyprus independence claims victory Ayla Jean Yackley and Simon Bahceli NICOSIA Sun Apr 18, 2010 3:15pm EDT Related Video Landmark vote in north Cyprus 11:35am EDT < 1 / 5 > View Full Size NICOSIA (Reuters) - Dervis Eroglu, a staunch backer of Turkish Cypriot independence, claimed victory in Sunday's presidential vote in northern Cyprus, which could slow efforts to reunify the island and set back Turkey's EU hopes. World Eroglu, who wants broad autonomy for Turkish Cypriots, said he would continue peace talks with Greek Cypriots and wanted a solution "all of us can live with." With 98 percent of votes counted, Eroglu had 50.37 percent to incumbent Mehmet Ali Talat's 42.84 percent. If Eroglu keeps his levels above 50 percent a runoff will not be required on April 25. Talat had led peace talks since 2008. "Talks will continue because I want peace more than those who say that I don't," Eroglu, who is also the prime minister of northern Cyprus, told supporters at a rally after preliminary results showed he had won. The Greek Cypriot side called Eroglu's victory a "negative development." "What is important now is to get to the fundamentals of this development, how we will handle matters, what our tactics will be, so that we are able to implement the aims of a solution," said Stefanos Stefanou, spokesman for Cyprus's internationally recognized government. Turkish Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan said Ankara wanted a solution to the Cyprus issue -- a main obstacle to his country's hopes of joining the European Union -- by the end of 2010 and would keep backing peace talks whoever won the election in the north of the island. "Turkish Cypriots must continue the talks which is something Eroglu also believes in. It is our aim to find a solution by the end of the year," he told Turkey's NTV broadcaster. Diplomats and analysts had said an Eroglu victory could slow the pace of U.N.-backed reunification talks with Greek Cypriots in the Mediterranean island, divided along ethnic lines since a Turkish invasion in 1974, triggered by a brief Greek-inspired coup. MORE INDEPENDENCE "Nobody is going to walk away from the table but this makes reunification a steep and uphill push," said Hugh Pope, Turkey/Cyprus director for the International Crisis Group. "It is a big challenge to Turkey. The EU should try to persuade Turkey it can still do this. Turkey and the Greek Cypriots need to find now a way to get around the table and find a solution that is acceptable to all. Everybody will have to think again and find a way forward." Talat and Cypriot President Demetris Christofias had agreed in principle that Cyprus should reunite as a sovereign state with broad autonomy for the two zones but with an effective central administration. The Greek Cypriots, who represent Cyprus in the European Union and do not recognize the breakaway enclave, have said they will stop Turkey joining the EU as long as the island remains divided. Eroglu has taken positions that are not acceptable to Greek Cypriots. He wants more independence for each community in any peace settlement and has also ruled out any Greek Cypriot return to land now held by Turks. The conflict not only hampers Turkey's bid to join the EU, but also complicates decision-making on defense issues between the EU and NATO, of which Turkey is a member. Parts of Turkey's EU talks are frozen because of Cyprus. Attempts to solve the conflict failed in 2004, just before the island joined the EU, when Turkish Cypriots accepted a U.N. peace blueprint but Greek Cypriots rejected it. Turkey still has some 30,000 troops in northern Cyprus.
