Accession negotiations with Cyprus were completed on 13 December at the European Council in Copenhagen. Cyprus is due to be accepted as a new Member State of the European Union on 1 May 2004. The Union has, however, made it perfectly clear that it would prefer a united Cyprus to join. On the question of unity, the European Union welcomes the commitment by both sides to continue negotiations, with a view to finding an overall solution to the Cyprus problem by the end of February 2003 on the basis of the proposals made by the Secretary-General of the United Nations. If these efforts prove successful, the Council will decide unanimously, on the basis of a Commission proposal, on the adjustments needed to Cyprus’s terms of accession to the European Union in order to accommodate the Turkish-Cypriot community. If no solution is found, the application of the
to northern Cyprus will be suspended pending a decision by the Council to the contrary based on a proposal submitted by the European Commission."@en1
