"Madam President, I have found this debate on Turkey very interesting. It is a great country, and undoubtedly impressive, but it must, however, make steps towards democracy, and one democratic step would be to bring the military occupation of Cyprus to an end.
One of our colleagues referred to the division in Nicosia yesterday. I once paid a visit there when I was the mayor of Oviedo, an ancient capital city of Europe, and I felt the same pain as with Berlin years ago. A foreign power cannot occupy the territory of a sovereign state. What I am saying in relation to Cyprus also applies to Gibraltar in my country, which is Spanish and should not be occupied, a fact that we Spanish will never forget."@en1
