    Turkey plans to complete a drinking-water pipeline to tackle water shortages in Turkish Cyprus by March 2014, Waterworks Minister Veysel Eroğlu has said.

    The underwater pipeline may even be extended to the Middle East, to Gaza in particular, he said, referring to a never-realized “Peace Water” project dating back to the second half of the 1980s, daily Akşam reported on March 23.

    Cypriots are Turks too.There are no immigrants there.Desperate Kurd trying to dig some pieces of history out of Cyprus now? And Turkey never occupied Cyprus.We just saved our people from complete destruction and EOKA terrorism.This Kurd got brainwashed too much by western version of history and politics.

    All good news..............

    The four-phase project kicked off with the groundbreaking of the Anamur Alaköprü Dam in the southern province of Mersin, which is directly across from Cyprus on the Mediterranean coast.

    The Geçitköy Dam groundbreaking ceremony, the second phase of the project at the other end of the pipeline in Kyrenia, will be held March 30, the minister said. The other two phases involve the construction of land facilities and the 80-kilometer pipeline. The total pipeline will measure 107 kilometers from one dam to the other.

    The pipeline will provide 75 million cubic meters of water per year to Turkish Cyprus, while the cost of the project will be 850 million Turkish Liras, the minister said.

    With this project Turkish Cyprus will not have a water shortage problem until 2060, he said.

    “We have plenty of water. If there is peace on the island, we can transfer enough water to the Greek side as well. Do not worry, we [will] transfer to Greek Cyprus,” he said.

    “We have other [water] projects. We do not want the Middle East, Gaza to stay without water,” he said.

    The idea of extending water pipelines to the water-poor Middle East was first floated in 1986 by then-Prime Minister Turgut Özal. Pre-feasibility studies envisaged water transportation from Turkey’s southern Seyhan and Ceyhan rivers to Arab countries.

    The idea was to build two water pipelines on land through Syria, Jordan, Saudi Arabia and Kuwait, even reaching the Gulf countries of Bahrain and Qatar.

    In another push to realize the Peace Water project, facilities were built in the southern province of Antalya in 1998 to sell water from the Manavgat River to Israel, Jordan and Lebanon. The project, however, was not activated due to a lack of demand.

    kemel lover you should know that the illegal settlers are the majority in Northern Cyprus

    In 2010, the International Crisis Group estimated that the total population of Northern Cyprus was 300,000, perhaps half of which were either born in Turkey or are children of such settlers.[74] One source claims that the population in the north has reached 500,000,[75] split between 50% Turkish Cypriots and 50% Turkish settlers or Cypriot-born children of such settlers.[76]

    Its Mustafa Kemal.Learn to write first.Those Cypriot Greeks didnt fall there from the sky neither Turks.Greeks and Turks were living together in the island before Greek hostility started.There is no such thing as an illegal Turkish settler because Cypriots are Turks too and the island was under Ottoman rule for centuries.So there is nothing illegal there.We just saved our own people from EOKA terrorism.Now go back to school.Speaking of being a settler.You are the immigrant yourself it seems.

    Maybe you mistake the private parts remark with your own kind since Kurdish fathers and Kurdish brothers rape their own daughters and sisters then they sell them as prost*tutes.Too bad the western europeans and americans that you play as the victims dont know your disgusting traditions and primitive way of life of Kurdish terrorists.

    Not having a history must be painfull for you.Your propaganda stories are fun to read.I will get surprised if I see something new from people like you one day.Even if Turks were Mongols,it would be better than being a rootless cave monkey Kurd.Mongols have a history unlike you.As for you,you are just a bunch of primitive backwards society that contributes nothing to the countries you live in except filth and betrayal.

    You met with civilization after Seljuks took complete control of Anatolia.Before that you were living on remote mountains and in caves.You migrated to todays South Eastern Turkey after Seljuks.If you are native go to Northern Iraq.Why do you live in Australia and you speak of being an immigrant.What a loser.

    Since there is no country such as Lithuania.It just exists because USSR wanted and it belongs to Poland just like Ukraine and Belarus,this Lithuanian immigrant kid from Sweden Litwin is jealous about the glorius history of Turks.He is posting his lame comments based on a few words which he learned,western fabrications and he hardly makes sense.He became brainwashed because of kissing too much hairy Kurdish a.s.Lithuanian Nazi must be thinking his delusions and junk are very accurate political and historic comments.But typical uneducated settler.Nothing surprising.You know why he immigrated to Sweden? Because Swedes are Nazis just like Lithuanians.
