 Insight Turkey
In this, the power of information and global mobility will be more decisive than the possession of military force, writes Kesici.
Solving Greek-Turkish problems is one of the three fundamental pillars of European security, and security imperatives in the Eastern Mediterranean, from a transatlantic perspective, are, Sitilides argues, in turn shaped by three major considerations: Greek-Turkish mutual interests; opportunities advance those interests; and the prospects for working ; together to achieve these objectives.
The optimism following the Oslo Accords that a "new Middle East" was in the offing seems badly misplaced as the region has continued to be a source of crisis and tension.

 Asia Times - Asia's most trusted news source for the Middle East
Should Cyprus evolve into an island of stability in the region, it could prove to be the ideal position from which to monitor the shifting tectonic plates of international diplomacy.
If Cyprus is to serve as an example to underperforming Arab countries, then its entry - or that of its Greek Cypriot south - into the European Union on May 1 could be the event that kick-starts the process.
In addition, it would allow easier supervision of regional sea-routes and complement the US presence in Djibouti that guards the southern access point to the Suez Canal, by establishing a presence near in the canal's northern exit.

In the 30 years since the Turks seized the island's northern third, no other issue has provoked as many crises between NATO members Greece and Turkey.
"It is a military trip-wire in a region that is vital to US interests with the war on terror," said John Sitilides, who heads the Western Policy Center in Washington, which specializes in southeastern Europe.
US officials and analysts also point out that a settlement would further anchor Turkey -- NATO's only Muslim state -- to the West at a crucial time, as the US-led coalition attempts to rebuild Iraq.

The incentives tied to a Turkish EU bid are obvious for Cyprus, said John Sitilides, head of the Southeast Europe project at the Woodrow Wilson Center.
But EU membership, although providing an established framework for diplomatic relations, is no guarantee to solve a domestic conflict: In the United Kingdom, Ireland remains divided, he said.
