Description

This monograph, in its first section, aims to present the proposals submitted by the British Government within the framework of its foreign policy prior to granting independence to the Republic of Cyprus in 1959. It begins with a brief overview of some key issues arising from the British occupation of the island (1878-1959) and the efforts of the Greek Cypriots for independence before the United Nations' institutional bodies. It then proceeds to examine the substance of the ideas included in the constitutional plans for Cyprus, as developed during the negotiations. Next, it provides an analysis of the structure and specific features of the current Cypriot Constitution and concludes that, despite its disadvantages, this political Constitution, with some fundamental modifications, could serve as a basis for a sustainable resolution of the ongoing Cyprus Issue.

The second section aims to explore whether a Federal Constitution, initially agreed upon between the Republic of Cyprus and the Turkish Cypriot community, can serve as a foundation for a fair and sustainable settlement of the Cyprus problem. Specifically, whether this form of governance can properly safeguard Human Rights in Cyprus. After referencing highly significant statements made by Turkish politicians revealing Turkey’s true intentions regarding the island, and developing the concept of federation, at least five or six main arguments are used to demonstrate that, in the author's opinion, the federation system cannot be an appropriate framework for resolving the aforementioned issue.

The third section contains a recording made for the Oxford Colonial Records Project at Oxford on April 23, 1971. It is a recording of a conversation with Lord Karaden, who held colonial government positions and later became an official representative and subsequently a ministerial representative at the United Nations. The interviewer is W.P. Kirkman, who was a journalist for Africa and the Commonwealth for The Times and is now Secretary of the University of Cambridge's Education Council. During the interview, Sir Hugh Fult provides valuable insights into colonial history, the role of individuals in shaping British foreign policy, and their relations with these diplomats. He offers a useful perspective on the constitutional-political practice of ministerial responsibility and analyzes in depth the Cyprus issue.
