Abstract
This article analyses the Cyprus Question, externally and internally. The external dimension focuses principally on Cyprus' accession to the EU, and the part it may be playing in forcing potential reunification and federation of the island. The second question takes up the issue of the appropriateness of federation or confederation for Cyprus at all, and argues that a two-state outcome would be better and more realistic for both Greek and Turkish Cypriot communities. But ultimately, with the latest Kofi Annan UN Plan offering federation (with linked EU membership) now under intense negotiation, this package needs to be finally submitted in referenda to the Cypriot communities themselves for a definitive judgement.
