塞浦路斯加入欧盟的原因

On the Reasons of Cyprus' s Participation in European Union

西方文化的强烈归属感、国际政治格局剧变的积极应对、全球化时代经济发展的需要、国家安全的战略选择以及实现国家统一,是塞浦路斯加入欧盟的主要动因;而希腊基于与塞浦路斯希腊族人同宗同源情结以及希腊的国家安全战略考虑,不惜使用欧盟成员国的否决权力推塞浦路斯入盟进程;欧盟的"催化作用"理念最终实现了塞浦路斯加入欧盟的夙愿;但塞浦路斯国家状态的特殊性和加入欧盟的特殊目的以及入盟进程的特殊性,使欧盟面临着解决民族冲突和国家分裂问题的新挑战。

Cyprus＇ s participation in European Union was mainly motivated by a strong sense of belonging to western culture,an active reaction to radical change of international political situation,need of economic development in the era of globalization,strategic choice of state security,and realization of the national unification. On the contrary,Greece as a member of European Union ventured to use the veto to delay the course of Cyprus＇ s participation in European Union because of its complex for Cyprian Greeks of the same family and origin. However,with its conception of ＂catalysation＂,European Union finally realized its intention of Cyprus＇ s participation in it. But the peculiarity of Cyprus＇ s state situation,its special purpose of joining European Union and peculiarity of participating in the union all made European Union have to face a new challenge of solving national conflicts and state split.
