In the last two weeks, two reports have been published on the economic opportunities of a federal solution of the Cyprus problem.
(Please scroll down to Greek and Turkish translations)
World Bank economists forecast that the gross domestic product of a unified Cyprus would create €1.1 billion of investment opportunities in the first 2-3 years of a settlement, while in a separate report that was funded by the EU and published by the Peace Research Institute Oslo, three Cyprus-based economists said that a solution could generate 100,000 extra jobs that would not exist without a solution.
Both reports emphasised the positive impact of a solution on per-capita incomes. Dr Aldaz-Carroll-Carroll of the World Bank noted during his presentation that, without a solution, Greek Cypriot incomes would struggle to reach the much higher levels enjoyed in northern Europe. In the earlier presentation of their report, authors Mullen, Besim and Florentiades said that, without a solution, Turkish Cypriot incomes would reach only 63% of Greek Cypriot incomes after 20 years, but would reach 85% with a solution.
The EU-funded report is accompanied by short, easy to understand animations and infographics in three languages, which were produced by Annamations and One and a Half Studio. We will post these on Facebook and other social media channels but we have also arranged for UCN members to be able to access them directly. Please take advantage of this opportunity to download them and post them on your own social media pages so that we can spread the word.

Επανενωμενη Κυπρος: Επενδυσεις 1.1 δις. και 100,000 καινουργιες θεσεις εργασιας
Τις τελευταίες δύο βδομάδες, έχουν δημοσιευτεί δύο εκθέσεις σχετικά με τις οικονομικές ευκαιρίες μιας ομοσπονδιακής λύσης του Κυπριακού προβλήματος
Οι προβλέψεις των οικονομολόγων της Παγκόσμιας Τράπεζας αναφέρουν ότι το ακαθάριστο εγχώριο προϊόν μιας επανενωμένης Κύπρου, κατά τα πρώτα 2-3 χρόνια της λύσης, θα δημιουργήσει επενδυτικές ευκαιρίες ύψους 1,1 δις ευρώ. Σε μία άλλη ξεχωριστή έκθεση, που χρηματοδοτήθηκε από την ΕΕ και δημοσιεύτηκε από το Ινστιτούτο Έρευνας της Ειρήνης του 'Οσλο, τρεις οικονομολόγοι με έδρα την Κύπρο είπαν ότι η μία λύση θα μπορούσε να δημιουργήσει 100.000 επιπλέον θέσεις εργασίας οι οποίες δεν θα υπήρχαν χωρίς την λύση.
Και οι δύο εκθέσεις υπογράμμισαν τη θετική επίδραση της ομοσπονδιακής λύσης στα κατά κεφαλήν εισοδήματα. Ο Δρ. Aldaz-Carroll-Carroll της Παγκόσμιας Τράπεζας, κατά την διάρκεια της παρουσίασής της έκθεσης, σημείωσε ότι χωρίς λύση τα εισοδήματα των Ελληνοκυπρίων θα δυσκολευτούν να φθάσουν τα πολύ υψηλότερα επίπεδα που απολαμβάνουν στη βόρεια Ευρώπη. Οι συγγραφείς οικονομολόγοι Mullen, Besim και Φλωρεντιάδης στην προηγούμενη παρουσίαση της έκθεσής τους, ανέφεραν ότι τα τουρκοκυπριακά εισοδήματα χωρίς λύση θα φθάσουν μόλις το 63% των ελληνοκυπριακών εισοδημάτων μετά από 20 χρόνια, ενώ σε περίπτωση λύσης μπορούν να φτάσουν το 85%.
Η έκθεση, που χρηματοδοτείται από την ΕΕ, συνοδεύεται από σύντομες και εύκολα κατανοητές κινούμενες εικόνες και γραφικές αναπαραστάσεις δεδομένων σε τρεις γλώσσες, οι οποίες πραγματοποιήθηκαν από το ‘Annamations’ και το ‘One and Half Studio’. Θα τα δημοσιεύσουμε στο Facebook και σε άλλους δίαυλους κοινωνικής δικτύωσης, αλλά έχουμε επίσης φροντίσει όπως τα μέλη του UCN έχουν άμεση πρόσβαση σε αυτά. Εκμεταλλευτείτε την ευκαιρία για να τις κατεβάσετε και να τα κοινοποιήσετε στις δικές σας σελίδες κοινωνικών μέσων ώστε να ενημερωθεί το κοινό.

Birleşik Kıbrıs: 1,1 milyar euro yatırım ve 100.000 yeni istihdam
Geçtiğimiz haftalarda, Kıbrıs’ta federal bir çözümün ekonomik faydaları üzerine iki rapor yayınlandı.
Dünya Bankası ekonomistleri birleşik bir Kıbrıs’ın çözümü takiben ilk iki-üç yıl içerisinde 1.1 milyar Euro GSYH yaratacağı tahminlerini kamuoyu ile paylaşırken, AB’nin desteğiyle tarafından yayınlanan bir diğer raporda Kıbrıs’ta yaşayan üç ekonomist, çözümsüzlüğe kıyasla çözümün fazladan 10,000 yeni istihdam yaratacağını açıkladılar.
Her iki raporda da çözümün kişi başına düşen gelire olumlu vurgu yapacağı vurgulanırken, Dünya Bankası’ndan Dr.Aldaz-Carroll-Carroll çözümsüzlük şartlarında Kıbrıslı Rumların gelirlerinin Kuzey Avrupa’daki yüksek seviyeyi yakalamakta zorlanacağını ifade etti.AB-destekli diğer raporun sunulduğu toplantıda ise yazarlar Mullen, Besim ve Florentiades çözümsüzlük halinde 20 yılda Kıbrıslı Türklerin gelirlerinin ancak Kıbrıslı Rumların gelirlerinin %63’ünü yakalayacağını ama çözüm halinde bu farkın kapanarak karşılama oranının %85’e yükseleceğini açıkladılar.
AB-destekli rapor, Annamations and One and a Half Studio yapımı üç dilli kısa ve kolay anlaşılabilir animasyon ve infografiklerle desteklendi. Hem raporları hem de animasyonları Facebook ve diğer sosyal medya sayfalarımızdan paylaşacağız.
