The consequences and influences of separate referenda held in 2004, the reflections of it have been great importance for the case of Cyprus. Especially, after the membership of Cyprus, the case of Cyprus turned its face under the European Union policies. In currently, Cyprus is a divided country within European Union and the problem of Cyprus directly affects values and rules of European Union. This paper argues that despite the legal results of referenda; evaluate inherent rights of Turkish and Greek Cypriots’ and the conditions of TRNC under the European Union law. It’s also maintained, previous and today’s policies and regulations of European Union respecting the issue of rights of Turkish Cypriots in Northern part of Cyprus.
