However, problems were not addressed, not only the problem of the large population of the country, causing headaches in Europe, but also the issues of conservation and development of human rights, Cyprus, the army, etc. are just some of those that stalling the process.

Already there is an effort to align with the acquis communautaire. The European Partners does not show, however, ready.
