Abstract

On 10 May 2001 the European Court of Human Rights delivered the above Judgment which pronounces for the first time on the overall legal consequences of Turkey's invasion and continued military presence in Cyprus since 1974. The Judgment is important in many respects. It deals with a wide spectrum of systematic violations and decides certain significant legal questions in the sphere of international law and of human rights in particular pertaining to state responsibility, continuing violations, liability for missing persons, denial of access to homes and property, domestic remedies by de facto organs and administrative practice. The Judgment is also noteworthy for its various dissenting opinions.
