A/HRC/41/15/Add.1 General issues 30. Cyprus accepts the following recommendations: 139.22, 139.95, 139.58, 139.61, 139.103, 139.104, 139.105, 139.115, 139.116. Recommendations related to the Cyprus question 31. Cyprus accepts the following recommendations: 139.49, 139.56, 139.91, 139.93, 139.96, 139.97, 139.151, 139.156, 139.160. 32. Cyprus partially accepts recommendation 139.98. 33. As in previous recommendations, Cyprus is willing to accept the part dealing with the 1954 Convention relating to the Status of Stateless Persons and the 2000 European Convention on Nationality. Cyprus is also committed to implementing the citizenship legislation in an efficient, non-discriminatory and transparent manner. However, there is no automaticity on this issue irrespective of the nationality of the applicant. 34. Cyprus takes note of the following recommendations: 139.23, 139.82, 139.99, 139.100, 139.101. 35. Cyprus takes note of recommendations 139.99, 139.100 and 139.101 concerning the procedures for granting nationality to children of mixed marriages between members of the Turkish Cypriot community and Turkish citizens who are illegally residing in the northern part of the territory of the Republic of Cyprus, which is under military occupation since 1974. These children can in no way be considered as stateless. 36. Cyprus takes note of recommendation 139.23. Since 1974, a systematic policy of altering the demographic, cultural and historic character has been taking place in the occupied part of the Republic of Cyprus, in direct contravention of all relevant UN Resolutions, including on the standardization of geographical names. As part of this policy of cultural and religious cleansing, 35,000 geographical names in the occupied territory of Cyprus have been arbitrarily and illegally changed. The national legislation in place aims to discourage and halt any attempts to further decimate the cultural heritage in the occupied areas of Cyprus. 37. Finally, Cyprus takes note of recommendation 139.82 as it is formulated. According to the Judgment of the European Court of Human Rights in the case of Cyprus v. Turkey (2001) (No. 25781/94), “the local administration” in the occupied part of Cyprus “was subordinated to and controlled by the respondent State not through the principle of legality and democratic rule but through military control and occupation…”. 5
