Međutim, pošto Christofiasova pozicija u zemlji nije baš solidna -- njegova vlada je ljetos skoro pala nakon eksplozije u jednoj mornaričkoj bazi i 12 poginulih lica -- pitanje je da li je on u poziciji da može praviti dogovor.
But with Christofias's domestic position anything but solid -- his government almost fell this summer after an explosion at a naval base resulted in the loss of 12 lives -- it's questionable whether he is in the position to do a deal.
