You may have surrendered your future into the hands of GCs and are fine with living in a society where 80% of the population are Gcs and Greek is spoken all the time but I am not. I want my own state under a BBF solution with political equality...if this is not acceptable then partition is the only way out of this problem.
VP, when your Turkish ancestors stepped foot in Cyprus, some 400 years ago, didn’t they know that the overwhelming majority of the indigenous people of this country were the GCs? Didn’t they know that the GCs were the inhabitants of the whole of Cyprus for thousands of years already? If they knew this fact, why then did they choose to come here and start leaving among ourselves? You (your ancestors) came here as second comers (in a way as our “guests,”) and now you want to kick us out of a substantial part of our country and make it your own place, just because you no more like our culture and our language and the idea that we are the majority of the people in this country of ours?
VP, if you do trust us and if you do not like our language and our culture and if you do not like the fact that we were and still are the majority of the people of the whole of this country -thousands of years before your ancestors even discovered this place; then you should only blame your ancestors for coming here in the first place! Nevertheless, you can always depart from here to where your ancestors came from, because what you are asking is completely illegitimate and immoral; otherwise you live us with no option other than to patiently wait to do this by our selves, as soon as we get the right chance! Alternatively, if you -and all those little racist neo-ottoman pan-turanists thinking like you, wish to remain in this country; it is about time you all start adding lots of water in your wine glasses, and stop demanding the outrageous things you do, just because you wrongfully feel that you now have the upper hand!
