Greece obligation to recognize the minority came from the Lausange Treaty,which was Greece's ''save face'' to ethnically cleanse Macedonia and Thrace with the Greek population that came from Turkey(Lausange Treaty 1923) and Bulgaria(Neuilly Treaty1920).
With the influx of Greeks prosfiges in Macedonia and Thrace and the rest of Greece,Greece managed to change the demographics of Macedonia in favour of the Greek element.That helped Greece stabilize its dominance over Macedonia,that was under serious threat by the Slavophones after the Bucharest Treaty in 1913(the treaty that gave Macedonia to Greece)...The KKE party in Greece gained support from the Slavophone population and Greece was seriously threatened.The Slavophones had one goal!To dismember Greece and to carve out a new state called Macedonia in Greece's current borders...for 10 years the situation was shaky!!!! After the populations excahnges with Turkey and Bulgaria Greece changed the demographics and pushed the Slavic element out of Greece.For the coming years those who managed to survive in Greece started supporting KKE and then the Americans as always didnt want Greece to be under the Communism...So the Civil war was an excellent excuse to elliminate any non-Greek element such as the Slavophones and the Tsam Albanians from Greece...
You see Alexis,maybe you wanna chech your history again...Greece has been the Hitler of Balkans!!!!!!!!!Even Serbia didnt go to those extremes....
Because of the Civil War we still have Thessaloniki and Macedonia in our borders.If the commies would have won,i doubt it that Macedonia would be a part of Greece.Bulgaria would have annexed it in no time....
Do your homework mate.Greece stinks when it comes to minorities issues and human rights!!!!!!!
Please try to stick to the subject you yourself brought forward. Why did you not comment on what I wrote? Do the Turks of Greece lead a better life than the Turks of Turkey or not? Is the Turkish minority increasing in numbers while the Greek minority of Istanbul is long EXTERMINATED by Turkey or not? Is Greece the only country of SE Europe that hosts thousands of immigrants or not?
We can discuss the Balkan wars in another thread, you are more than welcome to open one if you want.
That comment of yours about Greece being the Hitler of the Balkans was quite funny, considering that it was only Greece and Yugoslavia that opposed the axis during WWII in the region, unlike Turkey, Bulgaria and Albania who all saw a chance of grabbing some land from Greece...
Also, please don't try to "teach" me history by posting irrelevant stuff that you read somewhere just to show you know something... If you had any true knowledge of history you would be able to debate on the same subject rather than switch from the minorities of Greece to the balcan wars and Macedonia only to show that you are "well read"
Come on Alexis give me a break mate.First you ridiculed your self saying that i am not Greek,which surely is only a figment of your imagination and secondly you believe that i am trying to teach you something...
I am describing Greece's policy on ethnic cleansing and Imperialism.Greece wants land,land,land.Greece's policy on Cyprus is a true depiction of how Hellenism is detrimental to Cyprus.The issues are interlinked since i provided a link between Greece's current policies on the Balkans and her Imperialism which off course extends to Cyprus.
Regarding the Axis we know that,even my 2 year old son knows that as well....We opposed the Germans,Bulgarians,Italians and Albanians bsc we didnt wanna loose land...not bsc we are were not a fascist a xenophobic country.....
What i said is the Greece is a Hitler when it comes to humans rights and minorities.That is were Greece is a true Hitler.Greece only formed a coallition with Serbia in the Balkan wars to annex Macedonia.EVERYONE KNOWS THAT.That is a true sign of collonialism and Imperialism since the Greek population in Macedonia prior 1913 was merely a minority....
Regarding your comment on about ''well-read'' i ll take that as a compliment,since you obviously sink in the Greek propaganda that the modern Greek state propagates.Xipna file mou,giati i Ellada ehei ginei i pio anipofori kai xenofoviki xwra stin Eurwpi.Enough is enough!!!!!!!!
