You work out the rest.
I wonder when ENOSIS was sought?????
Enosis was always sought by the Cypriots Zan until 1960.
you are wrong my dear friend.
even now on the walls u can see EOKA,ENOS?S slogans.pls don't tell me that after 1960 we could not see. i can prove it for u.
You're wrong my friend. A few kids might have written some graffiti because of their football team ideals....what would be the point. We have ENosis with Greece now as we speak. We are part of the same European Union.
If Someone came up on tv and said i support enosis and am starting a political party he would get as much votes as Rauf running for president over here.
DT dear friend,
i saw those writings after 1974.still some writings are exsisting on the greek cypriots houses in the north cyprus.
thats why i told u that they were their after 1960.
i am not going to prove anything to u .but pls give correct information.we are still living in this planet.we have to tell truth by hiding something it will not help at all.
HAlil, if you read my first post regarding this i say the "Cypriots stopped seeking enosis after 1960. I don't consider a few hundred mercenary traitors in 74 that wanted enosis as representing the entire island of cyprus.
Your mindset of thinking that we here in cyprus seek enosis is backward and needs to get updated. Enosis is a past objective of the GC's. It is ridiculous to even think about anything like that now. We are a legitimate, internationally recognised government and proud member of the EUropean Union. Enosis and Taksim is solely reserved for 4-5 geriatric GC's and your entire administration, strategy and policies.
Is that the same as having your cake and eating it??? How can you still want something that you have already got??
I'm not getting you mate. I'm trying to explain to halil that wanting enosis is impossible. There already is a form of enosis within the EU. We are united to France, Denmark and Greece amongst others....what cake? Is it chocolate? You got me hungry now.
Your initial statement was "Enosis was always sought by the Cypriots Zan until 1960." What happened between 1960 and you joining the EU is what Halil is asking. You made it seem as if it stopped in 1960 when it clearly didn't. Lets not get into the man on the street and what those in power wanted. We all know they are two different things.
Again let me refer you to my choice of words of Cypriots...Makarios may have had his dream trodden on but he was way too ambitious to relinquish power to Greece now that he became president. SOemthings said were for the ears of Greece and nothing more I believe. Running a country however with a complicated constitutional setup as the 1960 constituion envisaged was difficult for a country of political rookies.
One thing that never gets discussed here was what where the problems that the govt encountered to force makarios to come in with the amendments? Why were taxes not collected and the state was coming to a standstill? WHy could municipalities not function anymore? At some point youa s TC's need to take a clear look back at this without any provoking or challenging from any GC's and ask yourselves how was the state to overcome these issues?
Enosis was stopped dead in 1960...Taksim on the other hand...well we live that every day now don;t we?
