On the contrary, the majority doesn’t have the same power.


Alexandros,

do you agree with Tassos that majority doesn't have the same power? How 50/50 was that sharing, giving TCs more power than it was giving GC community?

Yes it was, but the version we have here is not the original english: It is a second translation, from English to Arabic and back to English. Ain't it obvious? :)

Sorry Insan, I don't understand your question any more than I understand Tassos's comment.

This version that you are convicted is the second translation was published on some GC dailies and some GC collumnists harshly critisized Tassos. However he didn't made any statements concerning this critical issue in a critical period. What do you think?

He said that Annan Plan gave TCs %50 of the power in Senate. Then he added that on the contrary GC didn't have the same power. So if TCs given %50 power, to whom the other %50 given if not GCs?

He claims that it wasn't given to GCs.

Viewpoint, I don't think you can say that others give excuses, when you excuse the whole invasion by calling it a "peace operation"!!


Do you mean me personally or Turkish Cypriots in general???

We have had a peaceful existence since 1974, dont know about you guys. So I would agree it brought us PEACE.

I agree the war was bad for both communities and there was great suffering for all Cypriots for which I am truely sorry, but dont forget who triggered off 1974 (a Greek Coup/Ennosis ring any bells) and at what stage Peace was established.
After the dust settled both communities were able to sleep at night without fearing Eoka or TMT and it has been that way for the past 30 years. Say what you will but I think thats called Peace.
