Quotas are a two way street. You use them then the other side will use them too no doubt. And then how do you deal with your "citiznes" who will lose their jobs in the south? Your assumption is that the desire to live and works "cross border" will be mostly on the part of the Greek Cypriot side. What if it is the other way round? COmes back to the old problem "now you got it what are you going to do with it?" that no one wants to discuss.
You are stuck in your fearful nightmare and do not think of the desires and wishes of people around you. You might end up with a state people do not want to live in and prefer to go south. That is the question some of us are asking because if that happens then we foresee a problem, namely you starting the old bullshit of a minority with special status in the south, it will be the same shitpile all over again.
What do border have to do with anything, people in the EU can still want to go live there but there are quotas, this is nothing unusual for a small country which can be swamped just like the TRNC.
You are right you to have the right to place quotas you can do whatever you wish in your country south of border I will have no right to interfere. Anyone who wishes to move south to the GC state will have to apply to the authorities like they do in any other country, they are free to do what ever they wish, its there choice, but dont oyu think many would have already done so living under isoaltion, just think of how the TRNC will progress without your hostage policies.
Nightmare?? people around me?? I am those people....I voice an average TCs viewpoint.
You forget or do not want to see we already have it and even now we are doing good, recognition as the thread suggests is over rated and you to are trying to exploit it and force GC demands down out throats.
