I think they might have helped the Greeks in that period as well but don't take this political forum as the norm utu....Just a means to an end...A means to an end :wink:

My father, a born and bred Cypriot, helped win that war against the Nazis, not to mention what my mother did from Greece too . . . it was never just the Brits on their own!

Only the Turks sided with the Nazis then, as now :roll:

Neutral is even worse Zan :roll: . . . . the Turks had only their vested interests and they wanted to side with everyone to protect themselves . . . selfish!

In other words . . . . if you are not with us you are against us.

There is no neutrality when there are atrocities being committed. Turkey was yellow then, and cares only for itself now.
Shameful behaviour :(

What a crock of shit you talk really....... :roll: :roll: Now let me see.......


On March 6, King Constantine rejected the Venizelos proposal, whereupon the premier resigned. In new elections he was returned to power. When Bulgaria mobilised on September 12 - - a month after the Greek elections - -Venizelos asked for an Allied expeditionary force of 150,000 men to be sent to Greece. But the king objected that the landing of these forces would be a breach of Greek neutrality unless Bulgaria attacked Serbia to which Greece had treaty obligations. However, the Allied force was already at sea and, despite a formal protest from Venizelos, British and French troops landed at Salonika on October 5, 1915. The same day Venizelos resigned once more after the king, ignoring a parliamentary vote of confidence in the prime minister, had told him he opposed his policy of fulfilling the Serbian treaty.

In a further attempt to gain Greek support for Serbia, Sir Edward Grey offered, on October 16, to transfer Cyprus to Greece. But eight days later the new Greek government of Alexander Zaimis, backed by the king, formally refused the offer. The British foreign secretary's initiative, agreed upon at an informal meeting of the 'War Committee', was criticised both in the cabinet and in the House of Commons for having been taken without proper cabinet consultation. But, in fact, as Roy Jenkins points out in his biography of Asquith, the Cyprus offer had been thoroughly discussed by the cabinet in January 1915. George V's secretary, Lord Stamfordham, had then written to Asquith:




Not only another treaty not honoured but the offer of CYprus wasn't enough :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: Gecmis olsun

Zan . . . . . . You are getting the two World Wars mixed up you trifle-brain. You sided with the Germans in WWI and supposedly neutral in WWII . . . but we were all discussing WWII if you care to look at the quotes.

My parents weren't even born during WWI.
