Claudia Roth will be visiting the North Cyprus

Postby halil » Tue Mar 11, 2008 9:13 am

The Co-Chairperson of the Greens Party at the European Parliament Claudia Roth will be visiting the Northern Cyprus.

Mrs Roth will arrive in the North Cyprus on the 17th of March for a series of contacts with TRNC officials.

Speaking to the AB-Haber news agency, Claudia Roth said she wanted to have on the spot inspections in North Cyprus to determine the affects of the isolation on the Turkish Cypriot People.

Mrs Roth expressed the view that the election of a new leader in South Cyprus will make it possible to build bridges between the two sides and to lift the international isolation on the Turkish Cypriot People.

But, she added that the negotiations process will not be easy.

Mrs Roth will arrive in the TRNC through the Ercan Airport for a four day visit.

Commenting on the visit, Prime Minister Soyer told the AB-Haber news agency that Germany’s stable policies and close interest to the Turkish Cypriot People at a time when the international isolation continues, is motivating the Turkish Cypriot People towards a solution in Cyprus.

No, I haven't. My comments are that she isn't rubbing the Turkish Cypriots noses in their isolation by refusing to arrive via Ercan. A solution is needed one way or the other - the TRNC exists - fact. Unrecognised by most - fact. What is needed is a just and fair solution, and everyone should be happy that the EU is finally doing something posotive towards reconciliation.

Fact- Ercan is an illegal port of entry and the Govt of Cyprus has not approved it as such. I doubt she will come via that airport
Fact- The "trnc" does not exist. What does exist is some sort of administration the TC's have set up for themselves in a way to carry out Turkeys instructions in a more official manner.
Fact- Unrecognised by ALL barring turkey...(not by most)
Question- Will they show her the plans for the 2 new Hotel/Casino's which will destroy the natural parks of Karpasia since she is heading up the Green party?

GreekForumer,

Have you ever wondered how things would have turned out if the Greeks/GC's had suceeded in exterminating every single TC on Cyprus when they had the chance ?

It must be tough living with such failure :?

You'd better clean up, she's coming to tell you to respect the environment that you stole, until it can be returned to the rightful owners.....

This is what I wrote in another thread.

How can you say in other threads there is "no evidence" that Turks Genocided Armenians despite the fact that Turks murdered Armenians in the 100s of thousands in 1894-96 and 10s of thousands in 1909. In 1915 Turks forced Armenian women and children and elderly to march across Anatolia without sufficient transport or food or water or shelter. Why did some of these convoys go in circles ? Why did some of these convoys bypass townships where they could get life giving sustenance ? And then Turkish leaders claim they died by accident ? And those Armenian women and children who were "relocated" to the bottom of the Black Sea? I suppose that is not evidence for Genocide but "massacres carried out by private citizens". Even the Germans, your WW1 buddies (and witnesses to the crimes), say a Genocide occurred. Did you read about the Genocide resolution in the USA ? Even those politicians that voted AGAINST the resolution, CONCEDED a Genocide occurred but they did not want to upset the Turkish Ally.


Having said that,
What is your evidence GCs has "Genocidal agendas" ?
Are you saying the GC leftists had a Genocidal agenda ?
Or was it just the coupists that had a "Genocidal agenda" ?
Coupists are a minority, right ? That's why they have to do coups, right ?

Maybe the coupists were only interested in declaring and securing Enosis. Maybe the coupists would have to kill the TC leadership to pacify the ordinary TCs. (As Turkey did to the GCs in 1822 or the Kurds in 1920s). Maybe the coupists would ban Turkish language, schools, newspapers, etc and henceforth call TCs "Mountain Greeks". Maybe they would have told the TCs that if they did not want to become citizens of Greece they they could pack their bags and leave. (As Turkey did to the Alexandrettans in 1939). Maybe they could have introduced RACIST and DESTRUCTIVE laws on TCs, like an OUTRAGEOUS wealth tax intended to IMPOVERISH and (most importantly!) CRIMINALISE the TC tax payer.(Like Turkey did to Greeks during WW2). Perhaps turn TC areas into OPEN PRISONS. This list can go on. There are many ways to get rid of TCs. GCs can look to Turkey for inspiration.

Anyway,
What is your evidence GCs wanted to rid Cyprus of ALL TCs ?
What is your evidence GCs would get rid of them by Genocide ?

What is your evidence, Gabira ?
