Cut the rubbish Bananiot! Cut it, for only an extremist would distort what was so clearly seen by everyone on TV, to have been a deliberate move by the Turkish military to provoke the GC side! Everybody saw that what you say was not the case! The "policemen" did not just move 5 meters into the buffer zone, to "escort" someone with a "provocative banner!" Thy came well into the middle of the distance, and stood there for almost 1 hour, simply gazing indifferently towards the direction of the south, for the sole purpose of provoking the GC reaction!
Such childish behaviour even at government level is just unbelievable. So, they were 5 meters in the buffer zone and looking towards the south. Whats the big deal? I cant believe people can be so petty.
The civilised world is laughing at you lot
No man, only the forum is laughing, with your stupidity! Where did you read "5 meters?" The middle of the distance, that I referred to, is 40 meters!
Wow, amazing, a whole 40 meters ha? My, my this calls for a crisis meeting of the highest order. Bloody TCs how dare they wonder 40 meters into the buffer zone. They should be shot
With petty attitude like you and your government you are scoring own goals and playing into the hands of your enemy, the TC. I hope we don't become neighbours one day, bloody hell what if my kids kick their ball into your garden by accident or something similar? You will probably stab me and my kids. Frightening.
United, you do not know the background of what happened in Ledra street, that is why you cannot judge the GC stance! It has nothing to do with the policemen looking towards the south, nor with the fact itself that they stepped into the buffer zone! It has to do with the fact that Talat specifically agreed that they will not be doing so! Unfortunately, the attitude of some crooks from the GC community, do not help you understand it either, and I mean Bananiot & CIA.
In short, the Turkish military claims that the buffer zone, up to the middle of the way until Kikkos street, is not part of the buffer zone but instead part of what they regard as a "trnc territory," contrary with the 1974 ceasefire line on the UN maps, which shows that it is part of the buffer zone. One of the terms of the GC side, for the opening of the Ledra street, was that the Turkish side accepts the UN maps & position; and stops claiming -contrary to the 1974 status quo, that it has the "right" to control the buffer zone up to the Kikkos street (middle of distance now, between the two check points.) Talat accepted this term -contrary to the Turkish military position; namely that the sole responsible authority in the entire buffer zone -i.e. the whole distance between the two posts, will be the UN forces. The Turkish military, in an attempt to spoil Talat and Christofias agreement, had ordered the TC "police" to continue entering the buffer zone, in order to demonstrate their so called "sovereignty" over that part of the it! The incident that caused the closing of the buffer zone on the evening of the 3rd of April, was not the first one during the day, but the 3rd one since the morning of the day, that is why the inevitable reaction of the GC side to order the closing of the street.
