Again empty slogans xxNilxx.
In our schools they don't teach us anything against Turkish Cypriots. Against Turkey yes, and everything is true, but not against TCs. In fact they omit many of the crimes that TCs commited against us.
On the other hand in your shcools they brainwash you with hate propaganda against Greek Cypriots.
You know why is like that xxNilxx? Because the goverment of Republic of Cyprus has unification as an aim. It aims for a united Cyprus where all people live together in peace. therefore it is not in its interests to spread hate between the two communities.
On the other hand the aim of the occupation regime is partition. For this reason they are trying to present GCs as the "evils" in order to excuse why it is necessary to steal the lands of the "evil GCs" and Cypriots to be separated so the "innocent TCs" can be separated from the "evil GCs".and also why do u keep referring to ottoman empire? when the greeks first came to cyprus, i bet they did the exact same thing.
First of all if Turkey was any different towards us than what the Ottoman empire was then all that would be forgotten and forgiven and would be nothing more than history. Unfortunately Turkey continues today to act in the exact same way, invading our lands, keeping them under occupation and denying to the Cypriot people their freedom.
And about how Greeks first came to Cyprus you lost the bet. Greeks came to Cyprus many 1000s years ago, when Cyprus was mostly uninhabited and they created their own new cities on land that belonged to nobody. The Greeks came to Cyprus as traders and made Cyprus their home. The Turks came to Cyprus as invaders, with the aim to enslave and exploit the Cypriots.
Mr Broken Grammaphone, you say "On the other hand in your shcools they brainwash you with hate propaganda against Greek Cypriots. "
I will be obliged if you could furnish us with some proof of this
