The Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court (1998) defines "the transfer directly or indirectly by the Occupying power of parts of its own civilian population into the territory it occupies" as a War Crime indictable by the International Criminal Court. (Article 7, Crimes Against Humanity.)

Article 46 of the Hague Convention prohibits the confiscation of private property in occupied territory. The confiscation of land by the Turkish government for settlement construction is in violation of this article. (Laws and Customs of War on Land (Hague II); July 29, 1899)

Article 55 of the Hague Convention stipulates that "the occupying state shall be regarded only as administrator and *usufructuary of public buildings, real estate, forests, and agricultural estates belonging to the hostile State, and situated in the occupied country. It must safeguard the capital of these properties, and administer them in accordance with the rules of usufruct."

So? how will you get them to leave?


"Even when the norms are clear, even when Courts issue judgments, enforcement belongs in a different dimension. Without political will, the best norms and the best judgments remain dead letter. "

These illegal immigrants have been the problem and scourge of the north ever since they were shipped in by the RoT, taking large amounts of land, the better houses and better jobs - all to attract and entice them in. I suspect that our brothers and sisters of the north would have been much wealthier and happier without these foreign leaches sucking the money out of the northern community. You brought them in, you get rid of them. Getting them to leave is yours and the RoT's problem.

Don't expect the good people of the RoC to foot the bill either.

You are the only ones who can get rid of them by agreeing to a comprehensive solution of which their departure under agreed conditions will be effected.
