...please read my manifesto.
the most "greeks and turks" can expect is their representation as Persons through a seperate level of governance (National Assemblies) where as majorities they will have the responsibility of providing for the special needs of minorities amongst them. Cyprus, as a State, is neither "Greek" or "Turkish". We expect as a people, it to defend our Individual Rights, as well as acting for our betterment in a world which demands efficiency, equality, and our representation as a people without ethnic discrimination. For us to compete with Global partners there is no room in our external affairs for the isolation that exists at present between us, yet there is no reason against the Principal of Bicommunality to be defined in a manner where as peoples we cannnot sustain identities that are distinctive as Communities while we maintain a single aim regarding our Human condition.
As for Bizonal, my view is far more valuable to both communities in maintaining a diversity within their own respective cultures while it assures our security, by ending the border which is so easily defended as a military frontier. Enclaves allow for our Free Association, our Mobility and our Expression while they provide to us a greater choice in terms of the services available for our enjoyment, as this island's dwellers, as well as Turcophones and Grecophones.
