I'm not sure if it was Paphitis or even GR, but one of you mentioned, in a response to one of my postings about recognition of the HSBC Bank in Northern Cyprus, as being under licence by Turkey.
What I want to say is, are you happy with that? And, here's the evidence GR is so desperate for...
Since the Annan Plan, and its rejection by the GC camp, Northern Cyprus has seen a huge amount of internationally based companies move their under Turkish Licence agreements. Right?
Well, and here's the connection to the Subject of this posting, keep up with the isolation of Northern Cyprus, keep saying know to a BBF plan based on a Loose Federal Government and Two States and you will one day see the following made official:
Republic of Turkey and Northern Cyprus
You can argue and kid yourselves as much as you like, you can prevent the recognition of the TRNC through your tight connections with Russia, but you do not have "Control" over the Territory of Northern Cyprus. Even the EU have agreed to that, regardless of the recognition of the GC ROC as entering full membership as the entire island, its "CONTROL" Stops at the "Cease Fire" line. You can promote the so called "Occupation" as much as you like, but practically, there's nothing that can be done as you lost your credibility and proved dishonest in first accepting the 2004 UN plan when you Rejected it in April 2004 with a resounding "OXI".
That was our meal-ticket, and when you say "OXI" again this time, Northern Cyprus, understanding that it will be difficult to convince the Permanent members of the UN Security council to go against the infamous Russia-Greek relationship, with have no choice but to "At least" remove the isolation on Northern Cyprus - as similar in some was to the non-isolation of Taiwan.
At this point, you will see, as what is now agreed by FIFA for only friendly matches, the promotion of "Northern Cyprus", but under the umbrella of Turkey.
As I've said in my previous postings, say no to a BBF plan and you will be flushed from all the cards you have in your hands at this moment in time -AND, GC Leader Christofias Knows it.
Evidence:
1) HSBC in Northern Cyprus operates under Turkish Licence.
2) You can fly to Northern Cyprus ERCAN but only via Turkey
3 And, You can only post letters as MERSIN 10, Turkey.
The Choice is yours!
Of course, people like Get Real feel very much threatened, which explains his desperate postings to discredit all I say, because he actually lives in GC Controlled Cyprus and can not visit the North without presenting his GC ROC passport. As with myself, I live in London and do not live under any of the government rules of either side, making me love Turkey and Northern Cyprus "from the Surface".
Thanks and regards.....Come GCs I'm looking forward to your angry replies.
