Do TCs want to live in a GC state as a minority?

How can we solve it? (keep it civilized)

Mate you do have a point there ...... My response is simple I don't know. What I do know is that for the past 34 years neither your community has been satisfied or has benefited from the status quo neither has mine and Turkey can no longer picky back you. A solution has to be found and partition is not it.

My other point is that like it or not Cyprus is no longer running itself. The EU has a part in it and rights of all human beings in European nations are safeguarded by the EU constitution.


humanist you are being very naive the Cypriots in the UK are ruled over by the Brits who are the majority, you went to the UK accepting that fact and abide by what the Brits tell you to do, the lucky thing there is that the Brits are fair and try not to discriminate, put the GCs in the same situation give them the power and we are exposed left to their mercy which we do not and will not trust to be fair and not discriminate, why is it so difficult to understand, thats why we ask for safeguards to ensure everything is known and the majority are not allowed to exploit the minorities.

Dont make me laugh the EU cannot safeguard anyone, they have no task force what would happen if the majority acted like the Israelis?The world just watches on as innocent people get killed, so the EU and UN are not very good guardians thats why we ask for Turkey who have proven they step in when necessary.

As a TC, I do not want to live in a GC state as a minority. There are two communities on the island and if we are going to establish a common state, it must be fifty-fifty.

There's nothing in it for the Greek Cypriots so they'd have to be very stupid to start feeding you on top of the partition! :roll:

Fifty-Fifty?

What a mentality is this? Should RoC then ask to have the same number of MPs in the EU as Germany?
RoC is a political equal in the EU in the sense that on matters that count they can use a veto, however this applies on a limited number of issues.
This shows that political equality does not mean numerical equality. So when one asks for political equality need to to have in mind that this can be achieved through other means which can be as effective as the 50-50 split that you demand without being provocatively unfair.

We did see what happened when TCs were minority.

Sorry but I don't live under GC control. That means GCs will have more rights than me. That means the country will be administrated how GCs want. My arse :). If the common parliament going to have 100 parlementers for example, 50 of them must be TC.

TRNC or Fifty-Fifty. You gonna accept this, or going to see TRNC flag on Five-Finger Mountains every day.
