COMPENSATION FOR USED LAND

[Kifeas]

If this does not change forever, the legality will stay as "legality".

Therefore you do not accept that these properties belong to the GCs?

My point is clear enough.

Noone will force, you will accept it if you want an agreement.

No, is not clear at all!

You actually want to say an "agreement" according to your measures and standards!

Any solution will contain a compensation element for land used by the north, you hardly expect to get land back where someone has spent millions building a holiday complex, or a man has built his home and lived there for 30 years or has developed and sold homes, you cant just demolish all these developments just to return it to the pre 1974 owner. Reality is a harsh thing and hard cash will help heal those wounds, if fair prices are paid (and this is what we should ensure happens for all refugees who are unable to get their land back) then people can buy land elsewhere and move on. And please dont spin me that ancestral lands bullshit, ample compensation will ensure the majority of refugees are made happy.

Not only mine, all of TC with exceptions.

Listen, I am not saying nobody will return to his house. Of course, there will some returns, but if you say all of them should, we can never have an agreement.

TC will sacrify all of its rights at south as well of course.

Of course!
When your history in this country is limited, any reference to our ancestral lands sounds like “bullshit” to you.

I cannot criticise nor help you on that.
