1) Our Turkish Cypriot Vice Presidency post of the original ROC government of 1963 was forcefully abandoned due to Dr Fazil Kucuk's opposition of the ADDITIONAL 10 POINT CHANGES so vehemently demanded by the Greek Cypriots (Makarios) at the time. After 1974, those 10 additional changes were very swiftly included.
Hear this..... Well, to those TCs whom now voluntarily seek the GC Controlled ROC passports, you have not ONLY ACCEPTED THOSE 10 POINT CHANGES demanded by Makarios way back in 1963 that our people fought and died against between 1963-64, but, since then, have ALSO accepted at least 100 other additional Greek Cypriot changes to the original constitution (to the Benefit of the Greek Cypriots).
The new talks process advocated by Christofias based on an "Evolution" is certainly a popular strategy and now accepted by our TCs at home - Sometimes I wonder what was the point of giving up the Vice Presidency post in 1963 due to those additional 10 points so demanded by Makarios, when our people of to, so many years after, are now completely oblivious to this tragedy.
Denktas' Speech on those additional 10 Changes by Makarios:
Makarios’s proposed changes would have meant that the Turkish Vice-President would lose his right of veto and would be elected not by the Turkish Cypriots but by the parliamentary majority, i.e. the Greek Cypriots. These two articles, together with another nine similar ones, would have lost the Turkish Cypriots the rights which the Cypriot Constitution had guaranteed them until then.
