Who supports political equality at community basis and who does not and why?
As far as i know Akel and Hristofyas support it but they want to make sure of that it won't be abused for any purpose by any parties... Right?
"In short, it is incorrect to speak of ‘two separate peoples’ or ‘a single people’ in Cyprus. For it is neither sufficient to invoke ethnic or similar differences to justify the existence of a separate people, nor necessarily the fact of shared geographical space to justify the existence of a single people. In the law of nations, the notion of a people is above all political. A people is a community that dwells within the same state, is connected by ties of citizenship to that state, has a legislative capacity and consists of participating citizens who share a common public space. In Cyprus there currently does not exist such a political order. Thus it appears to be more meaningful to strive for the creation of a federal Cyprus state, to unite the ethnic communities under the umbrella of the same state, to grant them combined legislative capacity and to enable them to share a common public space than to prolong the ‘single or double’ squabble. Such a development may lead to the future emergence of a Cypriot people, as was the case in Switzerland, America, Belgium, India and other countries.
By searching in Cyprus’ past, we will find neither a ‘Cypriot people’ nor ‘two peoples’. We thus need to turn our faces towards the future."
