No my deluded GC neighbour its time for a reality check the labels and legality high horse you ride will not take you any further than the current status quo you admantly continue to support today. For it is your mindeset and lack of understanding that will guarantee you will never see Lapta in a united Cyprus in your life time.
Reality check questions..
1) Is the island physcially divided?
2) Do GCs have any control over the TRNC?
3) Do you show your passport as you cross into the TRNC just like any other foreign country?
4) Do you face 40.000 Turkish soliders?
5) Do you face a diminishing TC population in the north who does not really give a shit about unification with GCs they have no common history with?
Thats why you are deluded if the above realities did not exsist you would have exerted your control over the whole island and not wasted your time negotiating a BBF with political equality of the 2 states.
Why do you have a problem sharing as its you that demands this but you want to share on your terms and not equally.
I do not want bad things for GCs as I support right to return where physically possible, departure of both Turkish soldiers and settlers as these are your concerns and demands. What do you see fit for TCs, how will address opur concerns? Our demands are what we see as the remedy to give us the confidence to take that step forward.
4) Do you face 40.000 Turkish soliders?
Take away the above, and the rest of your list is totally meaningless, which means, the "trnc" is only there as a result of the above. What will you do when the above equation is no longer there, just because they may have a bigger piority than the TC's, i.e., the EU. If you were able to maintain all other positions that you have listed above without Number 4, then you have a reason to crow on the bravado you are demonstrating with your past few posts on this thread. It is a common practice (and a mistake) to talk big when hiding behind others. The question is, how big will you be able to talk, when you have no one to hide behind anymore.? History tells us, that nothing lasts forever. It is worth bearing that in mind, that, don't talk tough today if you are not able to back that toughness tomorrow.! Again, just remember, that the GC's are going to be in Cyprus for ever along with you, the TC's, but the Turkish troops won't be. Sooner or later, they will leave, so cut the "little man talking bravado" for the sake of a peaceful future, because your neighbour knows where you live and will also remember your illegitimate toughness.!
