I had to laugh when I read the article no one can deny two countries on Cyprus. The world has been denying the existence of a military lead enclave for 33 years ... lol where have the Turks been?
Wishful thinking.
You can't blame the dis-functioning UN on the Turks. Its only a matter of time before people realise that its actually a travesty and should be put down like GR should be. It has become pointless.
What exactly is a travesty Fred , the occupation of a part of Cyprus by Turkey , the displacement of almost 200 thousand Cypriots from their ancestral homes , the demographic rape of Cyprus where the occupied part has less than 80 thousand indigenous Cypriots , the rest made up of settlers and soldiers , where is this travesty taking place .
An increasing number of T/Cs are reacting against the occupation and the presence of settlers in Cyprus. Turkey insists on two nations knowing bloody well that the overwhelming majority in the northern part of Cyprus are Turkish settlers. She will not get her way , the T/Cs will not stand by and see their own extinction unfold and neither will the G/Cs ever accept a permanent partition of their island.
I was referring to the behaviour of the UN and its inability to actually do some good against the interest of the 5 Permanente Security members.
I am not saying that what happened in Cyprus was not. But just look at what has been going on in the world and the way UN is unable to do anything.
50,000 TCs left Cyprus since 1974 Aprox 30% of the population, does RoC policies have no responsibility for this? It takes two to tango.
Isn't that a travesty?
The RoC has a lot to answer for. No serious efforts have been undertaken to allay the fears of a section of our citizens and their concerns that the RoC is only representative of the largest of the two main communities.
I would like to see more arduous energy given to building trust and backed up with actions .
The RoC however can not be expected seriously to encourage the division of our island by gestures likely to promote the permanent partition of our island.
Are you kidding me? Really, are you kidding me? The government of Cyprus can not get any more left leaning then it is now! You hippie! What actions do you demand? Those citizens dont want anything to do with you or your notion of a Cypriot Republic! You dont even live on this island! How many more benefits must we hand out?
Is there a political party thats more left than a communist? I would like to know!!
Read this and read it carefully. Since 1974 we have been telling the International community that there is but ONE only Cyprus and that a part of Cyprus is under occupation by Turkey. We have proclaimed loud and clear that ALL citizens of the RoC are equal under the law of the land including the occupied part over which we have no " jurisdiction" .
We have our RoC passports and IDs clearly showing our nationality as being Cypriot and in 3 languages , Greek Turkish and English.
We are now a member of the EU , as Cyprus not South , Greek Cyprus but as CYPRUS. This surely tells that all of this island belongs to the Cypriot people , all Cypriot people , yet our ex President visits Greece and clearly and rather loudly declares this island as a Hellenic island , two fingers up to the those whom we are suppose to also represent .
Our very own ROC has as its national anthem the Greek !!!!! It flies the Greek flag unperterbed that this emblem is not only not acceptable to the T/Cs , whom we call equal citizens , but also unacceptable to those of us that very much wish to be what our parents grandparents and those before them were , CYPRIOTS.
We have to win the T/Cs on our side , they have to hear it from us , that this island belongs to all Cypriots not only to the G/Cs .
A long time ago I came to realize that no power on earth can remove one Turkish soldier from our island , the power that would be the USA but why should it , it is hated here just as much as its hated in Hamas land.
I came to the conclusion that the only power is that of the T/Cs . Voices of dissension are now audible in the occupied part and they are growing by the day. Let us convince them with actions that they are part of us not Turkey.
