Seriously, I can't argue with you on this one. You've got 40,000 troops on your side. They get their daily subsistence rations from the state, and so do you.
Correct, we do get financial support from our
only ally Turkey.
Which means one of two things:
1. Cypriots supporting the part of the island not under the control of Turkey's military are the most astute international lobbyists the world has ever known;
2. Your position is entirely untenable as far as the rest of the world is concerned.
(Actually, I like to think it's a combination of the two - but either way you're in trouble).
Please clarify your mindset and the above comments in relation to who we have close ties with?
Not with you, VP... You say the protectorate in the north has
only one ally. I'm speculating as to why.
Because of the GCs inhumane and continued isolation of the north.
You mean 1) then. You think too much of Cypriots that are free of Turkey's military. 2) is equally a factor.
You are not making any sense???
Last chance.....
You believe it's Cypriots in the internationally recognised part of the island that cause your isolation. I agree up to a point, because they have become extremely proficient lobbyists - lobbying (by peaceful means) being the only weapon they have against your "might-is-right" strategy.
However, another factor in your isolation is the fact that no one in the world can actually endorse your position; not leg-ally, not mor-ally, not politic-ally. You see, we have all the 'allies'.
