WC, we can't be a nation state all of a sudden and we don't want to be a TC minority in Cyprus just like muslim minority of Greece. Now u got it?
First of all TCs have never been and treated like a minority in Cyprus and we have never ever wished it because of conflicting Turco-Greco relations.
On the other hand, haven't u ever heard abt injustices towards minorities in Greece? Greece is a member of EU but still restricts and discriminates the rights of it's minorities. I'm sure similar things would happen in Cyprus if we obbeyed GC rule.
As for the EU the melting polt, it will either melt us in a pot after many decades or break down with a WW3 in near future. Until then either "poltical equality of 2 communities" or 2 seperate states...
