Erdogan:No concessions were made on Cyprus

How can we solve it? (keep it civilized)

According to the poll conducted by Gnora/RAI in the government administered Greek Cypriot south, 56 percent respondents are against rotating presidency in a reunified federation, a clear rejection to any Turkish Cypriot president.

Either Chris couldn't have managed to explain the merits of rotating presidency or 56% of GCs still bear the old but dead mentality that TCs r just a minority and no more than minority rights should be given to them. I tend to believe both influnce the point of view of 56% of GCs who r against rotating presidency but latter has more influence.

"Either Chris couldn't have managed to explain the merits of rotating presidency"

Actually the question posed allowed the responders to assume that it was a system like the 1960 one with the addition of rotation. It was not a fully developed idea as presented by Christofiaw where all citizens vote for President and Vice President on a joint ticket.
