your right to do so.. not cross until the turks leave and cyprus is re united.
do you think you would ever come back and live here?

i can imagine your bitternes towards turks after whats happened to you from the invasion.

My daughter was in the Navy and they sent her to Crete. She was not allowed to go to Turkey, because she was Greek American. They said she wasn't safe. While, the African Americans were allowed to go to Turkey. They told her she did not miss much. Now, she is excited about building a house on our island.
