I think he is probably that Koulias guy of DIKO who blames the increasing road accidents on the Annan Plan and generally every ailment, real or imaginary, of our society.
Bananiot in your initial post you said: "This time round, things will be much more different than 2004". You were clearly saying that what you didn't manage to do in 2004 with Annan Plan, you will do it now with some similar plan. That was the whole point of your whole post. It was very clear what you were saying, and my reply to you is also clear: You didn't fool us in 2004, and you will not fool us now. The only solution we will accept is a true solution that actually solves our problems, not merely some agreement that would solve the problem of the EU accession of Turkey, while officially partitioning Cyprus, making the whole of Cyprus a banana republic of Turkey, and creating a ton more problems for us than the few it could solve.
The irony is that not only were you fooled in 2004, you are so blind that you cannot see it to this day. Come the referendum I wonder how many like you will remain blind? I hope not many that's for sure.
This fair plan you seem to promote, just for my own curiosity can you let me know what concessions were made by the Turkish side in the Annan Plan? (excluding the 6% land swap spanning over 2 decades)
The Annan plan was approved by the EU, Greece and UN. The only people who did not approve it, were rewarded by the entry into EU. You talk about fairness, I better be careful because I don't want to laugh so much that I may suffer a hernia. You can argue about the Annan plan till the cows come home and still you will be exactly in the same spot that you started with.
YFred, I hope you understand that what you say is not only irrelevant, but you also do not provide any arguments to support your position that we were "fooled" in rejecting the Annan plan in 2004.
As Gregory wrote, with Annan plan we would
maybe (with no guarantees) get back 6% of land over a period of 2 decades, while in return we would have to give to you 50% of the power, officially partition Cyprus and let you enjoy what you stole from us without the consequences you face today, remove Cyprus from being an obstacle in the EU accession of Turkey, legalize human rights violations against us, legalize ethnic cleansing, dissolve democracy and being forced to live under some dysfunctional system that would cause a ton more problems every day.
