Turkey’s crimes in Cyprus 'must be recognised'

NICOSIA -- House President Marios Garoyan has expressed the hope that Turkey’s crimes in Cyprus will be recognized just as the Armenian Genocide is being recognised.

Asked to comment on a resolution of Swedish parliament recognising the 1915 Armenian Genocide by the Ottomans, Garoyan said that some people try to brush under the carpet the crime that took place against Cyprus in 1974.

He said he had been briefed about the discussions on the matter at the Swedish parliament by the country’s ambassador here.

“One more country shows the way. Genocide can no longer be overlooked and Turkey has to recognise it,” he remarked, saying that these crimes cannot be discounted, nor can the genocide be considered an accidental event that took place many decades ago.

Turkey, he pointed out, is accountable to the international community with regard to such crimes.

“I want to send a clear message. The Armenian genocide is gradually being recognized. I hope that Turkey’s crimes in Cyprus will also be recognized because since 1974 some are trying to discount Ankara’s crime on the island and this cannot be accepted,” he stressed.

Good call Mr. House President Marios Garoyan :D

The thousands of GCs racially and specifically targeted by the Turkish evil Mehmetcik (who according to some Turkish women only did a half-hearted job, god-forbid) for slaughter, should be recognised as the victims of another Turkish genocide atrocity!

Give me strength. Why don't you people learn the history of your island.
HOW MANY TIMES, this Cyprus problem did NOT start in 1974. Nobody denies Greek Cypriots were killed in July August 1974. IT WAS A WAR.
YOU instigated a Turkish intervention with Enosis and the Greek Coup.
Read a History book of 1959-1974 (not a GC History text book) or just read the British and world papers of the time. It's all there.

What exactly are you saying only me ?
Are you perhaps suggesting that the Cypriot people got what they deserved , invaded , ethically cleaned , thousands killed and thousands made refugees? Or are you perhaps insinuating that somehow Turkey just had to invade in order to ..put a stop to the ongoing massacre of the T/Cs. Do tell me .

Rather strange question miltades !
it is obvious the Turkish Army intervened to stop the killing of Turkish Cypriots. This had gone on since the 1950's.

Then perhaps you would enlighten me by telling me how many T/Cs were killed SIX years before the Turkish invasion. I have asked this question at least one thousand times , I have yet to receive an answer.
I hope that you have done your research and have a credible answer.
May I also say , put up or shut up !
Over to you ..

Milti, why don't we start by saying how many GCs were killed between 15th and 20th of July 1974. Please don't quote 97, that is a joke. Major Dano alone killed more than that.
Stop kidding yourself, Sampson had only one thing in his mind. Ask yourself this question, why Did Sampson come to power? To do what Makarios would not do. Makarios wanted to use just economic power to cleanse the TCs and Sampson just did not have time for such niceties. Of all people you should be able to see that. We still have not found out how may were killed trying to attack Lurucina well south of the Green Line. How many Tanks were lost? 2 are there to this day as reminder of what Sampson intended for the TCs.

Obviously special needs

Welcome to the forum and I see it didn't take you long to work out our princess of darkness.
Just ignore her, she will go away eventually and nobody takes her seriously except those who would like to get their leg over.
