When the Turks take over all of Cyprus ...

How can we solve it? (keep it civilized)

When the Turks take over all of Cyprus ...

When the Turks take over all of Cyprus, which of our cultural identifiers will you miss the most?

This question does not apply to "Ethnic Cypriots" because they have nothing (further) the Turks can possibly take away. For them integration/assimilation with the Turks, will be seamless.

But for the rest of us, who feel we have some precious historical/ancestral traditions we wish to hold on to, which of these will you miss the most, as you are forced to become (more) Turkish?

Wouldn't want Article 301 would we, in any shape or form? .... or perhaps some of us would welcome it?

Well seeing as you're Greek you can just migrate to Athens and feel right at home.
But then again you live in Scotland so who cares right hen?

Well the question does apply to 'Ethnic Cypriots' as well.

The whole issue of 'Ethnic Cypriotism' is probably a futile attempt to develop a Cypriot Ethnic identifier which encompasses all Cypriots in an attempt to reunify the island and end the partition. If that does not occur, and Cyprus is completely Turkified, 'Ethnic Cypriots' which are also Hellenes, despite their denials, would also have lost a great deal and I would presume that a completely Turkified Cyprus would be too difficult to bear, and that most would either repatriate to Greece, another EU country, USA, Australia and Canada.

Let's just ensure that never happens! :(

Don't worry YFried, Turkey will accommodate everything you need to go back home.

But the question is when my dear GC friend, when? is the question.

When will you answer when, when is what we want not how or why or who or even where but when is what we require.

So when will it be? When?

Now listen here Betragulluimu, this is between me and Oracle. When you get between a man and a woman, do you know what you become?
A bloody durex.

So, what was it you were saying again?
