There are islands off Greece which are part of Greece.
Cyprus isn't one of them.
What a ridiculous point. Falklands is "off mainland UK"? And how far is Hawaii from mainland USA or the Canary islands from mainland Spain ... distance is really relevant here.And I am one of those lovely EU CITIZENS who are free to travel, live and work in other EU countries.
And Cyprus, more than most, WAS DESPERATE to become one of those EU COUNTRIES.
Were you off sick on the days lady O posted all her raving rants about howCyprus is now a Modern European Country
and how it has the backing of the mighty EU behind it to help it deal with Turkey?The RoC with the help of EU, will remove all Turkish influence from Cyprus, once and for all ......The EU has to take note and prepare to annihilate you from European soil
Cyprus cannot just stop being in the EU when it suits it to be racist - should have thought about hatred for all foreigners before clamouring to join the club!
That might actually be something else you can blame Greece for in years to come - your admission to the EU and adoption of the Euro!
Where did you see hatred for all foreigners?
You are free to live and work here (as long as you obey our laws - do you?), but you have no right to tell us what our island should and shouldn't do. This is why foreigners don't vote in presidential or parliamentary elections. It is really none of your business.
Re gumbare! Your statements are becoming comical by the minutes! How can you compare Greece and its territories to that of UK who colonized a large portion of the world from Europe to Americas, to Middle East, Africa, New Zealand, Australia and the Far East!!! Most were never colonized before AND once colonized those states stayed a British colony (including Cyprus) until granted their independence. When was Cyprus a part of a Greek Empire only and stayed as such until its independence?
Many Empires preceded Hellenistic, Byzantine and Ottoman Empires and you have a serious problem in your thought process if you keep bragging Cyprus has always been an ethnic(?) Greek island!
Pratis needs a holiday. A very long holiday. Perhaps a one way ticket to Oranos.
No He needs a trip to one of JUpiters moons, where he can cool down a some, can GR join him there. They make a lovely pair.
GR is a Cypriot through and through. He stays. Those Greeks can go anywhere you suggest.
