Maybe the problem lies in what you don't say, Piratis. You say here that you support human rights for Cypriots, but omit to say whether you support human rights for non-Cypriots, including Turks. If you'd said that you supported universal human rights things would be clear; but as it is you limit your support to Cypriot human rights which is usually then qualified by you saying that the will of the majority must be followed. A standard view of universal human rights - one you seem to disagree with - is that a majority view, however democratic, must not and cannot undermine those basic universal human rights.
In sum, do you support universal human rights which includes Turks as well ? Yes or no ?
Of course I support the human rights of all universally!
Why are you asking about the Turks? Do I support for Cyprus to invade Turkey and violate the human rights of the Turks?
It is Turkey which invaded our island and violates our rights with her soldiers and her settlers who are illegally occupying our lands and prevent us from returning to them.
Perhaps we can go back to 1960 and kick out all foreginers that arrived both in the north and the south. Damn the fuse has blown on my time machine so we have to delay that activity a while longer.
You can decide who is staying in the south and we'll decide in the north. Now we can't be fairer than that can we?
I know what you are going to say to that so no need to reply.
