Human Rights applies to those who are not permitted by Turkey and the Turkish Cypriots regime to return to their properties because of their ethnicity.

being agreed are you kinding me or what?dektash propoganda machine are you big oz?or that evkaf owns all of cyprus but dektash failss to mention that the t/c side received 1.5 million pounds in 1959 for the prioperty?

[Get Real!]

I am sure they would not teach you these in your history books but if you Googled around the time of 74 you will definitely come accross facts relating to population exchange being an "agreed" exchange when most actually did move to North/South voluntarily. Not necessarily because that was what they wanted, but under the circumstances, it was a matter of staying alive or taking chances (for both parties).

I don't think so! There's no such thing as a "population exchange agreement". Care to prove me wrong or do you withdraw your post?

What about those who are ordered to uproot and move elsewhere for 6 months to get their properties back?

It would be a pleasure to prove you wrong GR!
Below quote is from an official EU educational archive:
http://ec.europa.eu/education/languages ... /cy_en.pdf
See bottom of page 3 where it clearly states:

“……Following the events of 1974 almost all Turkish Cypriots had concentrated in the occupied area. On the basis of a Population Exchange Agreement, 196,000 Greek Cypriots living in the North were exchanged for 42,000 Turkish Cypriots living in the South…”

There are moe details concerning the agreement (i.e. it was signed between Denktash and Makarios during 1975...) but I really cannot be bothered to google round to find other independent sources at this time of the night. If anyone is so interested I am sure thay can do the same and find out!

Enough or you want more???
