There's no such thing as turkish "cypriots"
There's Turks in Turkey and Turks in Cyprus... same shit

Spot on!

The unanswered question remains... Do TCs REALLY want to break away from Turkey's grasp?

The TC's may want to breakaway from Turkey's grasp and may think they can but the reality is .... It is not going to happen.

As it stands the TC's have two options Unification and equality of rights in a democratic State of the EU where despite the fact they have a minority population they are a major part of the State of Cyprus, or annexation to Turkey where they become totally swamped by Turkish culture because the only thing they share really is language.

If they do this they stand to possibly miss out on natural resources boom that's about to hit Cyprus unless the reserves run further north into the Mediterenian Sea. In which case Turkey as a Country that has one State on the Island of Cyprus can explore within its own waters (I doubt this scenario would ever play out).

The other important thing that will eventuate form a possible annexation to Turkey is of course Turkey ministers will replace TC's administrative staff as years move on. Which leads the TC's to extinction and this for anyone who can understand is a loss in Cyprus's unique culture and major part of its history.

So its really Turkey vs GC south "RoC".

Turkey wins hands unless you GCs accept that we are equal partners in a BBF and not just some minority in a greek Cyprus as Piratis puts it.

I second that.

Regretably, the TCS are Cypriots just as we are but sterilized from RoC citizenship & benefits from the Turkish troops.

The TC leadership is powerless to do anyhting about it. The failure can only attributed to the hardliner politicians of the north, starting from Denktas thru to Eroglu.

This mess can only be blamed to themselves. Any attempt to blame the RoC is baseless and outright ridiculous, to sat the least.

The annexation of the north is not a TC option but a Turkey option. It is obvious, annexation will never be recognised, therefor must be discarded.

Imminent extiction of the TC existance is real.

typical, stupid 'latriner' - instead of focusing on the game he's having a go at spectators... ur gonna get thrashed by turkey the way ur going.

[ZoC]

and with nine votes cast, 66% have opted for a turkish victory tomorrow... but a surprising 33% back the complete underdogs to give the grey wolves a run for their lira.

either way, it should be an exciting fight... me and mrs zoc are looking forward to it...
