No my fear is the untrustworthy and discriminatory GCs.

Your only choice is extinction. Then we'll take care of the Turks.

I guess he's talking about you!

I'm not Greek/Greek Cypriot! I'm Hellene Cypriot!

Anything is better than living in a Gc state as a minority.

That would definitely be true if the TCs were considering joining the RoC as an identifiable politically active community instead of a bunch of “repatriated” Cypriot citizens.

You see, it all comes down to the INTENTIONS of the said community.

Any actions that SEGREGATE the community as an ETHNIC POLITICAL FORCE will undoubtedly warrant the wrath of the majority!

For every action there's a reaction!

Just as was the case in the enosis dream?

You haven't addressed the point I've raised!

Do you suspect that the TC community has underlying ETHNIC political aspirations; despite being ethnically outnumbered by 4 to 1, that would jeopardize a peaceful existence among the rest of the Cypriots?

No my fear is the untrustworthy and discriminatory GCs.

Good luck with the 70 million Turks.

We can get rid of them with the new generation WMD we're building with cooperation with Israel.

For all of you guys living abroad please notice some things:
The economic situation TODAY in Cyprus is near TRAGIC.
In the ROC controlled areas we have record highs in unemployment, businesses are closing down one after another, brand new shops-buildings-houses-apartments just stay there unsold and empty. Banks profits started declining fast.
People just don’t know what to do.Long term unemployment (more than 6 months) is already a FACT for more than 50% of those who lose their jobs.The Government is scratching her head to increase revenue, while international Financial firms have already degraded Cyprus’s financial status 2 times within 12 months.
Now if the situation in the ROC is near tragic you can imagine what goes on in the occupied.
Imo, the TCs were demonstrating for what is the obvious #1 cause of their financial drowning, (Turkey and her occupation policy). However imo there is also cause #2, and that is the how the economy in the RoC controlled area is doing. Like it or not there is a one way dependence already. Where would that lead us regarding the Cyprob I don’t know…

pyro nice to see you posting again...

the biggest global problem today is credit...the biggest industry by far today is lending people money...

banks today are not content with keeping your money in the bank...or not content to lending you money so you can pay off your house...today banks want to keep your house...just remember for banks to pay interest they need people borrowing and paying back twice the interest...otherwise it will not work...

in the '60s there was a mad rush to borrow money to pay off a house...now the house is paid off the banks lend you money, a lot of money for anything and everything using the paid house as a guarantee...well guess what, the same banks now control the economy...what do you think will happen?...

the problem today is a massive amount of credit available to every tom dick and harry...prime example is the US...the housing market broke the US government...a heating real estate is a bonanza for banks...real estate going up means huge borrowings from banks and financial institutions...

"Of course we too have made it clear to them that we do not recognize the citizenships that they have granted following the collapse of the 1960 Partnership Republic in 1963” the Special Representative stressed."

Meaning what exactly? That they will not recognise as Cypriots any person born in Cyprus after 1963? You have to ask such inane questions when dealing with TC officials and Turks. Twisted thinking is a Turkish specialty, like the one that says Turkish ships can go through Greek national waters because that right is "given by the Law of the Sea Convention" but in the same breath they assert that the Law of the Sea cannot be applied to either Greece or Cyprus EEZ because the area is a special case.

Probably this kind of thinking represents some postmodern neo ottomanism of which VP is a valiant rep on the forum.

Eroglu is the spokesman for the illegal settlers in the north. He was "elected" by settlers after all. I wonder how many settlers were protesting last week against Turkish policies in the north?

Not only is the regime in the north illegal, it doesn't even represent the T/C community in the talks anymore. Not just pariahs but powerless. Welcome to the "TRNC"....

TC's have only themselves to blame, for this one an indeed their whole situation. No empathy from here.

At one point I thought that as well.

Deniz : I continue to believe in equal rights for all Cyptiots regardless of their religious and linguistic background. However, when it comes to their current situation a humanist does not say ok I support you because thats the right thing to do or at least the expected thing to do by a humanist. I look at the situation. I see that most TC's on here and their leader are pushing for partition of Cyprus .... That is an action I will never support and that goes any empathy toward the breakaway TC community. TC's today in Cyprus have more rights than their GC counterparts.
