Cyprus is a Greek island. Being part of the Greek state is not "gifting" Cyprus to anyone. Thats like saying that Manchester is gifted to England.
Being part of the Greek state would create a truly free Cyprus, as it is the case with Crete, Rhodes and other liberated Greek islands.
Our mistake was that we started the struggle for freedom way too late. We should have started right after WWII.
Independent and still part of the Greek world.
