From RIK news, Andros Kyprianou said on a radio station that he would rather have a left-wing Turkish Cypriot President of the Republic than a right-wing Greek Cypriot one!

Andros Kyprianou is now trying to dig himself out of the sh*t.

So what is wrong with that, unless one is Racist??

I didn't say there was anything wrong with it, but Andros Kyprianou seems to think there is. he is backtracking like crazy!

That would obviously depend on how that Turkish Cypriot would be elected. If he meant a Turkish Cypriot president elected democratically by the majority of the Cypriot people as a whole, then no problem at all.

But if he meant he would prefer a left-wing Turkish Cypriot president even if he was elected undemocratically by just the TCs, then that would be a problem.

If he is backtracking then I assume what he said was the second, and now he realized his mistake.
