:? Hmm, let's see now...

Rome > Roman > Correct!
Cyprus > Greek > Correct!
Cyprus > Cypriot > Correct!

You should start following my advice Yialousa!


:o

All of the above (Roman, Greek, Cypriot) are Hellenes! :D

no he probably didnt whats your point? He was forced to agree to an agreement that his heart was not into. In my opinion during his reign as president of the ROC, he may have realized that Enosis was virtually impossible to achieve with the brits and turks breathing fire whenever enosis came up. Does that answer your question?

Thank you everyone for proving me right once again, the enosis dream was still alive and kicking well after the 1960 agreements we sign it just went underground.

You have got to be kidding me. Greece has gone under and your trying to prove that the movement Enosis is still alive? It may be for Kurupetos and a couple of other families but I doubt that many Cypriots would want to go that way. If they do I would like to know why.

BTW VP you personally cannot talk about Enoisis as you promote the idea of Taksim
