The story starts at 30:50 and goes on for about 8 minutes.

I have to admit I nicked this link from our "friends" at 44.

Thank you CBBB .......... interesting what language used to to describe the Turkish occupation. No mention of TC's at all. And now it becomes a war between Turkey and Cyprus.

Thanks, CBBB.

Noted some very interesting changes in rhetorical phrases used by the BBC. Finally, a sign of respect for Cyprus. Recognition of its Greek identity and as a useful player in the EU. Most significantly, a firm identification of Turkish belligerence in Cyprus and the region as a whole.
