I've downloaded the book and will read it. Your quote is inaccurate, the actual quote reads as follows: -
'Even if there was not one single Muslim Turk over there (Cyprus), Turkey would have to maintain a Cyprus question. No country could possibly be indifferent to an island like this, placed in the heart of its (geographical) location.'
I believe this is the same stance Greece takes on Cyprus. The FM is saying there would be a Cyprus QUESTION. He does not say 'Turkey would be there'.
This accurate version of your quote can also be found here, printed in the Greek Reporter.

Hardly, you are peddling an extremist propoganda when the truth is far more complex.
Muslims/no Muslims, that is irrelevant in my eyes. The TC's are known to be the most relaxed Muslim nation in the world!
The Turkish FM is expressing the sentiments of any country in the modern world. Do we not all try to keep our neighbours as allies and friends? Of course! Is the FM saying he wants to take over Cyprus? No! He is saying Turkey maintains an interest, as do Greece. Cyprus is too strategically placed for them not too. Even the British have a strategic interest and they are not even a neighbouring country!
.and yes there are some Turkish mainland settlers
May I also state that there are huge numbers of Greek mainlanders that have settlers in the South since '74. No one seems to mention this.
Re mixed parentage, I gave this information in one of my initial posts, it's not a new admission. I don't think I need to state on an internet forum which was which just so that you can throw a few predictable 'mother/father' insults at me

Cyprus has taken the thin and narrow since joining the EU. Virtually every decision she takes is in accordance with international law.
You CANNOT fault the RoC.. now!! The RoC is a model state, excluding the few environmental issues still on the agenda.. yes,granted!
Anybody claiming otherwise is either a traitor or a fkn T**rk. It's that simple.
Hope I've answered your question B25
Further to your admission you are from mixed parentage, I wonder why you have chosen to shit over your GC side? I am guessing your mother was the GC??
