Petition

Nearly 38 years ago, Turkey illegally invaded the island of Cyprus, seizing 38% of its land and forcing hundreds of thousands of Cypriots from their homes. To this day, there are some 40,000 Turkish troops occupying the northern part of Cyprus. That's more troops than the U.S. has in Iraq and almost half of the troops the U.S. has in Afghanistan. With tens of thousands of armed troops in an area about the size of Rhode Island, occupied Cyprus is one of the most highly militarized areas in the entire world.
Foreign troops on Cyprus are a continued crime against the Cypriot people, both Greek Cypriots and Turkish Cypriots alike. Turkish occupation troops have desecrated and destroyed religious relics and property in northern Cyrpus, including destroying over 500 Greek Orthodox churches. Turkey's continued occupation of Cyprus is an affront to international law, human rights and religious freedom and forments instability in this key region.
The people of Cyprus deserve better. The people of Cyprus deserve an end to a foreign occupation of their land.
Sign the petition to demand that Turkey remove all of its occupying forces from Cyprus.
We'll deliver your petition directly to members of Congress and the President so they can also demand that Turkey finally comply with international law.

I have some very good news for you my yanke peasant friend.

Just as soon as the ceasefire agreement is converted to peace agreement and the 80,000 GC reserve army is disarmed, Turkey will go home.

How about that is that good news or good news.

Now rejoice.

[Viewpoint]

But we TCs want them here to secure our security and keep the GCs in their place, deterring them from starting any trouble.

That's just nonsense.

What the Greek Cypriots have to hope is that both Greece and Cyprus remain in the EU as they have the right to veto Turkey joining the EU.
Turkey would love to be in the EU therefore the veto is the most likely way of getting the Turks out of Cyprus.

In your stupid petition why don't you tell everyone that the GCs were committing genocide on the TC population and the Turks put a stop to it.

I suppose that you have conveniently forgot that though ?

Short memories !
