As far as the settlers are concerned, if we had the agreement in 1979, there would have been a few settlers to worry about. The delay has been caused by the RoC. She has said no to every single agreement since 1963. So I am afraid now, we have no choice but to accept the settlers so long as TCs want them. As to the practicality of who does what, the plan Talat gace Christofias,with 90,000 return to their property under the Greek Cypriot Administration, 40,000 to return under Turkish Cypriot Administration and 20,000 compensation was perfectly good deal. It was refused. But what I find difficult to understand is if Christofias did not want it, why did he offer almost identical deal to Eroglu?
The feeble attempt to try to make the Turkish Cypriots look intransigent is not going to work. It's like bolting the door after the horse has bolted.
So I take it that that the person renting your land is a fellow Cypriot and that's what's so honorable about Cypriots both sides of the divide in that legal action is hardly ever taken between Cypriots in lieu of a settlement.
If you discovered that your property was "owned" by a retired foreign couple or property investor, then by all means sue, I don't think you'll find any objection to this.
However, calling on TCs to take legal action against fellow Cypriots is a very distasteful and dishonorable act but hardly surprising coming from someone who would rather die than receive free medical treatment from the RoC and I'm just thankful that most TCs are honorable people that have respect for the human rights of their fellow Cypriots.
