The problem with the TCs is that, most of them, having lived under the Anatolian yoke for so long, have adopted the vulture/hyena mentality of their Anatolian masters. They wait until others make the catch/kill and they move in to grab it.
Examples?
CY economy: From 1974 to 2004 the Greek Cypriots, without any help from them, managed to build a healthy and strong economy. Without contributing anything to it, they were enjoying all the privileges of the citizens of the CY such as free electricity free medical care, retirement pensions etc.
EU. They opposed viciously the admission of Cyprus. They tried to cancel it or delay it. They threatened with war, invasion, annexation of the occupied north and I don’t know what. And as soon as Cyprus was admitted they started claiming full EU benefits and lots funds.
Natural gas: Same story. Threats, barks, intimidation. When all that failed and Cyprus proceeds with extraction drills soon, they demand their “fair share” to the revenues. What “fair share”? In which way have they contributed to the result to be entitled to a share of any kind?
Well, this is my answer to them.
You want a share?
Firstly, pay your share of the costs incurred by the R.o.C. for the admission to the EU and for the discovery and the preparation of the extraction of the gas.
Secondly, pay your back taxes and social insurance and medical care costs and electricity bills etc .
Then, DO your share in kicking Turkey and its settlers out.
Finally, give back the stolen properties to their owners.
Here is the deal I would propose to them: Out of the net revenues to which the RoC will be entitled, it should calculate their share to it (18%) and deduct from it their share to all the expenditure, costs and dues I mentioned above. And IF ANYTHING is left over for them, they should be welcome to take it and stuff it. Provided, of course, they would help us oust their mama and her settlers from the island first.
And if they do not agree to all the previous, I have an alternative answer to them, all in blue and white mind you:
