But Cypriots
do like the European culture because they invented it. Your discomfort stems from being eastern and feeling stranded here. I suggest you go and find your roots in Asia. Cyprus is European.
You are the odd one out, the misfit.
Hi Gig, I haven't got such a big issue with Europe, I don't blame Europeans in general for racist colonialism, certainly East Europeans had nothing to do with it, but Cyprus is east of the Bosphorus, that makes it at least as Asian as it is European. Don't let your struggle against the Turkish occupation cut you off from your own roots.
Please cut it out with all your AKEL and Communist crap. Cyprus is as much part of Europe as Germany is. Our culture is aligned strongly with the values of Western Europe, North America and Australia.
When are you going to learn and let go of the Cold War relics. We are very happy with our identity and who we are and where we fit in as Cypriots within the EU.
Sure we got a lot of problems, but if the EU is ok for countries like UK, Germany, France, and Italy, then it is good enough for us as well.
