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.
Are you saying that if the Cold War ended as it did in 1989, the West will stop propping up the pseudo-state and Cyprus will be "liberated" like South Africa? Are they better off?
No I am not saying that! You are saying it!
It's all in your head. The West does not propup the illegal regime. In fact, they are helping the RoC now.
This is all AKEL crap. Not to mention the fact that AKEL led Cyprus or at least contributed significantly to the Coup from all the bullshit policies of non allignment which was a cover for closer ties to the Warsaw Pact during the Cold War.
And don't forget that the biggest Pariah State today is North Korea. A disgusting regime that has really fucked with the heads of ordinary Koreans. That is your legacy, so don't talk to us about the West.
Paphitis, I'd love to have a real talk with you about Marx. About material vs spiritual considerations and how we've moved on from the time of needing to reject Christian dogma absolutely for example. Or about economics and the possibilities opened up by cybernetics. Or about jealousy vs human rights. I personally think it is the whole world's legacy.
