@Lordo, and boulio, from another set of posts:
...Canada as a model may offer some insight, Quebec has not seperated yet, it has had so far two referendums, and one election based on this notion, in any case Quebecers at the polls demonstrate(d) themselves to be attached to the Universal values, Canada represents (making Canada, in effect, stronger). and when and if one day seperatists, anywhere in Canada, (because there are several movements) succeed, (the Federation that is these many parts has mechanisms), there exists a Supreme Court which is independent and credible, as well as a strong Central Government, prepared with Law in place, where within its parameters such dialog may be opened; here is democracy, and a country which is based successfully on diversity, because the People benefit from the support they give to each other, as Humans, first.
i.e. Britain, which has added a minority recently, and, with Scotland should they gain independence, it does not require the dissolution of the State to effect these changes. in the matter of Cyprus, one hopes the Justice seen does not reward a 'fait accompli' which concludes with illegal occupation, and in affect the extinction of a People close to their Land, because in "Turkish" minds, not Turkish enough.
...it would be great if Eroglu took up the challenge, to demand the creation of a Greek Constituency, so that there is an equal to his own reflections; if he dared to fly a Cypriot Flag, while he demands all Greek flags be removed from Federal Government buildings, that Greeks should represent themselves as Greeks in a National Assembly, not within the realm of the Republic, if it is Greekness they want to better; that would be bold.
