British Turkish Cypriot Association has written the following open letter to the President Akinci:


Dear President Akinci,

The British Turkish Cypriot Association supports the UN sponsored negotiations and its aim to achieve a viable solution in Cyprus. However, given the current conflicting trajectory of the talks, we have a number of serious concerns, which we see as a threat to the peace and prosperity of the Turkish Cypriot people and therefore the sustainability of any agreement reached.

Given that the Turkish Cypriots will make the ultimate decision at the ballot box on referendum day, the absence of our representation throughout the talks can only make this an unjust and totally undemocratic process. The Turkish Cypriot people were given very little time to absorb the Annan Plan in 2004. Similarly this time around, our people have not been party to any reliable information or participation in a decision about their future and safety. Therefore, they can only join the politicians, whom you have recently complained about, in forming a ‘NO’ vote to the uncertainty brought about by closed-­‐shop discussions and contradictory statements by your Greek Cypriot counterparts and their media.

As from the latest population census, the number of Turkish Cypriots in the TRNC was 286,257 people but it has been announced that only 220,000 will be the limit on citizenship and voting rights. This therefore will see the start of the unification with limits on the development and future of Turkish Cypriots with no real indication who will be awarded the accolade of citizenship and who will have to re-­‐apply. Only this time the same people will face a demoralising fight with the limits set and what we see as a fairly hostile Greek Cypriot administration deciding our heritage and right to be part of it.

Who do you propose to exclude from voting and citizenship? How can you limit your own people from the right to return and invest in their own country? Furthermore, are you purposefully excluding the Turkish Cypriot Diaspora who has a natural vested interest in the whole process? These people are dual nationals who own properties in the TRNC, continue to fulfil their military obligations and pay TRNC taxes. Is this fair? We demand to know if the Greek Cypriots are following the same principle.

Have the Evkaf properties, illegally appropriated during British rule by Greek Cypriots, been discussed at the negotiation table or are these properties simply going to be handed over to the Greek Cypriots?

The single biggest concern to all Turkish Cypriots relates to the properties they live in. Contrary to the Annan Plan, if our people say “YES” to the proposed plan, they will potentially face individual property claims by the Greek Cypriots. This will bring the TRNC economy to a standstill and long protracted legal processes. If this scenario materializes, who will be funding the “compensation” for these claims? This will no doubt bring civil unrest to our people and huge economic loss.

Has the economic and other losses suffered by Turkish Cypriots during the 1963-­‐74 period been calculated and raised at the negotiation table?

Will there be permanent derogations from EU law to consolidate and affirm the continuity of bi-zonality?

Given the uncertainty of the EU’s future status post UK’s Brexit decision, can you seriously even consider relinquishing Turkey’s Guarantor status? Furthermore, the rise in Greek Cypriot nationalism and the global anti Muslim sentiment will leave our people totally unprotected, exposed and isolated.

We need a well-established settlement that will bring stability and future prospects to all Turkish Cypriots and feel that a last minute ‘YES’ or ‘NO’ vote to a deal that we have had no involvement in is not part of a stable system that should be put to the people.

Actually, it's the Turkish Cypriot Diaspora and Turkey whom run Northern Cyprus and not the socialist, brainwashed non-capitalist minded Liberals that you GCs are so easily able to manipulate. The TRUE Turkish Cypriots abroad have not aligned themselves with the Turkish motherland again in another campaign of True for all Turkish Cypriots abroad. The Greek Cypriots should be ready for this! There are over 100 Turkish Cypriot Associations abroad whom are now working closely with the KONSEY and Turkiye's MGK in countering anything bias from both the Greek Cypriots and the EU on a daily basis - My email inbox is flooded with related emails by the 100s on a daily basis, and they also contain a good number from the Greek Cypriot hardliners too - whom want the same as what we want - a Two State Federal agreement based on clear lines! Thank you!

You and they can want all you like, it's not going to happen, that I can assure you. For the moment we sign a legal entity to Turkey means Cyprus is finished as we know it. The GCs need to understand that they will end up being cleaners and home help tot the Turks and carpetbaggers to feed their families.

Didn't make any difference to barbarians, they were slaughtering, babies, children, old ladies and anyone else they could find.

So in your own words go fuck yourself, I stand by everything I said. But, hey, why am I not worried, because there is not going to be any solution, you can get your mothers village back, whilst I lose mind. Typical Fucking Turkish logic, whats mine is mine, whats yours is mine. Hade assirktir.
