The Greek Cypriot (perhaps cleverly without looking obvious) have put their foot in it!

Of what I have received in recent days from various Turkish Cypriot politicians, which is a first, the vast majority now want to permanently the Cyprus Talks and set a new standing on the Cyprus issue. One Politician is even demanding the renegotiation of the "Cease-Fire" line agreement, which could plunge the Cyprus question into a flash point never since since 1974! It looks like the Greek Cypriots have actually angered the very Turkish Cypriot "liberals" with whom they have so relied on in keeping our people quiet.

Ergun Olgun has finally Stepped into the ring:

Mr Akyol, a very liberal reporter from the Turkish Daily News said the following: (which I also [posted in the comments section in the above article)
Mr Ergün Olgun is a very pragmatic individual, whom worked very closely with former founder and President R.R.Denktas. He's probably regarded as the most well educated Turkish Cypriot politician on the Cyprus problem, and one whom also knows the Greek Cypriot position very well indeed. His mentioning and stance on the removal of our isolation first is spot on, as the UN Talks seeking such a Federal based formula has truly lost its meaning and it's high time that the process be scrapped and a new one re-written; perhaps replaced with a "Two State" formula, otherwise I would say that the TRNC should hang up its gloves and seek the complete Detachment from the Republic of Cyprus at the highest level. The UN has a great responsibility in demanding from the EU to make this right. The Greek Cypriot lead Republic of Cyprus's EU entry not only confused this matter, but it clearly shows that, they have destroyed it by empowering the Greek Cypriots with a false sense of ownership of the entire island. It's time this changed and only the TRNC and Turkey can do this by rejecting the Next Cease-Fire agreement and setting a new flashpoint.

The native Cypriots are not “Greek Cypriots” but native Cypriots PLAIN and that’s why they have existed here on this island from 10-12 thousand BC and beyond.

You on the other hand, are UNINVITED invaders too greedy and too selfish to show some respect to your tiny neighbors who were here for many MILLENNIUMS before you even existed as a people… before you even arrived in this region.

You do not have a leg to stand on and none of your heinous crimes against the native Cypriots; that commenced in 1571, can ever justify your presence here or any claims to any rights to our rightful tiny territory that was passed down to us by our 10,000+ year-old ancient forefathers.

It’s high time you started respecting yourselves by respecting your neighbors and making your way back to live on the land of your true forefathers in Anatolia.

Cyprus is NOT for you.

Mr H, seems not to understand that Turkey and the Tc have lost the game in Cyprus. When the ROC's hydrocarbons begin to flow throughout Europe, and the RoC turns into the next Dubai, the Tc will still be trying to squeeze Turkey for the next penny or trying to sell Gc stolen properties to Brit carpetbaggers.. That's when the Tc will begin to rediscover their Greek roots, as bambakovilides

The hymn to the Republic as will be recited by the bambakovilides:

" I pledge allegiance to the flag of the Republic of Cyprus, for which it stands, one nation under Jesus, indivisible with liberty and justice for all, including us bambakovilides"

...i will say, a Cyprus divided, is a Turkey divided.

What is the Problem, in Turkey, and in Cyprus, for Greeks and Turks, are "Turks" (and their equals, "Greeks").

"Ownership", what ever that may mean, in Cyprus is a Cypriot matter, for Cypriots, as Cypriots. Cyprus is not "Greek", indeed. Cyprus is not "Turkish", either.

...Turkey is not "Turkish"; think about it. Cyprus as one, means Turkey is one.

One of these days someone is going to decipher what RW has been saying all these years......but it'll be too late.

...by origin, i am Cypriot. Cyprus as i was raised, is Cypriot. We, my family, are Greek. There is no denying this "Greekness", indeed, there is a pride in sharing this with others, but i am not "Greek".

In my house the family is torn, those Greek, and those "Greek", brother against brother. And those missing, that is another story, why they stayed, why they disappeared.

...you must appreciate the fact that i know Turks, i come from a "mixed village", i know the difference between "Turks", and Turks, like those so full of venom, "Greek", as a Cypriot i see the difference.

There is one Cyprus, as i see it, and Cyprus is most certainly not "Greek", not "Turkish", but something older; to Humanity, as it is to Cypriots, something far more valuable than it is as "theirs'".

There's no cure for cognitive deficit... we're stuck with his nonsense.

...you guys may not understand what is plain to see; Cypriots, Cyprus exists, they are Greek, by the greatest majority, but they don't have to be "Greek", and like the Cypriots of Turkish origin, they are denied recognition, by "Turks".

What is hard to understand?

Show it to your friends and family and see what they think.

If it makes sense to them then there’s something wrong with us.

Would you define yourself as Greek or 'Greek', if we had achieved enosis in 1960?
