...indeed, among us on this Forum, and in Cyprus, we can witness the difference between "Greeks" and Greeks, "Turks" and Turks. Those who see the rest of the world as "others", and those that see a world as one. Indeed, Greeks and Turks are the same, just as "Greeks" and "Turks".
This is the Problem. While it is true that the Agenda for Peace revolves around the adversarial positions of "Greek" and "Turkish" identities, it, as a debate remains at an impasse because, in affect Cypriots remain unrepresented as Cypriots, as Cypriots, having their voice; as though a Cypriot's existence is not relevant, as though Cypriots will exist as a result of "their" resolutions.
...but i am hopeful. Despite the unnatural division, despite the plunder in the territories illegally occupied, despite the decades, as is said, not much has changed. Cypriots exist despite the subjugation, despite the hate, they remain a loving People.
...really nice photo, worth a thousand words.
thanks, Cap.
