I can see a day when vast majority of TC's will say fuck the GC's, they'll never accept us as Cypriots so we might as well become real Turks. Let the north be an annexe of Turkey. This is where we're heading with this problem.
We are currently on opposite sides at a cease fire of a war, with a 3rd of Cyprus under occupation. What did you expect?
For the hostility to end, the cause of the hostility should end first. It can not be any other way.What you are referring to is a non-issue. The reason TCs do not agree to a solution is not because GCs do not accept them as Cypriots, but because some of their demands, such as 50%-50% power sharing, all Settlers to stay, and Turkish guarantees, are not accepted.
I wonder if our interpretation of "the cause of the hostility" is the same?
I had a shop in north London back in the days of Nokia 101 and Ericsson 388. It was a busy shop dealing in Sky TV and satellites for Turks and Greeks. My little Ericsson went missing so I kept calling it. In the end I got an answer. I explained he would probably get 50 quid from another shop dealing in stolen goods, I offered him double. He asked for £200.00. I had no choice but to agree. I had all my contacts in that little phone so I had no choice. We arranged a place to meet, I had to promise I would go alone and would not not contact the police (not that those useless bastards would have been much help) and would give him crispy £50.00 notes. I did exactly that, even shook his hand and went back to my shop happy as though I had won the lottery.
Make of my story what you will
When you paid you got your whole phone back, for a price that presumably was lower than the value of that phone to you. What if the thief said he would return just part of what he stole, and instead of £200 he asked for £20.000?
This is a question of how much we get vs how much we give. The Turkish side offers too little and demands in return way too much, making an agreement impossible as we would be worst off with such agreement than without it.
That person who took your phone did what was in his interest. He managed to get you to pay him as high price as possible, without asking for a price that would be so high that you wouldn't agreed to, because in that case he would lose as well. In the case of TCs, they greedily ask for a price way too high, that we are not willing to give. As a result there will be no agreement, and they are the ones who will be the biggest losers.
If they agreed to the max that we are willing to offer, they would have their own federal state (with mostly TCs rather than Settlers), part of EU, and proportional representation in the government. Without agreement they will be absorbed by Turkey and become a tiny minority without any say at all, before they are absorbed and disappear altogether.
more bullshit again as per usual. all the tcs are asking is a fair exchange with prices worked out by the same authority which will calculate the vlaue of all properties. this is an authority wich will be set up that will be independent and fair.
you are just too stupid to realise the reality on the gorund. the values today are what they are and thats what we have to go on. you are not going to go back to the prices of 74 and buy and sell at that prices.
at least make some sonce you stupid idiot and you reckong you have a positive iq, like hell you do. you have a fakin -1000 iq you idiot.
but anyway the rabbit is caught in the trap, there is no escape. either you cut off a limb or you come to an amicable peace agreement. the choice is yours.
You are so stupid you didn't even understand what I wrote
I wasn't even talking about the issue of private properties, but since you mentioned it, a "fair exchange" can not be a forced exchange. The values today in the north are what they are because they are illegally occupied. If you don't offer a price that is acceptable to the owner, then the owner shouldn't have to sell it to you. And in the decision of the owner will not matter just the current value, but also the predicted future value.
Also, with the "solution" that you want Turkey would be off the hook regarding the properties. How the fuck are you going to pay for all those GC properties that you want to keep to house the 10s of thousands of Settlers that you imported? You do not have the money to buy them, even at a discount. What you want is for us to pay for them. Basically you expect from GCs to pay refugee GC compensations. You are clearly an idiot, but I assure you we aren't.
We have already offered to your minority very generous peace terms. Beyond that it is your choice if you want to remain a pseudo state and gradually start losing your RoC rights, while being absorbed by Turkey.
