A very interesting fact came out of this conversation is an event involving three GC mafia members who were hung for murder in 1962, who also sold weapons to TMT and were defended by Mr Dengtash himself. Clearly he was a worst lawyer than he was a politician.

The three men were Hambis Zacharia, Michael Hiletikos, and Lazaris Demetriou. Zacharia was convicted of killing a man with an axe in a Limassol vineyard in September, 1958. The other two were jointly convicted of the murder of a man outside a Limassol cabaret last year.

It's a shame nobody asked Mavroyanis whether Anastasiades actually consulted with Kotsias and Lavrov when he left to supposedly consult the national council and yet he went to Greece. The elephant in the room was totally ignored. One country who has opposed peace in Cyprus from 1960 to this day is Russia. As far as Russia is concerned no peace in Cyprus means the southern flank of NATO is not functioning correctly. What is the real shame is the fact that Greece and Turkey have normalised their relationship except military cooperation.

What Fideas should do is bring in these two and Makarios Drousiotis and Niyazi Kizilyurek into a podcast. Now every minute of this podcast would be worth watching.

Turkey’s colonization of Cyprus is a half-century old but while American and European diplomats may view the Cyprus conflict as frozen, Turkey’s recent development activities suggest Ankara seeks to thaw the frozen conflict into something far hotter. Turkey may believe it can revise the status quo gradually to gain ground on Cyprus, but its efforts to reshape the occupied zone in its own image and subordinate indigenous Turkish Cypriots to Turkey’s interests ultimately should force the United States and Europe to stand up and recognize the broader context: What Turkey now does in Cyprus is not limited to the island, nor are its roots in the 1974 Cyprus conflict; rather, Turkey’s violations of the Cypriot status quo have much more to do with its revisionist behavior and demands in the Aegean, northern Syria, northern Iraq, and Armenia’s Zangezur corridor.
