At no point. Even the constitution of our own country was written by others instead of allowing Cypriots to do it in a democratic way.
On the other hand, the Turks and the British had full control for centuries. How was this control used? It was used to oppress and enslave the great majority of the natives of this island.
You complain because we made a proposal that the 18% minority of Turkish Cypriots should receive proportional power instead of all those racist supremeprivileges like 30% governmental jobs. That was our "crime", while you forget that for centuries when you or the British were ruling Cyprus the great majority of Cypriots was not even asked for its opinion, let alone to be given any part of power.
Now the Turks do even worst. Not only they illegally occupy part of our country, not only they do in that part whatever they feel like without considering the legal population of that area, but they went on to ethnically cleanse us and to grossly violate our human rights again like they did for the most part of our common history on this island!!
Come on piratis now you are just being bloody minded you know full well that the only opportunity we had and the starting point for many to all our troubles was the 1960 consititution like it or not you commited to it and should have tired to make it work with us. Is it the GC way to sign asn agreement that you know you will do everything within your power to undermine and dillute the balance which was put in place so as to ensure protection of the TC minority against the threat of the GC majority who sole aim was to make Cyprus Greece.
If your main problem is the fact that we had 1 extra government job than we should have then have it, (why are you complaining you have had them all since 1963 but we wont go there for now) the balance of being able to block actions such as uniting with Greece by using a veto is more important than having a few extra government jobs.
The kin and need for vengeance for actions taken against your community by my and maybe even your ancestors is frightening, yet you continue to dismiss actions taken by your father took against mine as if it were insignificant and that Turkey just one sunny July day decided to take 37% of the island. Well Piratis you really need to take a reality check no one in their right mind would go a back to a drunken wife beating husband just because that husbands demands it. The alcoholic husband has to win back his wife's affections and prove that he will not beat and degrade her, no longer will she need her big brother to provide for her safety and that she can expect a better life living in peace and prosperity. All she sees now is that her husband is just the same alcoholic pig he was back then, nothing has changed, so why go back?
