Turkish Speaking Cypriots are a minority in the North

How can we solve it? (keep it civilized)

Believe it or not you guys the person in here I feel the closest is Viewpoint. I disagree and quarel all the time with him, sometimes he hits me on the nerves, but I don't know why, this is how I feel.

That's a beautiful thought Pyrpolizer. You have my utmost respect. As for my post, well, I was just being a silly old man. :wink:

I usually refrain from revealing my true emotions, but I don't considered you a silly old man, and the respect to you from me became unconditional some time ago.

VP WROTE:
"""lets agree a level playing field where we have exactly the same rights, you have direct flights, I have direct flights, you have 10000 soldiers, I have 10000 soldiers, you have 45000 settlers from Russia I have the same and so on....what do you think or is to difficult to share equally? """

I have no problem with that at all , as you know minorities and majorities in Cyprus do not bother me provided all are Cypriots including the 10000 soldiers that you mention. But of course the difference between our views is that you want nothing less than a Turkish Cyprus , while I want Greek Cyprus like a hole in the head. I want those troops to be 20 or 30 or 40 thousand , not each , but all of Cyprus .

It is time that you come out and admit that you are not just a participant on this forum but you are in your official capacity as the mouthpiece of partition.

Jerry wrote:To me the logic of saying that settlers should be allowed to stay in Cyprus is really no different from the argument that refugees should be allowed to return, Some would say that on humanitarian and moral grounds both arguments are equally sustainable but why is it right to only offer some G/Cs compensation with no right to return and yet settlers can remain. This to me is the real Cyprus Problem - G/Cs will never accept the status quo as the starting point for a negotiated solution but the longer the division remains the more difficult it will be to solve. Turkey's concern for the T/Cs is a poor second for her desire for to a colony/military base on Cyprus, a base that will help prevent "Greek encirclement". There will be a solution eventually when the T/Cs are a political minority. Turkey will agree to a much smaller "share" (maybe 15% or less) of Cyprus in return for legal partition and unopposed entry to the EU - that may be an offer the Greek Cypriots would not refuse.



So what you are saying is we need to settle before we settle. We cannot turn back time. If we cannot negotiate from today then we cannot negotiate at all. Kind of sick really.

Thank you for the compliment but I am no such official mouthpiece.

I am talking about leveling out the current situation so that we come to the negotiating table as equals, the above are just examples of we need to level out. Do you agree that you will have equal everything? eg if we r unrecognized you become unrecognized as well or the other way around??

You have a new title VP. Not traitor but mouth piece. I hope you are writing all these down. What other words can we think of for "not real Cypriot"?
