hate?? not at all. Very proud to be Greek Cypriot.

This and one or two other reasons is why I could never understand the Cypriots wish of a union with Greece.

Of course I'm proud of my Greek Heritage, just as much as I am proud of my Cypriot heritage...I am of course a Cypriot first and foremost, but also Greek, and as I said I'm very proud of that!
And of course I don't hate Greece, I visited recently and thought that it was a beautiful country, and we met many nice people, who treated us as though we'd been friends for years...there was a certain familiarity I felt when I went, the same familiarity I felt when I visited the North of Cyprus and met many Turkish Cypriots...(Who also treated us as though we were old friends...)
