I am a Greek Cypriot who LIVES and WORKS with the Turkish Cypriots.... I am quite happy I live in the North for the last 8 months. I teach at EMU, I present Greek News at BRT and I also write for Cyprus Times. And YES I can live with the Turkish Cypriots because above all we are all CYPRIOTS! Some tend to forget that!

yes we cannot judge them but we can have opinions everyone has different opinions on this subject i know there are good and bad everywhere but in cyprus the situation is not good and am saying something should be done to let people live in peace

Seen this, fanour? Until institutional racism (on both sides) is erased, Cyprus will continue to have problems between its communities:

its the point of saying if we like turkish cypriots or not, the point is mainly from turkey not giving any help in this situation, people are different it would be a sad world if we were all the same.....

[fanourıo]

How different are you Carleen? richer maybe?

[carleen]

im not rich im not poor but i have my beliefs just like everyone else i have eyes i see whats happeneing in this country and all im saying that it is very sad for what has happened and what is happening still and its a good job not everyone is the same what would the world be like then.....you dont have to sound such a bitter man. its a forum where everyone posts there comments on the situation.

[fanourıo]

nothing truer than that....

[carleen]

im not here to be racist or blame anyone im just telling it how i see it, everyday and everynight i see sadness in many people one day i hope i will see many smiles and sighs of relief.

[sweetie pie]

Some I like some I don't like. Same with other people

The un are here for safety of the southern side, as we never know what the turkish are capable of, i have met good turkish cypriots and have heard of bad turkish cypriots, i am english and being here all these years learning what i have learnt through many sources, as i married a greek cypriot and his uncle is still missing from 1974, i personally do not like the way things are still here after 32 years the turkish should just accept what they done in invading and killing innocent people and children as a bad thing. I know its all political but some countries in this situation should stand tall and just be trueful dont keep hiding information from families who are in despare. I speak probably for thousends of people that in taking half the island was very wrong and the turkish should let the country live in peace.

This is not an opinion but a misrepresentation of the whole story.
