…interesting article, thank-you.

Erdogan cannot afford to see Cyprus divided, I think. A divided Cyprus, means a divided Turkey, if you think about it; because it is a National cause. Peace in Cyprus, as a BBF, where there are choices for Citizens, both as Persons, and as Individuals, is a template for the Constitutional reform, I suggest, Turkey needs. If there is one Flag in Turkey, the Flag of Turkey, then it is the same in Cyprus.

The Problem, is not one of “Greeks” and “Turks” divided, because they are not “Greeks”, and not “Turks”. A Bicommunal way of life is not represented by this debate. Nor are the words, Nation and State, or Freedom and Liberty, or Individual and Person, more clearly identified. Neither does Bizonal mean tearing Countries in two. The USA comes to mind, and Canada, as two successful BBFs (Bizonal Bicommunal Federations) with one Flag under which there is no distinction or discrimination by its Citizenship, of its Citizenship, (except on merit), while diverse as Citizens, one in defending each other as Citizens.

Erdogan in an instant can solve the Cyprus Problem. The same Problem in a “new Turkey” can be solved, with Cyprus, an agreeable solution in Cyprus, as its template.

It is not hard to imagine in Turkey a reciprocal regard for the minorities among the Turkish Constituencies that there are today. It is not hard to expect the Kurds to find in their self-representation as one of many Constituencies, a success, the impetus the other Constituencies may emulate. It is not hard to imagine, at some point in the future, in Turkey, a Turkic Constituency, as well as the Turkish State, therefore; where this, by its electorate, distinct identity, is nurtured. Like in Cyprus, a Cypriot identity, within, identities as Cypriot Constituencies.

...it is hard to believe that for a little bit of land, Turkey cannot show herself generous. It is what the world needs now. It is what Erdogan needs. A Cyprus divided is the worst possible outcome for Turkey; a Cyprus divided, is a Turkey divided.

...the world waits "but one", what is a "new Turkey", an end to the Problem.

...sadly, as an activist, for Cyprus, i must find within me the same grit daily for years, without witnessing something, not much more than a little beyond the point where we were decades ago. I am grateful on the other hand, that Cypriots demonstrate their conviction toward Universal Principals, peacefully. It is a beautiful island, there is no denying it, neither Turkish, neither Syrian, Arab or Israeli, neither English, neither Greek, Cypriot; there is a difference.

indeed, and Lest we Forget.

...real enemies exist, but they are not each other.
