...I must say, this has caused quite a controversy among "Turks", not just in Cyprus, but in Turkey.

Indeed, Akinci (n.b. not Eroglu) won his Presidency with a clear majority, and this electorate still exists, (silent).

Essentially if such a comment, a wish for Peace and reason, (a reaction to the criticisms he received for remaining silent,) causes such a stir in Turkey, and in the occupied territories in Cyprus, it proves my point, he holds a massive amount of power in his grasp, if, at one point he speaks, not for "Turkishness", but against it, not for "Turkish Cypriots", but for who elected him as a Cypriot, Cypriots who are Turkish.

...it is not hard to say, (all) Cypriots condemn this operation for its violence; this is true.

It is not hard to see that Turkey, at least Erdogan's Turkey, demonstrates no tolerance for diversity among Turks, or of the Turkish People (witness the Kurds at present, witness the Alevi and their relation with the State, witness the state of other constituencies in Turkey like the Greeks and Armenians).

Those not "Turkish", are, the adversary in effect/affect.
