...it is a good day for Cyprus. Cypriots, Turkish Cypriots still represent about half the population in the occupied territories, despite the meddling in their elections by the mythic "motherland" (read: Erdogan).
...who is Akinci, in any case, a Cypriot? He had many chances, from the day he was elected to demonstrate this fact; perhaps they have chosen very wisely.
Indeed, the result was not the one expected; by the numbers Akinci should have won. This demonstrates, to me, even more clearly what is to be done. A Leader of Cypriots, Turkish or Greek, cannot sit on the fence, as Akinci continued to do in face of his isolation by and from those for "Turkishness".
...Turkish Cypriots want some form of self-representation, this much is also clear.
I ask, where are the other Cypriot Constituencies?
Who, as Individuals cannot stand with other Cypriots, for Cyprus, to defend the Universal Principals on which such a notion is based?
...who as Constituencies, as Persons, have needs any different (either)?
If splitting the island in two, is not what Bicommunal and Bizonal mean; what do they mean?
So far, our Leadership has not demonstrated their commitment to finding answers to these questions. This will change because the youth do not see dogma, like "Greekness" or "Turkishness" suitable models, what with their lifestyles and concerns. Only as Cypriots can they enjoy this island Free, to be good stewards toward it.
Only as a People, can Cypriots enjoy the Liberty of nurturing beyond that, as people, their distinct identities.
Tatar, is now the President of a so called country already sullied by its only promoter as an impotent title.
The opposition to it will regroup only stronger, given that the existential threat to Cypriots has increased.
...i am hopeful.
