Our View: It is now tantamount to treason to back political equality

Mr. Tatar wants to see "two states" as equals.

Mr. Anastasiades wants equality of all individuals without further discrimination or distinction.

...both are possible, and there are many successful BBFs, including the USA, to demonstrate this fact.

In Cyprus, as in these other States, two levels of Government are needed. Cypriots, all Cypriots having this Identity, as one, as this island's stewards, Individuals who defend the Universal Principals on which it is based, and as its Citizens sovereign over its affairs...

Cypriot Constituencies, within such a Cyprus will, with National Assemblies represent Persons, as a majority which demonstrates toward its minorities the capacity to provide for their special needs as well.

...my question for a long time has been, where is the Greek Constituency?

A Republic exists, needless to say with a Constitution in need of reform.

...where is an equal to a Turkish Constituency; i think is a good question to ask.

Flying the federal flag for Cyprus

Greek or Turkish, let's not forget that half the voting public, over decades, have voted as Cypriots, not as "Greeks" or not as "Turks". Such an identity, being Cypriot, cannot be ignored, but it is, by "them" whose intention is to define what a Cypriot will be, as though such a notion does not exist already.

Soon, i am hoping that "Greekness" like "Turkishness" will be exposed, by Cypriots, for what they are, a hateful mythic reality. Facing this existential threat, Cypriots may demonstrate their own solidarity under the Flag of Cyprus, the one "they" treat like a rag.

...Cypriots may have "Picnics" this summer; beside their Leadership, the People may represent themselves, too.

Representation as an Individual, is Freedom; Representation as Persons, is Liberty: what is a BBF?

...thank-you Mr. Alper.

Tatar: we will table two-state solution at talks

...indeed. I ask, where is the Greek Constituency, among the Cypriot constituencies, an equal in comparison to a Turkish Constituency? Isn't that the question; "two states"?

...indeed. The Republic of Cyprus exists. It's equal are the other States who put Universal Principals first; where, not as Persons, but as Individuals, equal, Citizens are treated without discrimination or distinction.

...isn't that what Cypriots, this island's dwellers, want?

The Person and the Individual, Liberty and Freedom, Nation and State; better defining these words defines the word Bicommunal. Ignoring the notion that Cypriots exist, that only "Greeks" and "Turks", exist is folly; intentions count.

The Cyprob should end how it began, with the constitution

...who remembers the Communal Chamber?

Why have both sides avoided discussing its value, talking Constitutional reform, for so long?

...is this where a solution lies?

What if the President did not involve himself in their affairs as Persons (Sovereignty not the issue) because he as their Leader represents them as Individuals instead?

Having the same needs in effect, could Constituencies come to an agreement, that if presented to the President, he would consider toward this Constitutional reform?

What if there was a Greek Constituency, filling their chairs in such a Chamber?

What if (accordingly,) Turkish Cypriots took their chairs in the Legislature ?

...intentions count.

I am hopeful Mr. Riza, because the People, despite the poor representation they are getting, remain.

...and i am counting on them, when things seem to be going too far, to represent themselves;

Cypriot Lives Matter.
