The war against Cyprus.

...even if Makarios was wrong believing in Enosis, he changed. And if Denktash was more sincere about Cypriots having representation as well, none of "this" would have happened.

As such Anastasiades is failing us, unless he recognises who he is, the representative of all Cypriots as Cypriots, whether the island is (illegally) divided or not. He can have the Flag of Cyprus displayed exclusively when he speaks at official functions, but he does not, for example. He can withdraw from the question of Cypriot Constituencies entirely, so that there is no question as to which hat he wears. A Greek Constituency, representing such a distinct identity may do better at negotiating with Turkish Cypriots, in effect having the same needs from the State. They may even agree unanimously on all their issues, which would be a strong basis on which a Federal Government may Constitutionally speaking reform.

...as it is, Greek Cypriots are left without an effective way to express their own desires, while Cypriots as Cypriots, affectively, have no representation at all.
