Our View: Has the UN presence in Cyprus itself become part of the problem?

...the UN is in Cyprus for exactly the same reason that the world supports Ukraine. Here in Cyprus, we the People, suffer its results; the Problem. There in the Ukraine, the People have not been divided yet, but such a solution seems to be inviting. ...who wins if this is the case? Not Humanity, neither the Basic Human Rights 'we' seem to take for granted. They are lost to those with their mythic dogmas at the extremes; yes "Ukrainians" exist, and so too "Russians", no different to the ''Greeks'' and ''Turks'' who in Cyprus have done no better, for (and to) Cypriots. Is there something better, to replace the UN. And the Universal Principles that they defend and represent? (...ask yourselves.) ...a BBF ends such conflicts easily; it is a matter of intentions. It is what people want (in Turkey, in Russia, in Cyprus, (to name a few), and in the Ukraine too); Representation as a State, where there is as Individuals no distinction or discrimination as Citizens, in Freedom equal, and where, that within this State exists as well Constituencies, Persons in Liberty representing themselves as a Majority with the same Goodwill always mindful of the minorities living among them in Good Faith, demonstrating this capacity by providing in their Agenda for these special needs as well. (What is the USA, if not the first BBF?) It is a matter of overcoming our own Ignorance as Mankind, as a Human race, because we should not be fighting each other, Lest we Forget. There are however (like Hunger, Disease, and Plunder), bigger enemies which need the same Hatefulness against them. Indeed, the UN remains in Cyprus to defend Cypriots; because the "Greeks" and "Turks" that live among them have already shown themselves to be no different as murderers in treachery against each other perhaps but most surely against those not like them: (in practical terms) more reasoned, unarmed, and having a civil nature. Cyprus is and has been the cross-road to three continents for millennia; who should "own" it? (...and in the Ukraine; ask yourselves.) Does Solomon in his wisdom tear babies in half? (...who but a "Greek" or a "Turk" would be against their interest (UNFYCYP) in Cyprus; i ask.) The UN is welcome to stay, i say; and until the Problem is ended for 'me': as a Cypriot i am grateful.
