Tatar advocates dialogue with acceptance of ‘TRNC Reality’

I suggest that it is up to 'us', everyone of us who is Cypriot; there is no waiting for a Leadership to solve our problem (read: Problem) in Cyprus.

We must ''be'' Cypriot.

Turkish and Greek those of us, not "Greek" and not "Turkish" are not few as "They" would have the world believe. Let's remember even in this dysfunctional state divided as we are, as voters, over decades now 'we' have never once voted overwhelmingly for "Their" candidates.

We must end "Their" hateful enterprise, carefully and lovingly as Cypriots are and should be.

We must seek each other out, we must cross the "Green Line" specifically to trade and exchange socially, and, we must starve the "others" by avoiding such establishments.

We must demonstrate this desire openly and publicly to free ourselves of "This", together as Cypriots unashamed and under the flag that is our Flag, the one "They" treat and have treated as a rag long enough: it too is worth fighting for the Flag of Cyprus because it is 'ours' and rightfully so.

...indeed, i call for ENOSIS, to take back that word from "Them"; giving it a Cypriot meaning.

@ Ocean,

...yes, 'we' seem small when compared to "Them'', and in such a time of change it is hard to imagine that anyone will take care of 'us' but 'us'; hasn't this been the same way of life for Cypriots even before mobility and the Modern Age?

...but let us remember that when it came to these few, they fought back against the Imperialistic notions (read: corruption) that only replaced the Ottoman's in name, and, when so much Hope revolved around the great Principles which were taking shape at the time.

Cyprus gained its independence, EOKA rested. And such a legacy should have been credited to these men but for EOKAB which clung to their "Greekness" as a dogma unfulfilled just like the "Turkishness" which is equally as hateful (and for "Them" just as enduring). What did they do but fail with the coup that ended so quickly because Cypriots, Greeks, to be precise did not support it. "Turkishness" remains, and it too must be exposed by Cypriots. Greek Cypriots and Turkish Cypriots may stand together, against "Them" (again), certainly Turkish Cypriots should not be fighting alone what is 'our' enemy; is it unimaginable?

ENOSIS is a word "They" fear: if it was ever given a Cypriot meaning, if 'we' can overcome our own fear to "be" Cypriot, if 'we' reject the reality "They" offer (and "Their" definition of who and what 'we' are).

...so it is in the Ukraine: it is not a Russian war but a "Russian" war, it is not against "Ukrainians" it is against Ukrainians; this is the Problem. It is a problem that has been used by usurpers for decades now, where "This" must stop.

...the Problem, who remembers the Problem that was originally identified as the Cyprus Problem with the intention to create a perfect political framework which provides for People as Individuals Freedom and as Persons Liberty as well: the opportunity to represent their Goodwill as majorities demonstrating this in Goodfaith providing for the minorities living among them (both as Individuals and as Persons; this is a BBF).

Mr. Tatar is old enough to remember what i am talking about, and i am still hoping that he is a better Statesman.

...indeed, his problem is that he has no equal in Political Representation or Jurisdictionally so that among Cypriot Constituencies his is one among them an equal. Indeed, Cypriots have representation as Cypriots (Individuals) with the Republic (in need of Reform,) and its membership in the EU and UN, committed to Universal Principles and willing to defend them. Yet, I too ask, where is 'the Greek Constituency', why not? Such representation (for/as Persons) it is clear, that this is missing, where as majorities (not only as Individuals) they may each demonstrate (as distinct identities) their Goodwill as Persons toward the minorities living among them.

I suggest Turkey too needs a BBF, and the Ukraine for that matter, because beyond the "Them" there is the 'us'.

...such a notion is not hard to understand but intentions count.

American deterrence, not appeasement, is needed in Cyprus

...very well said.

Cyprus torn as it is, what it does and has done to Cypriots, is not unlike the Ukraine (and in Russia) as it is evolving, having "Ukrainians" and "Russians" who would deny, and who deny with their hateful dogmas such an existence as a Ukrainian or a Russian who are not like "Them". And what about Turkey with its "Turkishness", how it has torn the Turkish People never more divided as they are, this too the problematic symptoms of the same problem which sixty years ago Statesman thought would be easy to solve; the Problem: but intentions count.

...the Problem, who remembers the Problem that was originally identified as the Cyprus Problem with the intention to create a perfect political framework which provides for People as Individuals Freedom and as Persons Liberty as well: the opportunity to represent their Goodwill as majorities demonstrating this in Goodfaith providing for the minorities living among them (both as Individuals and as Persons; this is a BBF).

Picking a "Side" in effect is the worst thing to do, especially since the People who are not "Them" are not few as "They" would have the rest of us believe. Let's remember for example, who has kept the Cypriot identity alive, for decades, even in this most dysfunctional state torn apart, as voters Turkish or Greek they have never given an overwhelming majority to one of "Their" candidates; Cypriots need no defining they exist, and they need help.

...let's also remember who Americans are, if not the founders of the very first BBF; on which 'our' Basic Human Rights have been founded: such a notion as Humanity and the Universal Principles 'we' stand for, all equal.

...indeed, "Americans" exist as well, Patriotic perhaps; but for the few Patriots there "They" may have won on Jan 6. It is something to think about, things having come full circle as it appears, "This" ignorance ignored returning.

The Problem is not so simple to solve, yet it is: Lest we Forget, 'we' should not be fighting each other, there are bigger enemies on which our Hatred is better used such as Hunger and Disease.

Cypriot lives matter.

...indeed, i do not despair because i believe in Putin's wiley nature who like Erdogan stand at the precipice of their own Legacies knowing what the Problem is: to live in infamy (indeed, Putin is facing War Crimes), or, to live in esteem and emulated because along with Mr Zelenskyy a solution is found; this is their (read: his) problem.

...indeed, the very planet itself is stressed by the ambition of men who cannot see the harm in it as plunderers.

Thus the Four Horseman is us. (As a consequence we all suffer.)

...yet, i do not despair because in the Apocalypse is carried the good food to the table when uncovered is the Light that nourishes, to others in that light exposing their wasteful ways.

And as such "These" endtimes are surely among 'us', and they can no longer be ignored.

...i would not take Medvedev seriously, except for his closeness to the Problem; Putin, Erdogan, and Zelenskyy can still save the planet by solving it: it will take a change in intentions.

Let's talk about Canada, the US, and red states....

..."Americans" and Americans, who are the Patriots?

This is the Problem: at the root of it in Cyprus where it should have ended, where it has been left to fester, "these" intentions, as a problem for so long.

..."It" works in Cyprus, in Turkey where "Turkishness" has left its People never more divided, in the Ukraine as it is evolving now torn, and in the USA looking at how Americans had to save themselves from "Americans" that fateful day on January sixth.

What makes America great is it's Constitution, easy to read and easy to understand, defining all Americans as equals and as Individuals Free having Liberty, demonstrating the same respect and trust as Persons nurturing their distinct identities as majorities toward the minorities among them by providing for their special needs as well.

...what is a BBF: it is this, the American political model, for the rest of us on his planet the foundation of the Universal Principles 'We' are prepared to defend.

"Ukrainians", like "Americans", "Turks", "Russians" and "Greeks", question such authority.

...and Lest we Forget there are bigger enemies to fight like Hunger and Disease; not each other.

‘Police did nothing’ as migrants attacked in Limassol’s racist protest

Three comments,

...what is it the Police do, but to Serve and Protect. Even as a mission, Law and Order they have failed; quite remarkable because it is not the first time. In their accountability to themselves i can't imagine they are proud.

...and there you have it: what is a "Greek"; just like the "Turks" who are no different, usurpers, in their hatred for what is not "Them". Yet, i do not despair, they are few, and that Greek and Turkish Cypriots know better.

Cyprus is "Theirs"; i don't think so.
