‘We obviously disagree on Cyprus, but only dialogue can be the antidote’

“it is important to reach a fair and permanent solution to the Cyprus problem on the basis of the facts on the island.”; so says Mr. Erdogan.

indeed. But i have to ask, does his reality of this problem, in Cyprus, include Justice; a solution which can be emulated, a solution which makes 'us' better people as a Human race?

...this is the Problem.

Enosis: Erdogan begs us and 'we' remain divided. "Greek", "Turk'', they still hold the Agenda; "They" are the bane to the other half of us Greek and Turkish, but, Cypriot first.

And why not on 'our' streets and on 'our' beaches public demonstrations of our love for this island, "Picnics" together united under the one flag "They" treat (and have treated) as a rag, the Flag of Cyprus.

An end to "Enosis" (and to "Taksim") because 'we' choose to take back the word(s) giving it (read: them) its Cypriot meaning.

Think carefully about what this man is saying, because "They" should not be able to look out their windows or from their cars without seeing 'our' Flag (despite "Theirs''') proudly flown.

...for Turkish Cypriots there is no representation so long as Mr. Tatar chooses to ignore their existence for the benefit of "Turkishness".

And yet he does no favours for his constituency, the "Cypriot Turks" either, having chosen to be belligerent it seems because he is unable to meet and in dialog reasonably present his position successfully.

...such as it is no Cypriot enjoys Freedom (or Liberty) with things as they are; 'our' Individual Rights usurped from us torn apart for a "Greekness" and a "Turkishness" which are no different ignoring what should have been learned by now: there is only one "race", Lest we Forget.

...indeed, it is not hard for me to imagine that Cypriots may gather,
if he goes too far, on their beaches under the flag he chooses to treat as a rag, the Flag of Cyprus, to make souvla together having their own "picnics"; how can that be reasonably opposed by him?

Let's remember that despite what "Turks" and "Greeks" would have you believe, that 'we' are few, the other half (Greek and Turkish), the larger half if you will have never betrayed themselves voting overwhelmingly for one of "Their" candidates.

..."enosis", a Cypriot meaning to this word cannot come too soon.

Turkish Cypriots should not be alone standing in opposition to this man's notions: they threaten all of us.

Turkish Cypriot side hits out on Cyprus’ EU accession (2)

...the British did nothing and the "Turks" passed.

You/"You" call that support, i call that a failure on both their parts.

...what is clear, and fact, is that none of the Guarantors demonstrated the qualities of Integrity and Commitment toward the Universal Principles that as States 'we' expect from them.

(America too, in that regard, is not blameless.)

...let's remember if we were "Turks" and "Greeks", the island would have been divided as such long ago. And/But let's also remember, the voters who have not decided it is so, and, who have never betrayed their Identity as Cypriots Turkish and Greek even once by having voted overwhelmingly for one of "Their" candidates; this too is fact.

Cypriots are not so few that they are easily dismissed, as much as people like you MrH would like to believe, and as much as people like you would like to "be" defining 'us'.

And who are the Cypriots who celebrate their unity today?

Let's not forget the voters; if not for them, decades ago 'we' would have been "Greeks" and "Turks" already. Few as "They" would like the world to think 'we' are, we are many: so says the results even torn apart as we are never once betraying our identity as Cypriot Turkish and Greek voting overwhelmingly for one of "Their" candidates.

...i saw "ENOSIS" on banners yesterday in the streets of Nicosia, Unions together celebrating May Day; something to think about.

And who would be against it if on their beaches Cypriots joined to make souvla together, (something Cypriots do best,) under their flag, the one that "They" treat as a rag and the one rightfully theirs, the Flag of Cyprus.
