Correction - the 'illegally occupied' areas
And you can call it whatever name you want it still won't be recognised
From a personal point of view I prefer the word fostered rather than adopted. Fostered is just looking after something temporarily whereas adopted gives it an air of being officially transfered to another person |
Very true 100 % agree with you. |

| In many posts I have referred to the de-facto political entity existing in the north of the island as the TRNC, and these posts have never been deleted. |

In reality, 'TRNC' is the de facto name for the occupied areas for many people - at least we all understand what is meant by the term.
At times we get a bit carried away with principles; it is merely a nickname, in my view and there are far bigger issues to concern ourselves with. |
