...more caution is necessary, Cyprus needs its credibility to remain untarnished, the facts speak for themselves, after all, it is for this tiny country to lead, out of an abyss (again), they don't need to provoke pitiful Turkey, Turkey is doing well enough alone.

Agreed.

But not contradicting the Turkish propaganda and not reminding the World continuously of the violations by Turkey of it's obligations under the International Law, not only does not help us but, on the contrary, establishes "status quo" situations and turns the turkish propaganda into widely thought to be "true facts".
For instance, when did we tell the world that it was the Turks who rejected the Annan Plan 2?
When did wee tell the world that the TCs had been invited by the RoC to be attending the negotiations for the admission of CY to the EU but they refused?
What did we do and what do we do when Erdogan and Bagis declare that Turkey will never withdraw it's troops and settlers from CY and that they are continuing the ethnic cleansing tactics and are in fact planning to further increase the turkish population of the Island by importing more settlers?
What harm would it make if we had revealed and promoted internationally the fact that in 2004 the Annan Plan 5 got a NO from 64% of all those who voted added together, GCs AND Turks alike (including settlers)?
Couldn't at least some prominent personalities take it up on a private basis to, let us say, sue Turkey and some of her politicians for ethnic cleansing practices and for crimes against humanity?
