The disgraceful way in which the fate of the missing is being handled. These things are happening NOW. These are things which need to be addressed NOW as gestures of goodwill. To show the other community that they mean business. Actions speak FAR LOUDER than words.

Actions do indeed speak louder than words. You constanly berate the TC side for not addressing the 'missing persons' problem and claim that the RoC has reveled all the burrial places of the missing. This may be the cased but it is hard to believe it is the case when no one has told my Aunt where here missing husband is burried or evn where he may be burried. From this perspective it does not seem that either side is doing all that it can in this regard.

Do not get me wrong - I would like to see both sides resolve this issue based on a humanitarian appraoch and without any interferance from political angles. I am certainly willing to critise the TC sides actions so far. However given that nothing has changed for my Aunt in over 40 years of not knowing where her husbands remains lay, it is hard to accept that the RoC has done everything it can and the TC side has not. From this personal perspective it is business as usual - ie the missing on both sides are just political pawns and no regard is given to those that suffer from having lost a loved one. If my Aunt had been informed of where her husbands body is or might be then maybe I could accept that the TC side is behaving 'worse' than the GC side in this issue. Withou such information it's hard to see anything other than 'words but no action'.

The RoC has given all the graves it knows of to the UN. Many lie in the occupied areas. Many have not been opened yet so nobody knows where people may be burried until proper DNA testing is done.

The Turks have and are using the fate of the missing very cynically. This is a humanitarian issue. People on both sides want to know what has happened to their loved ones so that they can move on. The longer this issue is manipulated, and the GC's did manipulate this in the past and thankfully they have changed their attitude in recent years, then the better it will be. This is a thorn that has been festering in wounds for far too long. Its about fucking time Turkey realised this and started to show good will on this particular subject instead of trying to hide her wrongdoings.

In your side nobody knows but in Turkish side they know. Weird!

Mikkie, may I ask what logic you see in what you are saying? I'm not being sarcastic, just think about it: why would Turkey refrain from giving out this information, if they knew? I think it's pretty well-known (albeit unproven?) that there have been killings in 74, so I wouldn't say that they are trying to avoid international outcry, right (I might be wrong on this one)?

How do you explain it?

Oh, now because Ayios Ambrosios posted these things is bad?

Insan has posted numerous times articles of Turkish propaganda, and a quick search can prove this. Other TCs did also. (remember Kelebek, who disappeared along with Alasia the day the "multiple personalities" post was made?)

So when TCs post articles trying to prove how bad were the GCs in the past is ok, while when some GCs do it is not ok?
