Having stumbled here after a Google search for Ikea & Cyprus, I get the feeling that I may be on the wrong forum.

I've recently bought a property in Northern Cyprus (it's got Turkish deeds BTW) and I was looking for furniture options and posted a question in the Ikea thread, only to be attacked by Patheticman.

So, what I'd like to know - with me buying and holidaying in N Cyprus - are my views or questions not welcome here - are most/all people on here Greek Cyprioits ?

FWIW I currently live in the UK, have only visited Cyprus once (which was 2 weeks ago) and I really do have a fat Arse.

If you are looking for Ikea or anything like that in the occupied part of Cyprus then you bought property in the wrong place

But there is nothing to stop you coming over to the South, buying what you want to buy and taking it to the North with you

Hi Hugh

you must understand that for many (most!) Greek Cypriots, foreigners buying land/property in the occupied areas of Cyprus is deeply offensive.
Without getting into the rights and wrongs of the matter - this is the General Chat area - they believe it to be stolen land.

With so little legal land being available for sale (either pre-74 foreign or TC owned) most is/was owned by GC who no longer have access to it.

There is nothing we can do Lana. They will never hand over our land and property.

Don't lose heart,Nicko-mou,
We have to and we will.International law will catch up to those who deal in other people's property and misery.I am not sure we will be here to see it though. :cry:
