Yes, I know we have that currently, but still, I'm getting a little confused by all this jargon towards reunion.

There’s not a chance of Cyprus losing its status unless Cyprus herself foolishly signs itself away... but that in itself would involve the entire National Council being high on drugs for a week.

Here are all the people Turkey would need to drug simultaneously to achieve her goal... :lol:

I thought they were already smoking the peace pipe.

They have to be taking something to miss out on all the opportunities to internationalize the Cyprus problem. There was an opportunity only a few days ago at the UN when they should have capitalized on Obama's UN GA speech.

And you still participate in this section of the forum???

Yes, because I like to read, and like to learn.

No need to be so rude.


Sorry I didn't mean to :oops:


No problem, not to worry. Not all of us are 'experts'. :P


You are doing just fine! :)

Eroglu gone. Ertug gone. Downer gone.

So when Anastasiades rings Joe Biden for a favour, the Yanks send over their hit woman Ms Nuland to sort it out.


Downer was always planning his exit from the first day he got the job.

He was always earmarked back then as Australia's Ambassador to the US, but was appointed Consul General to the UK instead.

He has moved to bigger and greater things as Australia can use his acumen elsewhere rather than waste away at the UN.

I don't think they will want Russia to come and go as it wishes. :lol:

I bet you didn't know that the US Government is a client to Downer's firm worth several millions. Downer is apparently the go to man for some US and Australian projects in Asia and Europe and that includes Turkey. :lol:

He has resigned from this post for now, and handed over the reigns to a former Greek Macedonian Australian senator.

Because of their cliental relation with their parties. For example, many belong to unions like SEK, PEO, etc... and for other similar reasons. :wink:


Wink? What are you talking about?

The truth... :roll:

Are you saying that Cypriots are more interested in their rusfeti than their country?

Where did this Ottoman mentality among Greeks come into play?
