Which ever way we TCs turn the ends of the stick are both shitty. At least this side is how do they say it better the devil you know and have forged strong relations with over the last 46 years, the other side is a unknown, leap into the darkness. (There are even people in the south preparing for war and just a weak moment in time to attack us in our beds)
VP, why both ends of the stick are shitty? Why are the GCs the devil you do not know?
We are willing to offer to your community some very reasonable but much more effective amount of saying and power sharing, and in exchange we want to be able to also equally co-exist (and also call it part of our country,) the northern area (state) of Cyprus, in which you will anyway be the majority if you all choose to remain there; in an independed, sovereign and federal Cyprus.
What you want is to have a 50:50 power sharing and a veto on everything, even through you are only the 18% of Cypriots, and to also become the sole owners of the north area (state) of Cyprus (as if it has always and historically been your country alone,) and also to have Cyprus become a protectorate of Turkey in various forms and shapes; and in exchange you give us a portion of the anyway excessive territory that Turkey occupies illegally, and even this small portion that you give in exchange happens to be the scrappiest territories of the occupied north.
Is this a fair and logical deal you are asking to do with us? No it isn't! What you are asking us amounts to capitulation, and this is why we do not have a solution yet, and not because of the foolish propaganda slogans that you tell everybody internationally, namely that all we want is to dominate you and convert you into an insignificant and powerless minority and which you do not believe even yourselves to be true.
