...very much enjoyed reading this letter.
...i will add, that a Cyprus divided, is a Turkey divided.
Mr. Erdogan cannot escape the facts. If Cyprus is not "Greek", for the same reasons, Turkey is not "Turk", both represent an ethnos, a Citizenship which is Bicommunal, living as Individuals, and a life as Persons. One Turkey, One Cyprus, makes sense, it is not hard to understand, if within Turkey exist Turkish Constituencies.
Indeed the Problem, is Turkey's problem, her National issue, a BBF, Cyprus as its template is not anathema to Erdogan's goals in Turkey for Constitutional reform, though, looking at the USA and Canada, both BBFs, it is intentions that count.
...i ask all the readers to remember, that while in Cyprus "Greeks" and "Turks" exist, their victims for the most part, were not each other. Those who were murdered, or who were made to disappear, the other half as i like to call them, died as Cypriots, for "being" Cypriot. We should not forget, them; now especially would be a betrayal.
Greek Cypriots, have made their compromise, reform, from a Unitary state to that of a Federation: for Cyprus, as Cypriots. Turkish Cypriots may acknowledge such a step to join them; except for "but one", everyone agrees; yet...
There can be no "deal" on Universal Principals; Cyprus matters.
