Dear Chris and Margaret,
I follow your articles and others printed on your cyprusscene page and it is very refreshing to see an English couple who 
have discovered the TRUTH of the Cyprus issue between Greek and Turkish Cypriots.
And how the Greek side with the help of other nations have managed to put the Cypriot Turks into an open prison for over half a century I think these countries that spoiled the Hellenic nation of Greece and the always conniving Cypriot, so called, State that managed to graduate from the highest school of liars way back in 1950 under the guidance of Makarios, the Archbishop of the Orthodox Church who decided to unite Cyprus with Greece.
He had no thoughts for the 35% Turkish Cypriot population and so he called in Grivas a murdering General from Greece who formed a terrorist organisation called EOKA with a bunch of killers to help him and anybody who objected to Enosis, he had them killed.
Those people who were killed for objecting to the move for Enosis were Cypriot Greeks and Turks and English as well and so many Turkish Cypriots emigrated and their properties were requisitioned so they could never come back and the Turkish population has diminished to its present low numbers. I too had to leave my homeland in 1956 and there were also two attempts on my own life, one in Cyprus and later one in London.
The last Greek attempt to annihilate the Turks or force them out of Cyprus was stopped by Turkey who as a guarantor power intervened in 1974 and the Turkish Cypriots have been able to live in peace and make a future for themselves despite being disadvantaged by embargoes and being unrecognised.
With the help of the EU, the Greek Cypriots are trying to push Turkey out of future involvement as a guarantor power so they can achieve their objective and the EU, UN and others are still not aware of the lies and crocodile tears of the Greek Cypriots as they manage to convince everybody that the Turks and Turkish Cypriots are all to blame for the tragedy of the Cyprus Issue. The Greek Cypriots have always laid the blame for the Cyprus issue on the Turkish Cypriots and Turkey and don’t seem to accept anything that happened prior to 1974 when Turkey intervened to stop the slaughter of the Turkish Cypriots.
On the 16th February 2017 we have seen angry Greek Cypriot Leader, Nikos Anastasiades, walking out of the Leaders meeting saying “I have nothing else to say” according to Turkish Cypriot President Akinci when the UN Secretary General’s Special Advisor, Espen Barth Eide tried to wrap up the discussion.
The Greek Cypriots are adamant that they will destroy the Turkish Cypriot nation even though they are destroying themselves with their lies, lies and yet more lies.
Well done Mr John Aziz Kent for for simply speaking and pointing out the TRUTH about the GCs Propanganda together with the rest of the Western World and specially the EU. I hope from now on we will be able to speak out and most importantly BE HEARD!!! Thank you!!!
Well said Mr a Kent. The world only sees one side. I just wish Turkish Cypriots would tell their story, many people think Cyprus is completely the a Republic of a Cyprus very few no of the TRNC. It is so frustrating as an expat to read all the lies, misinformation and downright nastiness that the world, incredibly, believes. I hope that someone has the guts to say enough is enough and all the “jollies” stop and we become legally separated.
Please Turkish Cypriots speak out as the Greek Cypriots do
I totally agree with Jane, now is the time for this nonsense to stop the south have no intention of compromising, so get legally separated once and for all.
The world seems to only listen to the lies and delusions of the Greek Cypriots side , they even believe their own lies , anyone with a brain ,would realize who the villiains are in this story .
Look, The ordinary man or women might not know what went on but the people in charge, all the politicians in Europe know what went on but chose not to believe it. They admitted the so called Greek Cypriot government into Europe knowing that The Turkish minority would be left out. So Greeks will never want a settlement, why should they, they don’t want to share the money they receive from Europe.
So really we are better off without them .
My father worked near the British Library in London and he used to go in there regularly, everything about Cyprus was in the original documents at the British library.
I think the truth definately needs to be told by the Turks and Turkish Cypriots.
Thanks, John Aziz Kent for the excellent summary of Cyprob. It is so simple. However, the UN and EU believes what and who ıt wants to believe. LIERS and CHEATS. You have been a warrior all your life John Aziz and Cyprıot Turkish community wıthın and abroad appreciates your contribution keep trooping on mate.
Thank you John Aziz Kent for the article…..All so very true & it is time for the world to wake up & see the truth. The Greek Cypriots are entirely to blame for tragic situation imposed on the Turkish Cypriots….starting with their ludicrous & self interested dream of Enosis. Surely the powers in the world must see what a murderous & blood thirsty organisation EOKA was….but the Turkish Cypriot people must now speak up & put the reco
rd straight
Totally truth,so if the Greek-Cypriots get to control the north side, they will sell-destroy-it all, man they haven’t even got it back, and there selling land already,so how can you trust the Greek side to take care of the Turkish-Cypriots. I hope it stays under Turkish Cypriot control, I visit all the time,the north looks more like true Cyprus.
