This is not right. So you say if we open our ports to Cyprus, EU will take us in right away ? I don't think so. They keep delaying us for a long time. And if you ask me, i am not a big fan of EU. I don't think it will change anything in ordinary people's lives anyway. Eu is itself falling apart. All the researches show that European countries which joined EU faced economical fall downs, and raises in unemployement.
About the ports and Cyprus. I wish you didn't bring this up, but you did. So here is what i think. Actually from what i know today, i think that we never should get involved in such a thing. But i can't change history. And i gotta take the responsibility of the things that my elders did. This is not only about what i think. This involves all the nation. We are all thought in schools that in Cyprus, turkish people were being killed by the Cyprus soldiers, who made a strike to take the controll of the Cyprus government. If you look at the history of treaties, the one about the Cyprus says, Cyprus is a free zone, but if situation gets over controll, the countries England, Greece, and Turkey are eligible to interfere with the situation and bring a solution to the problems. So we got there and stopped the fights (as far as i was thought). We also draw a line between two zones, and accomodated turkish people to the northern side. Now i don't say this was the right thing to do. But like is say, what's done is done. I can't change the past.
But the point is, like i said before, it was your responsibility also to interfere the situation in Cyprus. But Greece did nothing. So we all know Cyprus and Greece is the same thing. We are thought that this army strike against the government is being fed by Greece government. While all this happening, Greece just sat and watched what's gonna happen. And this is what happened.
About the ports, you know that recently a poll was made in Cyprus. An "official deciding" poll. And people are asked if they want Cyprus to be whole again ?. Turkish side said "yes". But Greek side said "no" with a big share of votes. And "Greek Cyprus", all alone, is accepted to EU, but northern side is left alone, even none of the world countries has accepted its existance as a country (i don't say that it is a country). Don't get me wrong but, when i look at the picture, i see "Greek people" in Cyprus getting all the goods, but turkish people still suffering, even they voted for "reunion" and greeks didn't.
So as you see, ports are just "a pill to cure an earthquake"
I don't wanna talk about politics anymore, i don't want this subject to get between you and me, or any future greek friends of mine. Cause if we keep bringing up this stuff, we'll be just like our elders and this fight will never end. You know what i mean.
