    A nice piece, but disappointing only the Greek story was told. Why the sorrow of the Greeks is palpable the story, as told, leaves the impression only Greeks suffered lose. Failing to accurately tell the full story of the 1950s and 1960s leading up to the military action leaves the impression only the Turks were at fault. There is no mention of the Greek assaults on Turkish communities resulting in the murder of Turkish civilians by the hands of their Greek neighbors. Left out are realities of that time, with Greece and the Greek Cypriots drifting toward military dictatorship and embracing Soviet theology. Ignored is the American encouragement for division of the island to ensure it never be used as a Soviet base against American and British regional interests. In its isolation, this piece presents yet another greek tragedy with a modern european twist.

      Its always been about the Greeks, nothing about the suffering of the Turkish Cypriots my family lived in Cyprus from 1969 my husband and myself lived in the TRNC for 14yrs and I can tell you hand on heart that the Turkish people suffered such alot,these programs should tell both sides without bias.the reason that the British Government sucks up to the Greeks is because of the British Bases Dekhelia and Akrotari, because if the British sided with the Turkish people the Greeks would demand rent for the Army 🪖 and Air force bases,

      ​@@Pyrrhic537Thank you. Rarely ever positive sentiment regarding Turks is noted in comments. Oppression was at the hands of Greek inhabitants and Greek military upon Turks. Turks as the oppressed had never been in an upper hand position until 1974 when Türkiye installed a permanent 'halt' to killing of Turks. Now a somewhat balance has been achieved, although Turkish population remain under crippling embargoes for any trading with world nations. Regardless, safety of Turks since 1974 has been guaranteed. Not a single person has died as a result.

      You are riight about the situation in the 50's and 60's but what you don't mention is that, this situation ended in 1967 which was the last time there was intercommunal violence on the island. Between 1967 and July 19 , 1974, there was no violence between the 2 communities on the island, Greek and Turkish Cypriots. When Makarios was over thrown, turkish cypriots were not touched. When turkey invaded on July 20th, and attacked Greek Cypriots across the horth of the island, violence between the 2 communities resumed. Please be accurate.

      Turkish Cypriots didn't live in concentration camp's. EOKA suspects and entire GC male villages did and many were tortured by TC policemen working for the British. The EOKA was targeting all British police on the island , GC, TC and British.
      After the TCs murdered 8 Greek Cypriots in the
      Geunyeli massacre then GC attacks on innocent TCs started.
      The worse were in Tochni and Famagusta District in August 1974 after the first Turkish invasion.
      TC lived in Ghettos because their nationalists and Turkey encouraged them ( during intercommunal violence) to leave their villages and live in fortified area's which became overcrowded.

      Turks do not belong where they are today. They belong I'm Mongolia where they came from.
      And what massacre?? From 1st April 1955 till 19th July 1974 less than a thousand Turks died in fights they started yet three times more Greeks were killed. But you regard it as a massacre but murdering 1.5 million armenians you deny its a genocide.
      A typical two faced filthy Turk.
      There a Turks living in greece but where are the Greeks of Turkey??

      Turkey is a genocide country, learn about your history and have a more balanced view. "The Greek Genocide was the mass killings and deportations of Greeks in the Ottoman Empire by Turkish forces. It resulted in the deaths of hundreds of thousands of Greeks, including the extermination of Pontian and Anatolian Greeks, the destruction of Smyrna, and widespread ethnic cleansing in Greek areas of Asia Minor."

      Look end of the day In Cyprus the people were manipulated , the Greeks were led to believe they could not function as a state without Greece hence ENOSIS the Turks did not want to join EOKA A ( yes newsflash EOKA A wanted the Turks with them) because they did not want Enosis. The British and Turkey did all they could to create the divide when before there was no such thing as two communities. Britain forced an unworkable constitution kept 2 bases .
      Today the true Cypriot people have demonstrated they want to unite. In fact I reckon the TC have been more vocal in this than the GC so stop with the perpetual hate.
      The only reason there has not been a solution is that Turkey wants to control the Mediterranean Sea and expand it influence and restart the Ottoman Empire.
      Lets not be blind currently it's stirring the brown stuff and is very excited at the prospect of trouble with Iran and making statements to that effect trying to sound all diplomatic but actually laying the foundations which it may manipulate further depending on how things turnout.

Between 1967 and July 19, 1974, there was peace on the island. No violence. Even when Makarios was overthrown there was no involvement of turkish cypriots.

It's not the whole of Mağusa which has been off limits, its only the closed area of Maraş. People from the south have been able to visit Mağusa since free movement has been allowed as of 23rd April 2003 4. The divided island map has Greek and Turkish flags whereas it should have been ROC and TRNC flags. 5. The Buffer Zone has been around in some form way before 1974. 6. Lefkosa has been divided since way before 1974. 7. What he calls a ' civil war ' was in fact the Greek Cypriots attacks on Turkish Cypriots with the aim of killing all Turkish Cypriots.

      I believe that the vast majority of my countrymen, Greek, and Turkish Cypriots are peace-loving people and support a just solution. The Cypriot people have a remarkable history of peaceful coexistence with mutual respect for their religious and language differences.
      Who caused the Istanbul pogrom started on the evening of Sept. 6, 1955, when mobs took to the streets of Istanbul and raided the Greek, Armenian, and Jewish districts, destroying and looting the non-Muslim places of worship, homes, businesses, cemeteries, and schools? Not the Greek Cypriots or the Turkish Cypriots.
      The Cypriots are the victims of an international conspiracy. The British Army Major Martin Packard OBE wrote "... It came from the way secret operations ( meaning NATO's false flag operations "Gladio") were conducted in the area, and I will talk a little more about that later, especially through the stay-behind organizations, which meant that extremists in both communities were armed through NATO and had special training in assassination and misinformation.

      @@shenosman2897 Once again I refer to Mr. Espen Barth Eide, the former UN General Secretary representative on Cyprus. "That if it was only up to the Cypriots the Cyprus problem would have been solved a long time ago."
      This is why he reached the above conclusion. Only last year, President Erdogan and Devlet Bahceli leader of MHP the Turkish far-right party, and the "Grey Wolves" ruthlessly attacked the then Turkish Cypriot leader Mr. Akinci, "It is clear that Mustafa Akıncı is not worthy of the position he occupies. For this reason, it is inevitable and vital for him to immediately resign from the Presidency and submit to the will of the Turkish Cypriots. Akıncı and his followers should not forget that Cyprus is Turkish was, is, and it will remain Turkish. Under no circumstances will the blood of the martyrs spilled in the Pentadaktylos Mountains be wiped off".
      People are aware of Denktash's admission that Turkish Cypriots placed bombs in order to blame the Greek Cypriots. The Turkish Gen. Sabri Yirmibesoglu also admitted that Turks burned mosques to increase animosity toward Greeks in Cyprus.
      I am an ardent supporter of peace and friendship between the Greek and Turkish people. Back in the 1950s as a young trade unionist, I took part in strikes and demonstrations against the innocent killing of Greek and Turkish Cypriots by both EOKA and TMT.

      Mr. Espen Barth Eide, the former UN General Secretary representative on Cyprus after years of being directly involved in the negotiation concluded "That if it was only up to the Cypriots the Cyprus problem would have been solved a long time ago." According to Dr. William Mallinson, former Member of Her Majesty’s Diplomatic Service "The moment that Britain began thinking of transferring its Middle East headquarters to Cyprus in early 1952, the die for dividing Cyprus was cast. ‘All’s fair in love and war’, as some say, whether cynically or simply realistically. Britain and the US could not afford to countenance a truly independent Cyprus, given their fear of the Soviet Union. It is the same today, just as in the Ukraine, where agents provocateurs abound. One day, there, too, the truth will come out."
      BBC Radio 4's Documentary "UK's murky role in Cyprus crisis".By Jolyon Jenkins Producer, BBC Radio 4's Document
      "Evidence has emerged that British undercover forces were involved in fomenting the conflict between Greek and Turkish Cypriots ten years before the 1974 partition of Cyprus."

YOU stopped recognising your own state in 1963 and you started fighting us from 1955 with the english and in 1964 following Nihat Erim's plan to destroy Cyprus through a bizonal and bicommunal federation. Then you fought as again in 74' when no one was ever hurting you. Some idiots killed 150 of you without command between the 2 Attilas but that was only because you fought with Ottomans against us first!
    Federal Cyprus its Turkey's imperialist and racist plan to devide Cyprus according to nationality and religion to controll all Cyprus through "political equality".
