🇨🇾 Cyprus divided - 40 years on - Inside Story 

OFFS. One of the very first comments on this programme is about 'the Turkish invasion.' Why is it that no one ever seems to mention the Greek Coup d'etat days before the Turkish invasion?

Thanks for sharing this interviewers from Greek-Cypriot and Turkish-Cypriot point of view, what is going on in the future for that problem that is lasting over 40 years and still the Island is dividing. One party thinks to reunification Cyprus other thinks to stay divide, it is so very complicated the situation on it.

We all live in hope....if we don't solve this issue now......the question is when?..... I know it's going to be very difficult ......but where there's a will here's a way......hope..... Faith....!!!!!

It is great to see people like these three who genuinely want a solution. However, bizonal and bi-comunal solution is not sharing the power. as the names suggest they are bi-zonal. A Cypriot identity on the other hand enables everyone to have shared power one person one vote. Then work on grassroots to enable the minority groups and majoity to gain the trust for each other so that a Turkish speaking Cypriot can ran for President of Cyprus,this may include a period of a four year term.

the Tc commentator or political analysts does not tell the whole story... No one will approve a state of affairs where a minority of 20% has equal political power as the majority of 80%. Furthermore, indoctrinated into this so called solution is the legalization of ethnic cleansing and creating a federal state of Tc, where the lands 80% belong to the Greek cypriots..The Tc also adhere to majority of land and population in a federated state, where they could legally discriminate and segregate Greek cypriots....again another non starter to any serious negotiations...These segregative and apartheid ideals by the TC were instilled back in the 1950's when segragation in the southern states of America was legal and apartheid existed in South Africa.... These are anachronistic ideals and have no place in a modern european state/nation... if i may add all the serious federations including the usa,canada russia germany have democratic institutions, in the federal system including the supreme court and parliaments... what the tc analyst is saying is pure bullshit...

Watch... 1974 cyprus conflict ambiguous differences. Good insight into cypriots on both sides.

There is peace right now. Uniting this Island is asking for trouble again. So let it go!

United we stand divided we fall.....let's move forward....!!!!!

MY OPINION , BRITS ,TURKS , AND GREEKS LEAVE CYPRUS ALONE. LET THE PEOPLE OF CYPRUS UNITE AND LIVE IN PEACE

Occupy? What occupy? Whole Cyprus was ours already. Greeks and other communities were living safely under Ottoman government. 1974 was not an occupy, it was a rightly involvement. We're not quest or visitor here , we're householder. LONG LIVE TRNC

Anybody never mentions from 1963 to 1974 long before Turkish army came to save Turkish Cypriots.Turks lived under the supervision of Greeks and United Nations!! Since 1963 still United Nations still in Cyprus 55 years !!!Two difference Religious two different languages two different cultures,nobody got killed since 1974,its about time we live in peace next to each other,Greeks got %65 of the Cyprus population is 800000 half of the population is foreigners is more than enough land they got !

It is about time North Cyprus was recognised as a country

Greeks have been on the island since 1500bc, turks since 1500 ad. Greeks were 85% of the population before the invasion, is it not obvious who has more claim to it? Where in any democracy can a minority rule a majority? Imagine the Muslims in the UK taking Scotland and saying it's theres. It's the same thing.

I totally agree with CE183, well said! And the other important factor is to STOP calling ourselves Greeks Cypriots and Turkish Cypriots. We are Cypriot Orthodox and Cypriot Muslims once this is established we are definitely going to move on, We are all Cypriots and DON'T belong to either sides. Thank you.

Turkey did never use the word invasion , this is the rhetoric of greek cypriots. Turkey intervened to save the turkish cypriots

Peace in Cyprus !!!!!

Cyprus will never be united but may change into two sided cooperation

A peaceful Refferendom the only solution the elites r ignorant and selfish

Cyprus has always been a Greek speaking area the illegal occupation by the Turks is condemned internationally. The only embassy one can find in Northern Cyprus is the Turkish embassy. Also the airport in Northern Cyprus only has flights from Turkey. It is illegal to enter the island from the occupied side according to the Greek Cypriot laws. When Turks dig into the soil they find Greek archaeological things which are conclusive evidences of the Greek history on the island.

PLEASE search in you tube about" Rauf Denktash's shocking comfession" read and the comments below THE TRUTH IS THERE..

And also delete all the guarantors powers not needed any more they live under a police state civilised with in Europe no mother lands just there language which r two

KIBRIS IS WAS AND WILL ALWAYS BE TURKISH, LONG LIVE TRNC!

Turkey gaves a peace and wellness living to greeks and turks

Cyprus should just leave EU and NATO. UK and US destroyed Cyprus to prevent soviet influence

The Turkish army did the right thing. They should have occupied the whole island.
