@ThePhantom355 You don't believe it? Not just Italian but also Frankish Crusaders are the ancestors of the so-called Turkish Cypriots. There are those who amongst the TC's claim to descend from the Lusignans. Yes. These people were the erstwhile despots of Cyprus, Catholics who were dealt such a heavy blow in Cyprus that they lost their grip on the island, by the Ottomans. The Turks slayed many of their kin, but others begged the Ottomans to stay and converted to Islam. Amongst them were also the Arabic speaking Christian Catholics of lebanon, who were masters on the island along with the Venetians and Crusaders. They outwardly converted to İslam and took up the Turkish language in the 1950s. That's why they are unable to speak proper Turkish (aside from the TC elite).
@@azmhyrSuch wild claims on origins of Turks of Cyprus in history. What is your reference on this? In relation to Turks' speaking different dialect from Turkiye Turkish, this is not different for CypGreeks, speaking Greeks a dialect of Greece!
@alierem4266 First off, there are people among the TC's who claim direct descent from the Lusignans and all pre 1974 TC settlements were Latin settlements. One very prominent settlement is Akıncılar previously known as Lurucina. There's also a crucial lack of sources on Turkish settlement. The Ottomans settled Greeks from Anatolia on the island, but not Turks. Turkish soldiers and civil servants were present but never mixed with the locals and went back whenever they could. Also, prior to 1974 the local TC's were unable to speak Turkish. Their folklore consisted entirely of Greek poetry. Look up chattista. They were ignorant of many aspects of basic Turkish culture and Islamic religion. Pre 1974 all mosques in Cyprus were decrepit and in disrepair, because TC's did not take care of them. Greeks take better care of these buildings, but for TC's the mosque is a symbol of oppression of their catholic past.
Thank you for made n share this informative video documentary to us long live turkiye-cyprus turkiye nation respect to turkiye-cyprus turkiye people too
Two donkeys are fighting on another's home and property. Turan and Venezia are far away from CYPRUS. Imperialists and Nazi continue to steal other's territories and occupy them with settlers...says your leader. Settlers it's crime says Erdogan. But not in his mirror. UN told you to leave from other's homes but you are fascists without respect to any international law. Then you blame Israel for..your crimes
before turks landing, so many turkish civilians murdered by eoka,,and if not that much greek cypriots get murdered too by mücaits,,, after turkish landing and take 40% of cyprus, not one get murdered, if it was not his own fould,,,,,, you like it or not but reality is, the turkish army bring peace to cyprus,,,,,, i know you guys dont like it, and want that iland for you alone,,,,but the turks did best for both, and where we go if everybody want his borders from 1000 years earlier?
this is our iland,,why we leave,,,,ottomans take it from venice and rule it for 300 years, after than ruled 80years by britain,,,,cyprus was never part of greece,,, even the cypriots are origion not original greeks,,they are mixed with arabs and egyptian people,,,, only the reason they speak greek , make that they are take there traditions,,,,, but the iland was never part of greece
@talha-gr6tv Not Enosis as you and most of the Turks probably think. That was a failed plan of the hateful junta that ruled Greece 1967-1974. What the purpose of the peace negotiations from the Greek Cypriot side has been since then, is the reunification of the island as a whole. Autonomous, without any intervention from the Greek or the Turkish side.
@@loukas_gr for us turks the most important was reason that greeks killed turks,,,,, the reality is not that what you want try to believe,,,,, reality is greece want cyprus enosis,they see that it cant happent with turkish civilians there, and start killing people
If there were Germans killed by Polish forces and living in a country were they were facing with being erased from the lands they were living. Then Germany had attacked the Poland and divided it and since than number of people died in the conflict was 0. You would be right.
If England and America had taken some initiative to protect the Cypriot Turks after the Greek coup in Cyprus.Türkiye would not have landed there. They very obviously supported the coups in Greece and then in Cyprus for their own benefit.
As a Turkish Cypriot this video is almost full of propaganda. This video is a shame for our Cypriot brothers and for our unity. Cyprus never will be Hellen or Turkic. Pls just let us rule our lands and not to be divided. 🇨🇾🕊️
The definition of "Propaganda": information or ideas that are spread by an organized group or government to influence people’s opinions, esp. by not giving all the facts or by secretly emphasizing only one way of looking at the facts
The concept and mastery of propaganda originated with the Greeks. They lived under Turkish rule for centuries, preserving their culture throughout this time. However, when given the first opportunity, they mercilessly massacred hundreds of thousands of Turks. In the Balkans and across Anatolia, they brutally killed Turks using torture methods unprecedented in history. Despite living as neighbors with Turks for centuries, they harbored a hidden resentment toward them. When the Turks weakened, they slaughtered their long-time neighbors, including infants in their cradles. These claims are documented and presented by European historians themselves.
@@alexisschiffer4830 what happened was a tragedy happened during the collapse of an empire. Armenians revolted and began killing muslim kurds and turks believing russians would help them to gain their freedom but their revolt failed. All tragic losses happened under these circumstances and they were relocated to southern part of the empire (todays syria). Armenians living in west however, (todays western anatolia) had no problem. Lets remember, Gabriel Noradoungian was FM of the empire between 1912-1913. Anyhow, unlike you guys did, turks never denied armenian's, kurd's and turk's sufferings. At one point, in order to move forward we have to understand history is history and we have to take lessons and somehow have to learn how to live in peace side by side.
4:36 Dentaş never ever said anything like that the one and only thesis of him was TAKSİM, the separation of Turkish and Greek Sectors in the island because he did not believe in harmonious cohabitation of these two communities under the same roof of governance as a unitary state. He asked the help of Turkiye but never would accept an enosis from Turkey.
There is no such thing as a Greek in ancient history, stop telling fake western lies. There were ancient Hellenes such as the Hittites, Lydians, Bithynians, Sumerians, and ancient Egypt and they disappeared. Today's nation called Greece has nothing to do with the ancient Hellenes. This is just a distortion of Anglo-Saxon historians who used the Greeks to steal lands from the Turks.
Your myth is wearing thin. No Greek Cypriots or Turkish Cypriots were involved in the Istanbul Pogrom. Often referred to as the “Kristallnacht in Constantinople,” the pogroms led to the looting or destruction of 71 churches, 41 schools, eight newspapers, more than 4,000 stores, and 2,000 residences in a single night. These attacks resulted in over 30 deaths, 300 injuries, and approximately 400 rapes. The violence was not only aimed at Greeks but also targeted Armenian and Jewish communities. The Turkish government's involvement in these atrocities was part of a broader strategy of ethnic cleansing, aimed at reducing the Greek minority in Istanbul along with other non-Muslim populations. TMT, the Turkish Resistance Organization, deliberately created victims to serve its agenda. Rauf Denktaş himself admitted that these deaths were politically useful. Sevim Ulfet, the sister of one of the victims, testified that when she confronted Denktaş in the hospital, he responded coldly, "These dead people are useful to us. With them, we will make our voice heard in the world." This sentiment has been echoed by Mr. Tatar. Denktash also revealed that two Turkish Cypriots planted a bomb to falsely blame Greek Cypriots. Turkish General Sabri Yirmibeşoğlu admitted that Turkish forces burned mosques to incite hostility towards Greeks in Cyprus. Kutlu Adalı, a Turkish Cypriot journalist and peace advocate, was murdered by the Grey Wolves on July 6, 1996, a clear example of how violence was used to suppress voices for peace. Partition is not achieved when communities live and work together peacefully. It requires terrorism, strife, and mistrust to make people feel unsafe and divided. On May 24, 1958, in a predominantly Turkish Cypriot area of Nicosia, Fazil Ontour was murdered by TMT, which also admitted to the attempted murder of Ahmet Sadin and his wife. Ahmet Giahgia, only 26 years old, was murdered on May 29, 1958, while asleep. On June 30, 1958, TMT terrorists in Limassol killed Ahmet Ibrahim, aged 46, because he supported peaceful coexistence between the two communities. On July 4, 1958, another murder attempt was made against 29-year-old Arif Halousi Parouti in the Limassol marketplace by TMT terrorists. The publishers of 'Cumhuriyet,' lawyers Aihan Mustafa Hikmet and Ahmet Muzaffer Gurkan, were both murdered on the night of April 23, 1962. Similarly, on April 11, 1965, Dervis Kavazoglou, a Turkish Cypriot, and Costas Misiaoulis, a Greek Cypriot, were killed together in their car by members of TMT. Kavazoglou spoke truthfully about the violence: "They have managed to drive the young people of Cyprus, Greeks and Turks, to fight and kill each other. Only yesterday they were working together in workshops, offices, and mines, ploughing the same earth to provide bread for their families. They have created the myth and the lie that it is impossible for the two communities to coexist in peace. They drove 20,000 Turks out of their homes and put them in places like concentration camps, laying the groundwork for partition." Mr. Tatar's demands for "sovereign equality and our equal international status" go against international norms and the EU. Even Turkey, when dealing with its own 22 million Kurdish population, has refused to accept the kind of solution that Tatar demands and has been involved in a decades-long bloody conflict. Erdogan's war against the Kurds has so far cost more than 55,000 Turkish and Kurdish lives.
You twisted the facts: In 1974, invoking its rights as a guarantor power under the 1960 Treaty of Guarantee, Turkey intervened in Cyprus following a Greek-backed coup aimed at annexing the island to Greece. Why? The intervention, which secured 37% of the island, was to protect Turkish Cypriot minorities from potential persecution. While this led to Cyprus’s division and mass displacements, it also established Northern Cyprus, recognized only by Turkey. History demonstrates that powerful alliances often suppress truth and justice, as seen in the 21st-century genocide in Palestine. Nations like Greece, Cyprus, the US, UK, France, Germany, Canada, Australia, and much of the EU are complicit in supporting such acts by the criminal European Zionist settlers despite global condemnation. Ultimately, Turkey’s decisive action in 1974 was a bold and just response.
@UNIPEXOWENI Turkish Cypriots were never entitled to our protection because they are Italian, crusader converts to Islam. The Greeks were morally justified to exterminate them, but they didn't do so, foolishly. The Turkish Cypriots begged Turkey to invade. Now they want Turkey out. So that they can keep the lands that Turkey conquered for them and turn it into a real estate paradise!!

Turkish General Sabri Yirmibesoglu confessed that mosques were burned by Turks to incite hatred against Greeks in Cyprus. Political Murders and Extremism: Journalist and peace advocate Kutlu Adalı was assassinated in 1996 for his work promoting coexistence. Extremists from both Greek Cypriot and Turkish Cypriot communities victimized their own and each other. Examples include the murders of Turkish Cypriots Ahmet Sadin, Fazil Ontour, and others by TMT for supporting peace. Events Leading to Division: The Istanbul pogrom in 1955 was sparked by false claims of a bombing at Atatürk’s birthplace, organized by a Turkish operative. Dervis Kavazoglou, a Turkish Cypriot advocating for unity, spoke against the myth that coexistence was impossible and condemned forced displacement and violence used to push partition. Broader Context: The Turkish government’s handling of the Kurdish issue parallels its role in Cyprus, with suppression of Kurdish identity costing tens of thousands of lives. These events illustrate how terrorism, mistrust, and fear were deliberately fostered to disrupt peaceful coexistence between communities.

in the 1960 agreement there was a chapter mentioning that Greece Uk and Turkey can be given the chance to interfear in any problem in the island which leads to instability but they could do so only to reastablish the constitutional order and balance. in 1974 the turks onveded Cyprus not for reastablish the constitutional order and balance but to divide the island .. that is the reason they never left Cyprus..

Not dissimilar to dreams of obe day(!) reclaiming İstanbul. Logic has it that Türkiye will never aceed to Greece Cyprus to prevail & same will go for İstanbul.
It's an interesting narrative from the Turkish side that an Island that had almost 80% Greek population and decided after been traditionally close to the Greek culture and civilization for centuries to unite with the main mother country, an island which only reason of a 15% muslim population was that those were people that used to live in the Island from the Ottoman Empire's time so leftovers of an occupation, how mental to think that Turkish invaded the Island again in order to protect a 15% population who lived around a dominant christian majority, apart from which they are still Occupying illegally the northern part creating a country that no serious country recognises! Why the Turkish occupation forces are still in the island and why they keep sending new uneducated muslim settlers from Turkey? Obviously to make their illegal and unethical occupation a de facto situation where the international community wont be able to give permission for future deportation of the Turkish newcomers who are supported by the occupation forces but will have to accept the Turkish influence in the Island

Is an algebra equation. This equation 'x is from Turkey. But the Mediterrenean problem is a proof question from the 2nd Degree Stirling Numbers Multinomial Proof"... And whatever you do, the result is being TURKEY...
Of course, this is the story of the Turkish side. As in all stories, there are multiple versions each and everyone presenting the version that best serves their interests. The fact remains that the island is divided by force of arms. Former friends and even relatives turned against each other, due to their naivety, lack of realism, and comprehension of the dynamics of the geostratical implications of the powers involved in the region. As the narration says Turkey was reluctant to get involved when the issue was brought before the UN so Greece was. The narration goes on to say EOKA was targeting Turkish Cypriots which is false. EOKA was targeting the British occupation forces and the collaborators Greeks and/or Turkish Cypriots. All in all an unbiased conclusion can not be reached listening to only one sided story. Examining the Cyprus problem one can not avoid immersing oneself in the passions of the era and getting lost in the myriad and in many cases immaterial details. However, one can dismiss the reality that Cyprus and its people (no matter who they are) are hostages of the geostrategic location of the island. As the British PM McMillan once said, " Cyprus can never be fully independent". Along this line without much work of the brain cells, Cyprus can never be left in the hands of anyone who can potentially threaten the interests of the powers controlling the region. This excludes both Turkey and Greece. But! And here is the big BUT. The present situation of constant friction between Turkey and Greece serves the interests of the aforementioned powers controlling or aspiring to control the region. Friction on the unsinkable air carrier (as the Americans said) does not serve the best interests of the Cypriots, Greeks, and Turks alike.
The whole situation was caused by the fascist greek colonels and all we europeans must be extremely grateful to Turkey to preserve freedom on the island in 1974. Now the times are mature to let the Cyprus people to be ruled by themselves, without any influence from Turkey and especially from Greece, with automatic membership in European Union. Let them be on their own.
@@pedro190606 Turkish Cypriots were not always called Turkish Cypriots. Previously they were known under a different name, but originally they were called "Venetians", and built the magnificent structures on the island, including the citadel, the large cathedral, and most of the historical buildings around this accursed island. Having invested so much in it, they were loathe to leave it all behind. Most of them were slaughtered and many were exiled back to Venice, but a minority remained on the island and outwardly converted to Islam in order to preserve their high status. This went on, and many of the Arabic speaking Catholics they imported from Lebanon to be their footstools also converted to Islam and these Catholics, these remnants of the Crusaders, turned towards the Ottoman Empire. Being converts of convenience, Greeks hated them, Turks did not trust them, and so, they became poorer than the Greeks, but could not reconvert to Catholicism because that meant certain death for them. Therefore, when the British came to the Island, these crypto-catholics became ecstatic. As Catholicism had little sway on the island, except for marginal numbers of Maronites, many of them converted to Orthodoxy and joined the Greeks, but at some point the Greek Church had it with these two faced snakes. Those who couldn't reconvert as having being rejected by the Orthodox church, retained their superficial islamic association, and worked closely with the British, as they did with the Ottomans, prior. As they were nominally indistinguishable from Orthodox Greeks, as they often masqueraded as Orthodox Greeks to avoid conscription by the Ottomans, they needed a new identity.
@@pedro190606 But "Muslim" as an identity was not enough, because it was simply not true, they were not Muslim, they did not pray, nor did they have the slightest knowledge of Muslim rituals. So they begged the British to allow them to masquerade as Turks. So the British sent for teachers from Turkey, who arrived in 1950, and taught these crypto-catholics Turkish. Many of them also went to Turkey to study there, and came back with ideas that allowed them to more efficiently fool Turkey, they spread word of a mysterious Turkish element, unknown to the Turks in Turkey, in Cyprus. Most Turks never even heard of Cyprus until then. Than, Turkey, which, back then, did not wish to involve itself in matters outside of her borders, was forcibly tied to these liars, who called themselves Turkish Cypriots now. We were forced to become their guarantors in a state where the Greeks were bereft of their God given right to unite with Greece. The Turkish Cypriots, then became equals with the Greek Cypriots, equal vote with the Greeks meant they could veto whatever they wanted. Eventually the Greeks had it with their crap. Then the Turkish Cypriots began attacking the Greeks, and spread lies of death and fear, eventually our public, with their bleeding heart, protested that Turkey should save our brethren on Cyprus. The Turkish Cypriots regularly cajoled Turkey to invade, and they began ripping us off of weapons.
@@pedro190606 Lastly, when the Greek junta took over, they had their chance. The first invasion was based on a shaky legal ground (even though the treaty of guarantee never mentions military action, mind you), the second was not. But it was the TC's who demanded the second, so they could steal the rich, northern lands from the Greeks. Now they sit on those lands, and will become rich beyond measure once it gets integrated into the RoC. They will benefit from massive investment, and handouts, they will bleed the EU and the Greeks dry. They orchestrated the entire event, and they stand to gain from the most of it! The Greeks will always lose, the TC's will, whatever happens, always gain. And you look for the person who stands to benefit.
It even halted fighting among Greeks from Greece and Cypriot Greeks who were very far viz-a-viz on major political aims and hopes for outcome to serve own ends.

@ThePhantom355
You don't believe it?
Not just Italian but also Frankish Crusaders are the ancestors of the so-called Turkish Cypriots. There are those who amongst the TC's claim to descend from the Lusignans.
Yes. These people were the erstwhile despots of Cyprus, Catholics who were dealt such a heavy blow in Cyprus that they lost their grip on the island, by the Ottomans. The Turks slayed many of their kin, but others begged the Ottomans to stay and converted to Islam. Amongst them were also the Arabic speaking Christian Catholics of lebanon, who were masters on the island along with the Venetians and Crusaders. They outwardly converted to İslam and took up the Turkish language in the 1950s. That's why they are unable to speak proper Turkish (aside from the TC elite).
@@azmhyrSuch wild claims on origins of Turks of Cyprus in history.
What is your reference on this?
In relation to Turks' speaking different dialect from Turkiye Turkish, this is not different for CypGreeks, speaking Greeks a dialect of Greece!
@alierem4266
First off, there are people among the TC's who claim direct descent from the Lusignans and all pre 1974 TC settlements were Latin settlements. One very prominent settlement is Akıncılar previously known as Lurucina. There's also a crucial lack of sources on Turkish settlement. The Ottomans settled Greeks from Anatolia on the island, but not Turks. Turkish soldiers and civil servants were present but never mixed with the locals and went back whenever they could.
Also, prior to 1974 the local TC's were unable to speak Turkish. Their folklore consisted entirely of Greek poetry. Look up chattista. They were ignorant of many aspects of basic Turkish culture and Islamic religion. Pre 1974 all mosques in Cyprus were decrepit and in disrepair, because TC's did not take care of them. Greeks take better care of these buildings, but for TC's the mosque is a symbol of oppression of their catholic past.

this is our iland,,why we leave,,,,ottomans take it from venice and rule it for 300 years, after than ruled 80years by britain,,,,cyprus was never part of greece,,, even the cypriots are origion not original greeks,,they are mixed with arabs and egyptian people,,,, only the reason they speak greek , make that they are take there traditions,,,,, but the iland was never part of greece

The definition of "Propaganda": information or ideas that are spread by an organized group or government to influence people’s opinions, esp. by not giving all the facts or by secretly emphasizing only one way of looking at the facts
The concept and mastery of propaganda originated with the Greeks. They lived under Turkish rule for centuries, preserving their culture throughout this time. However, when given the first opportunity, they mercilessly massacred hundreds of thousands of Turks. In the Balkans and across Anatolia, they brutally killed Turks using torture methods unprecedented in history. Despite living as neighbors with Turks for centuries, they harbored a hidden resentment toward them. When the Turks weakened, they slaughtered their long-time neighbors, including infants in their cradles. These claims are documented and presented by European historians themselves.
Barbar greek
THERE WERE NO TURKS IN CYPRUS UP TO 1958. ONLY GREEK CHRISTIANS AND GREEK MUSLIMS .
Greeks and greek cypriots are so upset that they couldn't "clean" the island. They are still crying.
Womp womp.
So how do you feel about the Armenians in WW1? Turkish Cypriots aren’t perfect either.
@@alexisschiffer4830 what happened was a tragedy happened during the collapse of an empire. Armenians revolted and began killing muslim kurds and turks believing russians would help them to gain their freedom but their revolt failed. All tragic losses happened under these circumstances and they were relocated to southern part of the empire (todays syria). Armenians living in west however, (todays western anatolia) had no problem. Lets remember, Gabriel Noradoungian was FM of the empire between 1912-1913. Anyhow, unlike you guys did, turks never denied armenian's, kurd's and turk's sufferings. At one point, in order to move forward we have to understand history is history and we have to take lessons and somehow have to learn how to live in peace side by side.
Turkish operation caused some benefits for Greeks as well, 1) Millitary junta collapsed in mainland Greece and 2) Macarious returned.

He asked the help of Turkiye but never would accept an enosis from Turkey.
There is no such thing as a Greek in ancient history, stop telling fake western lies. There were ancient Hellenes such as the Hittites, Lydians, Bithynians, Sumerians, and ancient Egypt and they disappeared. Today's nation called Greece has nothing to do with the ancient Hellenes. This is just a distortion of Anglo-Saxon historians who used the Greeks to steal lands from the Turks.
😂😂😂
True that
You have no idea of history my friend
Wake up from your brainwash
Haters
Please offer us some of that nice stuff of yours you put in your loula and smoke.
Your myth is wearing thin. No Greek Cypriots or Turkish Cypriots were involved in the Istanbul Pogrom. Often referred to as the “Kristallnacht in Constantinople,” the pogroms led to the looting or destruction of 71 churches, 41 schools, eight newspapers, more than 4,000 stores, and 2,000 residences in a single night. These attacks resulted in over 30 deaths, 300 injuries, and approximately 400 rapes. The violence was not only aimed at Greeks but also targeted Armenian and Jewish communities. The Turkish government's involvement in these atrocities was part of a broader strategy of ethnic cleansing, aimed at reducing the Greek minority in Istanbul along with other non-Muslim populations.
TMT, the Turkish Resistance Organization, deliberately created victims to serve its agenda. Rauf Denktaş himself admitted that these deaths were politically useful. Sevim Ulfet, the sister of one of the victims, testified that when she confronted Denktaş in the hospital, he responded coldly, "These dead people are useful to us. With them, we will make our voice heard in the world." This sentiment has been echoed by Mr. Tatar.
Denktash also revealed that two Turkish Cypriots planted a bomb to falsely blame Greek Cypriots. Turkish General Sabri Yirmibeşoğlu admitted that Turkish forces burned mosques to incite hostility towards Greeks in Cyprus. Kutlu Adalı, a Turkish Cypriot journalist and peace advocate, was murdered by the Grey Wolves on July 6, 1996, a clear example of how violence was used to suppress voices for peace.
Partition is not achieved when communities live and work together peacefully. It requires terrorism, strife, and mistrust to make people feel unsafe and divided. On May 24, 1958, in a predominantly Turkish Cypriot area of Nicosia, Fazil Ontour was murdered by TMT, which also admitted to the attempted murder of Ahmet Sadin and his wife.
Ahmet Giahgia, only 26 years old, was murdered on May 29, 1958, while asleep. On June 30, 1958, TMT terrorists in Limassol killed Ahmet Ibrahim, aged 46, because he supported peaceful coexistence between the two communities. On July 4, 1958, another murder attempt was made against 29-year-old Arif Halousi Parouti in the Limassol marketplace by TMT terrorists.
The publishers of 'Cumhuriyet,' lawyers Aihan Mustafa Hikmet and Ahmet Muzaffer Gurkan, were both murdered on the night of April 23, 1962. Similarly, on April 11, 1965, Dervis Kavazoglou, a Turkish Cypriot, and Costas Misiaoulis, a Greek Cypriot, were killed together in their car by members of TMT. Kavazoglou spoke truthfully about the violence:
"They have managed to drive the young people of Cyprus, Greeks and Turks, to fight and kill each other. Only yesterday they were working together in workshops, offices, and mines, ploughing the same earth to provide bread for their families. They have created the myth and the lie that it is impossible for the two communities to coexist in peace. They drove 20,000 Turks out of their homes and put them in places like concentration camps, laying the groundwork for partition."
Mr. Tatar's demands for "sovereign equality and our equal international status" go against international norms and the EU. Even Turkey, when dealing with its own 22 million Kurdish population, has refused to accept the kind of solution that Tatar demands and has been involved in a decades-long bloody conflict. Erdogan's war against the Kurds has so far cost more than 55,000 Turkish and Kurdish lives.
Turkish Cypriots are at fault.
You twisted the facts: In 1974, invoking its rights as a guarantor power under the 1960 Treaty of Guarantee, Turkey intervened in Cyprus following a Greek-backed coup aimed at annexing the island to Greece. Why? The intervention, which secured 37% of the island, was to protect Turkish Cypriot minorities from potential persecution. While this led to Cyprus’s division and mass displacements, it also established Northern Cyprus, recognized only by Turkey. History demonstrates that powerful alliances often suppress truth and justice, as seen in the 21st-century genocide in Palestine. Nations like Greece, Cyprus, the US, UK, France, Germany, Canada, Australia, and much of the EU are complicit in supporting such acts by the criminal European Zionist settlers despite global condemnation. Ultimately, Turkey’s decisive action in 1974 was a bold and just response.

Turkish Cypriots were never entitled to our protection because they are Italian, crusader converts to Islam. The Greeks were morally justified to exterminate them, but they didn't do so, foolishly.

The Turkish government’s handling of the Kurdish issue parallels its role in Cyprus, with suppression of Kurdish identity costing tens of thousands of lives.

However, one can dismiss the reality that Cyprus and its people (no matter who they are) are hostages of the geostrategic location of the island.
As the British PM McMillan once said, " Cyprus can never be fully independent". Along this line without much work of the brain cells, Cyprus can never be left in the hands of anyone who can potentially threaten the interests of the powers controlling the region. This excludes both Turkey and Greece.
But! And here is the big BUT. The present situation of constant friction between Turkey and Greece serves the interests of the aforementioned powers controlling or aspiring to control the region. Friction on the unsinkable air carrier (as the Americans said) does not serve the best interests of the Cypriots, Greeks, and Turks alike.
The whole situation was caused by the fascist greek colonels and all we europeans must be extremely grateful to Turkey to preserve freedom on the island in 1974. Now the times are mature to let the Cyprus people to be ruled by themselves, without any influence from Turkey and especially from Greece, with automatic membership in European Union. Let them be on their own.
No it was caused by Turkish Cypriots
@azmhyr thank you for the answer. Can you please explain how ? Maybe you can help me to understand better, thank you.

Turkish Cypriots were not always called Turkish Cypriots. Previously they were known under a different name, but originally they were called "Venetians", and built the magnificent structures on the island, including the citadel, the large cathedral, and most of the historical buildings around this accursed island.
Having invested so much in it, they were loathe to leave it all behind. Most of them were slaughtered and many were exiled back to Venice, but a minority remained on the island and outwardly converted to Islam in order to preserve their high status.
This went on, and many of the Arabic speaking Catholics they imported from Lebanon to be their footstools also converted to Islam and these Catholics, these remnants of the Crusaders, turned towards the Ottoman Empire. Being converts of convenience, Greeks hated them, Turks did not trust them, and so, they became poorer than the Greeks, but could not reconvert to Catholicism because that meant certain death for them.
Therefore, when the British came to the Island, these crypto-catholics became ecstatic. As Catholicism had little sway on the island, except for marginal numbers of Maronites, many of them converted to Orthodoxy and joined the Greeks, but at some point the Greek Church had it with these two faced snakes. Those who couldn't reconvert as having being rejected by the Orthodox church, retained their superficial islamic association, and worked closely with the British, as they did with the Ottomans, prior. As they were nominally indistinguishable from Orthodox Greeks, as they often masqueraded as Orthodox Greeks to avoid conscription by the Ottomans, they needed a new identity.
@@pedro190606
But "Muslim" as an identity was not enough, because it was simply not true, they were not Muslim, they did not pray, nor did they have the slightest knowledge of Muslim rituals. So they begged the British to allow them to masquerade as Turks. So the British sent for teachers from Turkey, who arrived in 1950, and taught these crypto-catholics Turkish. Many of them also went to Turkey to study there, and came back with ideas that allowed them to more efficiently fool Turkey, they spread word of a mysterious Turkish element, unknown to the Turks in Turkey, in Cyprus. Most Turks never even heard of Cyprus until then.
Than, Turkey, which, back then, did not wish to involve itself in matters outside of her borders, was forcibly tied to these liars, who called themselves Turkish Cypriots now. We were forced to become their guarantors in a state where the Greeks were bereft of their God given right to unite with Greece. The Turkish Cypriots, then became equals with the Greek Cypriots, equal vote with the Greeks meant they could veto whatever they wanted. Eventually the Greeks had it with their crap.
Then the Turkish Cypriots began attacking the Greeks, and spread lies of death and fear, eventually our public, with their bleeding heart, protested that Turkey should save our brethren on Cyprus. The Turkish Cypriots regularly cajoled Turkey to invade, and they began ripping us off of weapons.
@@pedro190606
Lastly, when the Greek junta took over, they had their chance. The first invasion was based on a shaky legal ground (even though the treaty of guarantee never mentions military action, mind you), the second was not. But it was the TC's who demanded the second, so they could steal the rich, northern lands from the Greeks. Now they sit on those lands, and will become rich beyond measure once it gets integrated into the RoC. They will benefit from massive investment, and handouts, they will bleed the EU and the Greeks dry.
They orchestrated the entire event, and they stand to gain from the most of it! The Greeks will always lose, the TC's will, whatever happens, always gain.
And you look for the person who stands to benefit.

Peace?? Really, peace dear friends? You really believe these atrocities brought...peace? No shame
It even halted fighting among Greeks from Greece and Cypriot Greeks who were very far viz-a-viz on major political aims and hopes for outcome to serve own ends.
Truth hurts, ha!

TRT once again spreading Turkish propaganda
Cry. Cyprus was 400 years of the ottoman empire. Before that it was of the byzantine empire.
Maybe it did bring peace but you took the piss with your land grab.
It’s been turkeys goal to take over the entire island, bad things did happened on both sides but ultimately turkey created pretext to invade. turkey is good at propaganda
🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷
Cyprus IS and WILL ALWAYS BE GREEK! FIRST PEOPLE ON THIS ISLAND WERE GREEKS. "turks" you cannot change the history!
This exactly why Turkish soldiers never leave the cyprus. Tried to commit a genocide and failed. Never accepted Turks in the island as equal. Doing the same things to Turks in Greece. Greece still doesn't accept that they are Turkish and claims they are muslim greeks.
@@mustafacoban6382 You can say all you want but still you cannot change history. Cyprus IS GREEK!
@@alexpaps7682 nope douchebag, its Turkish and greek cypriot
The Ottomans defeated the Venetians and conquered Cyprus. All of Cyprus belongs to Turkiye. The British moved the Greeks to the island starting from the 1900s and took the lands of the Turks.
@@bodoslama3567 Cyprus was settled by Mycenaean Greeks in two waves in the 2nd millennium BC! This is HISTORY. Your facts is from 1570 AD! CYPRUS IS GREEK!!!!!
Ask any turkocypriot (not the ones that erdogan brought from turkey) if it was better before or after the invasion.
That's true not many actualy Turk Cypriots life there moste is population of Turks tranvered from main land .
The turkish army had to liberate 50% of cyprus territory from greek invaders.
😂 Turks are so funny it was a special operation not an invasion 😂
50 years later … why doesn’t any one recognise us as a country 🤔?

Pezavengi. Typical propaganda history from a genocidal nation. There is world history then there is alternative Turkish history. The things you will believe are laughable.
With this reasoning then the island belongs to the venetians.
Then why does history teach us that the Greeks where first
