The British portraying themselves as mediators and peacekeepers after occupying the land, creating the problem in the first place 🤣🤣🤣
You are right..They had a deal in place with Turkish Government to split the island into two sectors without disturbing the British air basis. The agreement was Turks were to occupy upto 33% of the island same percentage as the Turkish population in the island but they ended up with 38 %..British agents were the ones wento villages and caused panic amongst the Greeks and they fled their homes with fear of Turks to come and kill them. In fact it made it easy for Turkey to just occupy the land with no resistance.
US government also backed up the operation by Henry Kissinger the US Minister as the main guy to deal with it.
lnr243 Yes, it’s an accepted from of western sypremacists terrorism and specialism in stirring up hatred between neighbouring nation! Pure evil.
A de facto new Ottoman invasion ...... and no-one gave a damn. 😟😕😒
@@lnr243 Actually the Turkish population on the island in 1974 was only 18%
@@panostheodoulou1166 In 1961 they were 1/3 til Your Ancestors began Shooting, Killing them and Forcing them out to emigrate.
Why don't Greeks ever sit down and accept at least some of the blame if not most of them instead of blaming others All the time Primitively.
If something happens it happens due to both parties involved are at fault.
In Greeks case they were misled by Greece and Military Government with their stupid dream of Enosis.
Grivas the Terrorist with his EOKA then EOKA-B and Makarios the alleged Religious leader and the President who allowed all the killings,Torture and every single act of Despotism by Greek Cypriots and those believed in them ,followed their ideology and Idiocy of Enosis were at Fault.
Turkey and The UK did a secret deal without even a knowledge of Greek Junta and Generals. I still think Nikos Samson was an Agent for the UK intelligence and helped Turkeys cause to invade the island.
So sad to see this beautiful land look so empty. I pray one day the Greeks and Turks can live together and start again. ❤❤❤
From the things that I read, even the youth are still poisoned and hate abounds. I would have flattened the land to make a point but I guess leaving it the way it is, you would hope they could grow from it. Leave it up and let the hatred burn, those people need to learn.
IndyKurt those people? You think we asked to be invaded? The British and the Americans ordered and supported turkey in doing so. This evil act has been planned out by the great powers wanting to divide Cyprus and take hold on the island.
NO.
You live with the Turks together embracing each other.
We had enough.
Very interesting. I am English. I used to play on the beach before the war. The sea was polluted at the time because of excess tourism (I've seen the same pollution in Ayia Napa). The sun would vanish behind the high rise hotels at 3.00. I have just spent two weeks in Cyprus and stood on the beach again, this time outside the luxury Palm Beach hotel. I then drove along the length of the road bordering the 'ghost town'. While the buildings could have been saved in the 1980s - 1990s, everything now looks beyond repair. I hope a settlement is agreed soon. I hope people find peace and receive compensation for what they lost. I also hope that, whoever has the opportunity to rebuild the town, does so without allowing it to become an over-populated tourist resort...
Well I come from future and last week after 48 years Turkish Cypriot government decided to open it up and rebuild it!

So why do Turks whine so much about so called injustices to the supposedly dispossessed Arabs in Gaza and judea and Samaria when they've done exactly the same thing to the Greeks on Cyprus. He who is without sin may cast the first stone.
+Damremont18 You are Mistaken. Read Trapped in the Green Line by (Greek Cypriot) Tony Angastiniotis and The Genicide files. . Your statement above is nothing but Greek Propaganda. The Turks in Northern Cyprus are TURKISH CYPRIOTS not Turkish people.
+Catherine Meddes ... some are Turkish Cypriots but most were brought over from the mainland post 74. The Turkish Cypriot very much the minority as they were before...
+Catherine Meddes Catherine, please stop lying. As Michelle has stated, most of the Turks in the north are Anatolian's shipped over by the Turks. The U.N., the EU, Amnesty International, and every other world-wide organization has condemned the invasion and the continued occupation of Cyprus by the Turks. Turkish genocidal proclivities have been well established and your pathetic and relentless attempts to mask these issues is disgraceful. Have you no shame?
What made me laugh is the British general talking about the Greek Cypriot wanting to pay him to get his diamonds and of course he refused. However when it comes to Turkey he seems to be in favour of all their goals and even talks about the cards being in their favour. I just wonder how often he's been Paid in other ways buy Turks given a house land deeds and so on Its America and Britain that messed us up in the first place in the same way as their doing to other countries today.

BlazingBoys E-Sports GET OUT TURK
Just watched . 1974 Cyprus conflict ambiguous differences very interesting a story about a father and daughter speaking to Turkish and Greek Cypriots.
The Cypriot inhabitants (of Turkish decent) of 3 villages: Murataga, Sandalla and Athlar were murdered by the Greeks soldiers as part of a Genicide plan. Hasan Suleyman was 9yrs, Kemal Suleyman 6yrs, Okkan Suleyman 3 yrs, Gulden Ali Faik 4 yrs, Ozlem Ali Faik 2 yrs, Ahmet Hasan Muhammet 3 yrs, Vedia Kamil Meric 6 yrs, Yonca Kamil Meric 4 yrs, Ozan Kamil Meric 3 yrs, Hakan Kamil Meric 2 yrs, Nazim Huseyin 6 yrs, Ayse Bayram 8 yrs, Mustafa Bayram 6 yrs, Serife Bayram 1 yr, Sibel Rustem 10 yrs, Gultekin Suleyman 9 yrs, Eren Bayram 9 yrs, Ugur Hasan 9 yrs, Ozcan Hasan 6 yrs, Goksel Arif 8 yrs, Seniz Arif 5 yrs, Hayriye Arif 4 yrs, Talet Memet Tavukcu 8 yrs, Zehra Erdogan 9 yrs, Ahmet Erdogan 8 yrs, Ayse Erdogan 3 ys, Songul Mehmet 6 yrs, Huseyin Erdogan 6 yrs. All the villagers were killed and buried in a mass grave which the UN uncovered. It included a 16 day old baby and 3 80+ women - ARE THESE YOUR ENEMY!!!!!!! Along with Tony Angastiniotis' book Trapped in the Green Line is a DVD documentary 'Voice of Blood' which is the record of a young boy who was taken along with the village and supposedly executed, but survived to tell the truth!!!!!!! The Greeks have banned this book, but you can get it on Amazon and other good internet outlets.
+Catherine Meddes Do you actually think you're being helpful with that crap? You know as well as anyone that Turkey invaded the island, murdered innocent Greek-Cypriot civilians, occupies the island with 40,000 soldiers, refuses to let the Greek-Cypriots and Turkish-Cypriots return to their homes, and has been condemned by every world-wide organization for their continued occupation. That's the reality and if you want to try and hide that reality by throwing in a few crimes on the part of the Greek-Cypriots that happened during a war that they did not start, go ahead, but just know that you're not helping anyone or anything by your shameless comments.
You know nothing about the reality. Turkey had to intervene, and Turkey did not invade any country. It is not an invasion but a peacekeeping mission. Turkey went to Cyprus and protected innocent people.
@Sener S Are you serious about what you say here? crazy, even turkish people accept the fact that they invaded Cyprus, dude. You can google this shit with the internet and all...
Catherine Meddes: You are full of crap. Cyprus does not have a history of genocide. Turkey does have a history of genocide against the Armenians. Also, the Greek Cypriots and the Turkish Cypriot community lived and worked together in peace until non Cypriot influences conspired to shatter the peace for partitionist dreams, divide and rule. Turkey commited an Invasion, Occupation, Ethnic Cleansing (of the Greek Cypriots) and Colonisation.
Beautiful documentary!
So symphonnically soothing and properly informed with details , it expresses the deepest mourn of medeterian sea , once at late ' 60 prosperous Europe spent so mutch to flourish this iland , colonial politics ruined the 💓 beat of human mobility !
I wonder if the Diamonds are still behind the book case??
Seeing abandoned towns is sad.
The Cyprus government should lift the restrictions & allow investors to bring it back.
***** hope to see that one day!
***** Unfortunately, is not up to the Cyprus goverment to lift these restrictions.
+Evan Gragg Evan, it's up to Turkey. They're the only ones standing in the way of the future. They're the only ones keeping their own people in poverty. While the Republic of Cyprus thrives and is prosperous, the north lives in poverty. It's really tragic.
+Matt Foley 👍
+Fikret Aynali You have to keep in mind that Greece is basically a rocky peninsula with poor soil and untapped natural resources. Yet Turkey has lots of natural resources. It's a testament to the Greek people that they've been able to accomplish so much with so little. If it weren't for successive socialist administrations, Greece would not be in the situation it finds itself in now.
As for the occupied part of Cyprus, it's a matter of perspective what is considered poor and what is considered rich. The average wage in Cyprus is much greater than that in the occupied portion and Cypriot Turks go to the south for medical treatment. Take a look at the article yourself: www.euractiv.com/section/future-eu/news/northern-cypriots-put-hope-in-eu-for-reunification/
As a Brit living in Northern Cyprus who visits Famagusta on a regular basis, it distresses me to read the lies below. Surely the people who have written this rubbish cannot believe it is true. The Turkish Cypriots are nice, peaceful and friendly people (many of my neighbours have southern origins and speak Greek). May I suggest that next time you visit Kyrenia/Girne you also visit St Andrews Church of Scotland and pray for God to protect you from the lies you have been fed!!!!!!!!!!!
+Catherine Meddes ... of course Turkish Cypriots are lovely people, as are Greek Cypriots, but supporting mainland Turkeys economy given their human rights record, and living on stolen land is surely immoral?
+Michelle Mylonas Michelle, you have to keep in mind that Catherine is a pro-Turkish sympathizer that supports the continued occupation of northern Cyprus by the Turkish military. She frequently attacks Greek-Cypriots and places the blame on them for the occupation of Cyprus by Turkey. She has not condemned the destruction by the Turkish military of artwork, churches, ancient ruins, etc. that the Greeks created throughout all of Cyprus. All we can do is pray for God to forgive her for her betrayal of the free people of Cyprus.
So you are saying that the Germans are all Nazis because of one man went Bananas. The Italians are all Fascists because one man went Bananas. Greeks are all nationalists because of Junta, Syria is an Islam extremist country.
@@mattfoley4425 cry me a river hajahsjahaja hello from northern cyprus. This is Turkish land.
@@terrificsoprano5025 No one is crying a river except people like you that will never see Turkey part of the EU because of the illegal invasion and illegal occupation of of land that had been lived in by the Greeks for thousands of years. The fact that you would rather wallow in hate rather than learn to make peace shows a contempt for the peace process. People like you have no interest in peace and who can't get past the atrocities of BOTH Greeks and Turks. You're mired down in hate and an inability to learn to live in peace with its neighbors. I pity people like you.
Just returned to Scotland from a holiday in Cyprus.....we made the trip to Famagusta and walked along the beach in front of the hotels.....so sad it cannot be sorted out.
Felix O'Hagan BLAME THE TURKS THAT LAUNCHED A MILITARY INVASION THAT IS OCCUPYING HALF THE COUNTRY
@@trutharmy6517 thats why Turkish State left that city as a its not invasion, "Cyprus peace operation" it was necessary measurement to stop slaughtering more Turkish indigenous by greek fascist ! i hope both side would live in peace and harmony again ! stay safe
Mehmet ORÇAN THOUSANDS OF CYPRIOTS STILL MISSING
@@orcanmehmet Turkish army closed that city after they invaded it to stop the legal owners returning. They even placed mines there. Some kind of ''peace operation'' causing killings and destruction. Erdogan has said even if there were no Turkish Cypriots he would still want to take Cyprus. You need to undertand what's really going on in this world.
While i don't want to blame one side over another for the war, as a lot of blame sits on my own country, Cyprus that is, for all they did to Turkish Cypriots all over the island, you cannot stand there and tell me that that minority of people was enough of a cause for land that never belonged to turkey to be annexed by force. As a little fun fact, the invasion was called operation freedom by the Turkish army. Hiding behind the lie of protecting Turkish Cypriots to take over half an island is immoral by any means. There was never any dispute over land, simply ideals. Now i understand that a lot of Cypriots put all the blame on the Turkish and same goes for the Turkish too as that's what you learn growing up. No one teaches you about your countries mistakes, but the fact is prior to his the vast majority of Cypriots and Turkish Cypriots co-existed as friends and neighbors and even families and all this invasion served to do was separate u all of us and expand the Turkish reach in the Mediterranean. Cyprus is on a very prestigious crossroad of Europe, Asia and Africa and so many countries in out history sought to take it over. Turkey never cared about their own people, they had wanted to take over the island for centuries, as they had done before. And as for people talking about why we didn't fight, i'd like to say that my grandfather, as with most of our grandfathers, were captured, taken to mainland turkey and tortured for years until being sent back just for defending against a force thousands of times bigger than us. There is no scenario where we could have prevailed other than getting help from Greece or Britain. We were never a war faring island and never sought to be. I do not have a problem with Turkish Cypriot or even Turkish people, as they are very close to my own culture but the dictatorship that is the Turkish government i have many problems with. They not only oppressed my people but now oppress even their own. They raped, pillaged and destroyed so much of our countries beauties, and that goes for both Cypriot and Turkish Cypriot. It simply saddens me to see so many people defending these actions by saying a minority of Cypriot were dicks to Turkish. These actions are indefensible, and while i dont think this is ever going to happen, i wish that eventually we have a unified Cyprus once again, free of the dictatorship that is Turkey so that Cypriots and Turkish Cypriots can once again share a neighborhood, bond over coffee, and once again coexist as one.
Tone your a fucking traitor. We didn’t do anything wrong, Cyprus was and always will be Greek, military invasion is a violation of international law, and these Turks would have taken the whole island if we didn’t stop them!! There’s a reason why turkey imported thousands of Turks from the mainland to occupy the captured territory!!!

what a waste i seen this place in 1970 when my dad was stationed in Cyprus and we visited famagusta such a nice city and now such a waste
Maybe they should use it as a refugee camp for Syrians? Such a waste to have a ghost city and I don't see the conflict resolved for the next 5 years, so let Syrian refugees temporarily use it as a safe harbor.

It is very simple.
1. Get EU money
2. Fix the damn place up
3. Run an experiment, allow Turkish and Greek Cypriots to inhabit the area together and see if they can live together without hostility against each other.
4. Apply the lesson's learned to solve the Cypriot issue.
simon199418 no need take money from EU , greek cyprus , turkish cyprus ( and little help from turkey , greece )
this city can built in one year again.
I hope people will live in peace
Trust me greek and turskish cant leave together the situations will be the worst
Andreas Yiannakou I think that the young people should be able to live together. Its all a case of how we handle racism, if we endorse it by not allowing Turkish Cypriots in our community then you are right we will end up not liking each other eventually. The key is that, I believe, we have a lot of things in common with those "aliens" in the other side. They are all presented as Turk loving idiots to us but I am 100% sure it isn't the case. Plus some business with Turkey will help our economy.
you think its racism people lost ther father and their home..its not racism its hatred and anger for this people..it will be the worst decision to leave together and you will see it in future
Andreas Yiannakou Its in the past, if you want to live in 1974 then that's fine but don't expect society to follow.....
THIS IS HOW IT ALL STARTED : Since 1931, Greek Cypriots have intensified their demands for mergers with Greece. The “ENOSIS” campaign, which can be summarized as combining Cyprus with Greece and making it a tamamen Elen ”island, was accelerated after the Second World War. In 1954, Greece decided to bring the Cyprus issue to the United Nations. Greece did not succeed in its various applications to the UN for the purpose of "self-determination" between 1954-1958. Meanwhile, Colonel Grivas, who came from Greece, founded the EOKA terrorist organization in 1955, and the number of acts of violence on the island has increased. During the period 1955-1958, Turkish Cypriots had to leave 33 mixed villages. In 1956, Britain declared that not only the Greek Cypriots but also the Turkish Cypriots had the right to self-determination, and that the demand for distribution was a viable option.
During the period 1955-58, Turkish Cypriots were forced to leave 33 mixed villages due to violent actions
Mr V Actually, Grivas was Cypriot but spent some time in Greece
I would love to explore this place!!
You are free to try your chance there my friend =)
OTTOMAN EMPİRE, pls about salaminia tower
As someone who served in the military service and was lucky enough to be able to explore, all I can say is, it's amazing and eerie at the same time and also after 48 years the Turkish Cypriot government decided to open and re-build it, so you'll be able to explore it!
@@pronix8567 ottoman empire finished ! for ever !!!
I have heard from Turkish Cypriots living in Cypress in this time that they did not want the Turks taking over as they was no racial tension!
Exactly!!! Turkish Cypriots where forced to go on the other side or they will get killed real Turkish Cypriots don’t like or want Turks to take our land and they don’t even use the fake flag they don’t like free Cyprus and Cyprus will always be Cypriot
@@jusyourcypriotshordie4623 Ersin Tatar was elected. A leader of the pro-Turkey. It saddens me to say this, but Northern Cyprus is more democratic from Turkey. There is no cheating in the elections.
There is another TH-cam video featuring an abandoned Car dealer in Varosha where cars are still there.
An island with Greek name and Greek toponyms.
With cities founded by Greeks long before the Turks even arrive in Minor Asia.
The birthplace of Aphrodite and Zeno of Citium....
How can it belong to a foreign culture that had invaded it brutally so many times ?
Cyprus is a Greek creation! Cypriot is a Greek toponym.
Turks never respected what represents the name CYPRUS.
Then Greeks should have fought for their land. They could fight back but they didn't they ran away. When we were back in WWI even civilians fought back against the western invaders. And here I am not talking about the Greek civilians on the island. Greece could also land its soldiers on the island and fight back. But they didn't. So you can't come here and cry and blame our ancestors.
If Turkey had some dignity it would give back the Greek cities to their rightful owners.... Like Romans and Germans and British did a long time ago. No european country nowadays holds cities of others. except from the uncivilised Turkey.
KILLING PEOPLE IS NOT A SOLUTION.
WE ARE ALL HUMANS.
WE ARE NOT MURDERERS !!!
WE ARE TRYING TO BUILD A BETTER WORLD NOT MAKE IT WORSE !!!
@poison ivy Greeks inhabited the island thousands of years before the Turks even arrive in Minor Asia. Greeks(Cypriots) gave its name and founded its cities . The name Cyprus describes the ability of Aphrodite. There are ancient Greek monuments all over the island and many ancient Egyptian, Assyrian, Greek and other scripts proving this. Who do you think built the amphitheatres and the temple of Apollo Hylates ? The cities of the island of Aphrodite are part of the Greek civilisation.
Why do you want them so much? Are you jealous of the Greeks?
@poison ivy If that was true the majority of Cyprus wouldn’t still speak Greek nowadays. We would speak Italian and we would be Italians. But we are not. Where do you think Greeks Cypriots came from? From outer space?
Also there are Venetian manuscripts in the museums of Venice that talk about the life of Greek Cypriots during the Venetian rule and confirm that Cyprus during that time was mainly inhabited by Cypriots (Greeks) not Italians.
@poison ivy We do recognise the Turkish Cypriots my friend. They are rightful citizens of the Republic of Cyprus, like I am. And some of them live peacefully in the same area I live nowadays. They have the same rights as I do. Ethnic cleansing was caused by Turks against Greeks and Armenians who were living in Minor Asia. If Cypriots had caused ethic cleansing there were not be any Turks in Cyprus right now and we wouldn’t be here talking about things that make no sense. During the 50’s-60’s mistakes happened by SOME bad people from both sides. Don’t judge a whole country by the mistakes of the few, it’s not wise. I wasn’t even born back then so it is not my fault. I didn’t kill anyone and I could never kill anyone. No-one has the right to take someone’s life for any reason. Also don’t forget that is the Ottomans who attack the Greeks Cypriots first during the 1570’s. The Turks started this!
Do you have any idea how much suffering the Ottoman Turks caused to Greek-Cypriots that period or are you pretending that those crimes never happened ?! The Ottomans had no right to invade in Cyprus neither did the Venetians or any other nation. Keryneia was founded by Achaean Greeks and Ammochostos by Macedonian Greeks they are part of our cultural heritage which you don’t respect.
TURKEY's OPERATION ON CYPRUS IN 1974 IS COMPLETELY LEGAL:
(1) Makarios (1ST PRESIDENT OF CYPRUS) (the UN Security Council Speech, 19 July 1974):
MAKARIOS: "CYPRUS WAS INVADED BY GREECE"
Sound record of the speech: www.cypnet.co.uk/ncyprus/history/republic/makarios1.wav
(2) Turkey acted on Cyprus via Art. IV(2) Treaty of Guarantee ("In the event of a breach of the provisions of the present treaty, Greece, Turkey and the United Kingdom undertake to consult together with respect to the representations or measures necessary to ensure observance of those provisions. In so far as common or concerted action may not prove possible, each of the three guaranteeing Powers reserves the right to take action with the sole aim of re-establishing the state of affairs created by the present Treaty."), hence in compatible with Art. 2(4) UN Charter.
(3) The Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe (PACE) (29.07.1974, Resolution 573): "The Turkish military INTERVENTION was the exercise of a RIGHT EMANATING FROM AN INTERNATIONAL TREATY and the fulfilment of a LEGAL and MORAL obligation."
(4) Greece's Athens Court of Appeals (21.03.1979; Case No: 2658/79): "The Turkish military INTERVENTION in Cyprus, which was carried out in accordance with the Zurich and London Accords, was LEGAL. Turkey, as one of the Guarantor Powers, had the right to fulfill her obligations. The real culprits . . . are the Greek officers who engineered and staged a coup and prepared the conditions for this INTERVENTION." Note: Just after 5 years later than 1974, in 1979, Greece's Highest Court decided Turkish military intervention is legal without making any difference between 1st and 2nd military operation!
(5) Till now, there is NO sanction applied on Turkey due to 1974 Cyprus war: another sign of legality dimension of 1974 events.
If a country invades another one, UN imposes sanctions on that country.
Iraq invaded Kuwait, and UN imposed sanctions on Iraq.
Turkey did not invade Cyprus, hence UN did not impose any sanction on Turkey!
(6) There is no UN resolution that calls the Turkey's 1974 action as "invasion"!
Why can't the Cypriots put their differences aside and work together for a brighter future instead of turning everything into shit
The Hen i think it is bcoz of Turkey and Greece!
+The Hen If some strangers invade into your home, would you be able to "put your differences aside and work with them for a bright future" all together?If those strangers had killed members of your family would you be able to see them as "friends"?Sitting in your couch writing advising comments is the easiest part.
PS:There are Cypriots and there are Turks.You should be able to know the difference.
+The Hen Actually, the problem is that Turkey won't remove their 40,000 soldiers and allow the island to re-unify. Greece has totally backed out of the situation so the only obstacle is Turkey. Greek-Cypriots and Turkish-Cypriots want to go back to their homes but Turkey is standing in the way.
@KoivuTheHab dude more advantages about unification had the turkish side is there a reason that such a big portion of greek-cypriots refused of course they will do because most lands will stay in turkeys hands and on top of that turkey would have kept an army in cyprus with the greek-cypriots also loosing their properties first of all read what was the plan of the unification and get into the cypriots shoes to see things clear
1:00 dude stole his girls eyebrows.

Watch...1974 Cyprus Conflict Ambiguous Differences . Good insight into Cypriots on both sides.
Mr Honest I wonder why they usually focus on the « two » sides rather than those who actually planned the whole thing out, the British and the Americans.
Не мое право судить историю, но сейчас другая история этого острова и с этим фактом грекам надо мириться ,а не жить прошлыми воспоминаниями.Нужно искать решения к мирному существованию.Посмотрите СК на сегодня развивается ,строится и здесь интересно жить,люди миролюбивы .а вы посмотрите чем живет ЮК какие люди (внутреннее содержание)...
This is yet another example of a European problem that can to linked to the aftermath of WW1. Turkey, being a member of the Central Powers, was one of the defeated nations.
The British "colonized" the island (a term used by John Hughes-Wilson) in 1925, at which time it ignored or voided land ownership by Ottoman charitable organizations, and, proceeded to claim rightful ownership of all Cypriot land. With this delusion of ownership, the Britiah sold this land to the Greeks, something that it had no right to do.
As Cyprus wanted to join the European Union, there was a golden opportunity to have the entire Cypriot question solved: Either the whole island, or, none of the island!
So 40 plus years on , whats the solution?
Why have talks stalked ? this should have been solved years ago, but its never to late.
All Cyprus would gain from a peaceful solution. People need to remind themselves again Cyprus is for all, not just!
Έχετε ήδη πάνω από το ήμισυ της Κύπρου. Περισσότερα για εσάς τι θέλετε;
Όλα...και θα τα πάρουμε!!
Όλοι θέλουν να σε κατακτήσουν για την ομορφιά σου αλλά πάντα ήσουν και θα είσαι ελληνική. Και κανείς δεν μπόρει να το αλλάξει αυτό.
nein this is turkish country
Gerçekten harika bir video olmuş, emeğinize yüreğinize sağlık 🇹🇷
What is the name of all the songs in this documentary? Especially the one that starts at 7:23?
There's a special place in hell for people who hurt the innocent, the people who had to flea did nothing to deserve the treatment they received. Why do governments take it out on unarmed civilians? They could have handled taking control over the island without bloodshed of anykind or people becoming refugees. Government employees just doing what they are told will be the destruction of the planet. May God not have mercy or take pity on anyone who was involved in the actions of making people suffer.
This video is describing it as if there were « sides » back then. There were just machallades, as we call them in Greek.
like turkey is not big enough. what do you want with little cyprus. let it be !
What do you want with Turkish cypriots's rights and existence, let it be !
Real Turkish Cypriots don’t even want Turks to be on cyprus and to give our land back bc it not theres
How can I enter there for tour?
If you want to solve promlem in cyprus pleases divedi into 2 the island for two community which is comlenetly different in every way
This Dude thinks it's Ottoman land because they classified as charity or something.
Who owned it before Ottomans bro? Cyprus was there before Ottomans. Don't pretend like History started with Ottoman rule. Turkish mouthpiece.
It wasn't Greek Cypriot either as there was nobody there dummy.
The British rented the island and did not buy it. England invaded without war. He seized Ottoman assets and sold them as he wanted. Do you think that's true? The natives of Cyprus are not Greek and Turkish. Today Maraş is 100% TRNC.
@@Cancalılardan In 1914, at the beginning of World War I, Cyprus was annexed by the United Kingdom. In 1925, following the dissolution of the Ottoman Empire, Cyprus was made a Crown Colony. In 1974 Britain only had two bases on the island. British Forces (me included) assisted with the evacuation of civilians from Famagusta/Verosha.
@@rockywr You have invaded our lands unjustly! We regain the land we lost before :) This is only the beginning.
It is a very sad story
Off off çok çok yazık olmuş kente çok yazık madem Türkler ele geçirmiş sonra neden böyle sahipsiz kimsesiz yapayalnız bomboş kalmış ki çok yazık çok yazık 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
Git biraz tarih oku
Am sure the British made sure the turks hold all the cards even though it was a long time ago
I spent time in Cyprus when in the British Army in the late50's , so years later one can blame MAKARIOS for all the shit that took place later , and . his followers . So do not blame the Turks for what happened later blame the Greek Cypriots for what they allowed to happen .
and also lets not forget that Greek Cypriots were the majority population there and quite rightly wanted independence for their Island, but not all of them wanted Enosis. The Turkish population was 12%.

Of course a brit cuck would say this ur the ones that used division control tactics on the island pusdi
@@MillyMiller84 Haha you think you can take over a island with Turkish population despite Turkey Army. You just licked your palm:D You had to accept the Turkish cypriot existence but you didn't and we all see what happened.
2020?

Keşke kapatılmasa.
THE LAWS OF NORTHERN CYPRUS ARE ACCEPTED IN EUROPE:
(Northern Cyprus :=: Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus)
Not only the "TRNC Immovable Property Commission (and its related laws)" but also "ALL THE LAWS OF TURKISH REPUBLIC OF NORTHERN CYPRUS" WAS ACCEPTED ON BEHALF OF EUROPE (European Court of Human Rights; ECtHR).
ECtHR Decision 02.07.2013, App. nos. 9130/09 and 9143/09; Pavlides v. Turkey; Georgakis v. Turkey
hudoc.echr.coe.int/sites/eng/Pages/search.aspx#{"fulltext":["Pavlides"],"documentcollectionid2":["CASELAW"],"itemid":["001-122907"]}
ECtHR: "...notwithstanding the lack of international recognition of the regime in the northern area, a de facto recognition of its acts may be rendered necessary for practical purposes. Thus, THE ADOPTION BY THE AUTHORITIES OF THE "TRNC" OF CIVIL, ADMINISTRATIVE OR CRIMINAL LAW MEASURES, AND THEIR APPLICATION OR ENFORCEMENT WITHIN THAT TERRITORY, may be regarded as having a legal basis in domestic law for the purposes of the Convention".
Note: In the related ECtHR's decision above, the case application of the Greek Cypriot was IMMEDIATELY REJECTED; i.e., his application was found INADMISSABLE.
That is to say, he was expelled by ECtHR just at the beginning; therefore, his case was not handled (no sessions were held) by ECtHR at all.
+Alexy Flemmings Alexy they are only interested in listening to their own lies and Propaganda - not the truth. I have suggested they go to St Andrews Church of Scotland in Kyrenia/Girne because they keep saying their are no Christian Churches in the North - that is all Greek LIES AND PROPAGANDA!!!

Give it back
Güzel belgesel teşekkürler. Açıldığını ve Türkler tarafından kullanıldığını görürüz en yakın zamansa umarım

Vila do Conde, Portugal. Amazing! That company doesnt exist anymore, lol...
I came here for this, Portugal caralho!
Such a waste the inhumanity, of man!
Всегда гуляю вдоль забора мечтая туда попасть ...
No one talks about the massacres the Greeks made.
@EK 86 The Turkish minority did the same too. And the Ottomans before them! Cypriots were fighting to protect the Cypriot culture. Turks wanted to Turkify it like they did in Constantinople. Cyprus is the island of Aphrodite not the island of Hatise. lol
Your lier
You know whats astonishing? That the British have a say about a land which is not theirs! European Union has a say, Turkey has a say, but Cypruses needs and say is being rejected by these superCountries. Im very sad because Cyprus plays a big role by
strategic position in the mediterranean. And i hopefully they leave once and for all (the turks and whoever supports their dictator ship ) when the islamic vs the rest of the world start...God have mercy on us the sinners...
And where exactly does mr John Hughes-Wilson live? I guess at the Occupied by Turkey Areas. Tell us mr. John, what about your several colleagues killed and threatened by some Turkish military officers for informations? Tell us also about your hundreds of other colleagues that TOOK money from Turkish people to bring them stuff from Varosha under some heavy payment... Or some others colleagues of yours who "found" some valuable items from the G/C homes and sold it to Turkish soldiers.... If you are about to remember things you should of course remember that instead of presenting G/C as the only bad guys here.... Oh and yes there are lots and lots of reports for this matter. And come on ... let's be honest. Sure you must took some money to deliver items from the city ;) but from the other side... not from the savage and bad G/C's who threatened you. 45 years passed, be honest and stop playing the good guys because you are NOT.
If you know of any that have done this then I suggest you report it to the British Authorities as this will be investigated. If, however, you're just making it up and attempting to put a barrier up then grow up.
UN did nothing in Palestine and Kashmir. Expect nothing for Norther Cypress as Well. Bottom-line the winner takes it all
It's in Cyprus, give it to the cypriots, simple, make lots of low cost housing
It's all about the money/ I'ts l about dum dum dum dum dum dum/ And I think we got it all wrong anywaaaaaaaaaay........
Regardless of who’s land it is turkey should open it up

Varosha Türkçe Varoş sözcüğünden türemiştir
Nice propaganda 10/10. Because we are a small island Turkey and UK played us like a chip in a poker game but we took the legal procedures required by the international law to create the The Republic of Cyprus 16 August 1960, Cyprus attained independence after the Zürich and London Agreement between the United Kingdom, Greece and Turkey. The land belongs tooooo... The Republic of Cyprus which we are the rightful owner since we paid and bought and build our houses and businesses on the land legally. No matter who is to blame etc the land still belongs to The Republic of Cyprus.
Northern Cyprus people must restart settling in Varosha.
why cant turkey and cyprus make peace and give cyprus back there resort the world has turned against eatchother and innocent people get killed everyday !
TRUTH ARMY tell the greeks stop racism their military marches about kill turks albsnians macedonian they try genocide turkish cypriots but always they lost remember Turkey independence war greek army burnt İzmir when they escaping and this happens never forget if greece propaganda racism not stop greece can be split in future greeks occupied south macedonia thessaloniki give back free south macedonia!
Because it was Greek !!!!
What was this English UN guy doing in Cyprus when Turkey was bombing hotels etc, and killing innocent civilians? He seems to glamorise the events. I believe he bares a grudge against Greek Cypriots for the embarrassment of the EOKA freedom fighters against the might of the British Empire in the 1950s.
Excellent film Ahmet. Would be good to chat some time.
Why not, whenever you want we can have a talk =)
