Do Turks still even give a shit about Northern Cyprus anymore nowadays, or is it just a vestige of the 1974 coup? What the hell did Turkey ever really have to gain by taking the island anyway?
>>
Not having it fall into Greek hands.
>>
>>3333915
Of course they do. Why do you think the UN gurads the "border"?
>>
>>3333918
And how would that be bad?
>>
>>3333945

I'll be honest. I'm a half-drunk American who only learned that this dispute even existed like half an hour ago. The Wiki made it sound like some Cold War era relic that Turkey leaves a standing army around because both sides refuse to move on, but it appears that nothing of significance has happened in decades. So I was curious if younger Turks/Cypriots even cared anymore?
>>
>>3333961

Turks care about ANYTHING that has an air of nationalist pride attached to it.
>>
>>3333975

sounds like theyre compensating desu
>>
>>3333961
t.Greek here.
Cypriots care very much, I can tell you that. Greeks are split between caring and bullying the Cypriots about it, Turks, well I don't really know, I guess they are proud or something.
Do know this, both sides commited atrocities.
>>
>>3333979
Also, fun fact, the Rizokarpaso village you see at the peninsula is still Greek, yet Turks haven't removed them.
>>
>>3333979
That t. shit is bad enough without being misused like that.
>>
>>3333994
I just wanted to say it outright, just in case anyone called me out. Better to say it than not, when it comes to these subjects, at least.
>>
>>3333994
t. loser

Greek and Turkey aren't exactly friends, giving Turks a flank at your southern border wouldn't be pleasant for Turkey. It would also turn the major Turkish minority into a minor Turkish majority which would risk jeopardizing their situation.
t.geopolitics wannabe

>Greek and Turkey aren't exactly friends

yes they are - pay less attention to loud retards LARPING as nationalists

>giving Turks a flank at your southern border wouldn't be pleasant for Turkey. It would also turn the major Turkish minority into a minor Turkish majority which would risk jeopardizing their situation.

I'm a Turkish Australian and I rarely think about and am not really sure why we're even there. My dad is annoyed about because he thinks it goes against the Atatürk quote of not harming another nations sovereignty.

Lel my father was UN peacekeeper in Cyprus in the 70s, almost married a Cypriote cutie.

also how is the first guy a t*rk without ever going to a kebab store, fucking disgusting
>>
>>3333915
>after the invasion the Turks displaced the Cypriots from their homes in the north and resettled Anatolian Turks there instead
sounds like conquest to me OP

fun fact: some Turkish comic artist satirized the situation presenting criminals and other lowly-scum as "tourists" that are brought into north Cyprus by some admiral, you know what kind of reaction this caused
>>
>>3333918
Because falling into Turkish hands was a better solution.
>>
>>3333961
Cypriot here, going to another war isn't beneficial for us especially when we have no aerial and naval forces. Here's a little fun fact though, we almost got into war again two decades ago. Almost.

Greek Cypriots were fighting amongst themselves just as much they've been fighting Turk Cypriots

This is the view from south, true shitposting right here

You did this on the Armenians too. Why?
>>
>>3335790
Shitposting is a local tradition, here is an armenian version
>>
>>3335799
We truly are a doomed area
>>
>>3335623
Nice false facts.
An island that had been greek for over 3k years gets an important minority of turks and then Turkey invades it because Cyprus was going to unify with Greece like they should have done before.
>>
>>3335310
Kemalism isn't atheism though.
most kemalists are muslim.
>>
>>3336127
Turks are really secular though.
