occupation of our country by Turkey, not just the banking crisis | Cyprus recently has featured on the world map because of our financial crisis. For many (particulary non European countries) the name Cyprus merely rang some vague distant bell and difficulties in located it on the world map ensued.Since our banking crisis many articles have appeared that convey just how ignorant some of the word is over the situation in Cyprus vis-à-vis the Cyprus problem or more accurately Cyprus’s Turkey problem.
For a long time now, I have been saying there is an URGENT need for the government to create a "type of ambassador" whose role will be to go forth and ensure that the rest of the world DOES know accurately the situation in Cyprus.

The Turkish invasion of 1974, the continuance of in excess of 40,000 troops in our country; the importation of thousands of settlers to the north from Turkey in order to attempt to change the population balance.

Is the adoption of this fair logic the catalyst to securing just solutions for both UN countries.
