Why is Cyprus Divided? (Short Animated Documentary)

The Greeks did not want the Turks in government because they called all other tribes barbarians and were a selfish nation. Although Türkiye went through a difficult period, it defended its rights. I don't see any injustice here

Wow thanks for sharing this video that was very confusing I hope someone can explain it to me so many people want control of Cyprus it's a free country it shouldn't be controlled so that's why Cyprus is abandoned a ghost town.

Cyprus and Crete belong to Türkiye.

The cartoons are very interesting .The story however is for little kids.

Im actulay turkish and my 2 autines and my mum are from cyprus even my uncle

“They were to busy being poor”

Objectively the Turks have been a blight on history.

Article 49 of the Fourth Geneva Convention states: “The Occupying Power shall not deport or transfer parts of its own civilian population into the territory it occupies.” It also prohibits the “individual or mass forcible transfers, as well as deportations of protected persons from occupied territory”. 

Turkish violated the Geneva convention and these violations should be undone. The expulsion of greeks from nothern cyprus must be undone. The settlement of anatolian turks in cyprus should be undone, the only turks allowed in Cyprus should be turkish cypriots.

You forgot some points.
There was an organisation called eoka which was founded to unify Greece and Cyprus. In order to do that, they fought with brits to expel Brits from the Island. And yes, when Turkish Cypriots helped brits, this was the first place where Turkish and greek cyrpiots fought. After establishing Cyprus and expelling brits, their new goal was to expel Turkish Cypriots to make "ethnic cleaning basically". And so, genocides and attacks to Turkish Cypriots by greek cyrpiots happened, like bloody Christmas. Turkey tried to solve this for like 10 years with diplomacy and wanted to ensure the safety of Turkish Cypriots but it did not work. And yeah, the coup was probably the last stage, Turkey decided to make an operation ri Cyprus in order to ensure the safety of Turkish Cypriots and yeah that's how it was divided but you didn't include massacres like bloody Christmas

Your truth just made me subscribe

sounds like it belongs to greece and the turks should get out

FREEDOM TO CYPRUS 🇨🇾
CYPRUS IS GREEK 🇬🇷

Turkgays occupie the Northern part od Cyprus.

So basically all our world's problems are cuz of the British

um cyprus was owned by cypriots at first cypriots had their own language which got forgotten and a greek came and found us and then england owned us sooo as a proud CYPRIOT cypriot hate that story and i cant wait till i the day i will get my parents and family’s property back

turkish invaders and genociders

because of the Mongols.

So the world was angry at Turkish expansion back then
But meanwhile in Palestine which also used to be ottoman controlled.
War crimes & No justice for Palestinians is largely accepted.
No wonder Erdogan is speaking up against the hypocrisy.
History is horrible and tends to repeat itself far to often

Why are there any Turks out of Mongolia or China? SEND THEM ALL BACK TO xi

North Cyprus occupied by Mongols.

Can't relate to video when you sugar coat and miss the mark by quite a big margin. Didn't even mention how Greek Cypriots massacred many Turkish Cypriots for a long while and after THAT Turkish people started countering.

Cyprus is a Greek island.

Turkish mongoloids invaded the island.

Mehmet Ali Mustafa Ahmet Yusuf Muhammad and Hasan, Fatma Ayse Hatice Zeynep Deniz and Elif get the hell out of Cyprus.

Cyprus must be united with mother Greece.

The same problem with Palestine, England is the first who create this problem.

Turkish forces landed here!!!!
So they never invaded right?

You forgot that the EOKA was systematically killing Turkish Cypriots! They wanted to cleanse the island! Again this is a mess the British created in the middle east. The same in Palestine.

Sorry, so under the Ottoman rule and even British rule, was Cyprus already a mix of Greeks/ Turks? I know Turkey invaded but why? Was there already a Turkish population on the island?

You re wrong dude . . . .it is not divided ..... it is occupied !!!!!

Why Britain why do you have to be at the centre of every global mess? Why ????

Cyprus is just like Palestine/Israel: a 2 state solution is necessary. Luckily in Cyprus, this is in place.
