50 Years of Shame for Greece and EU

This is the 50th anniversary of Turkish Republics actions to save the Turkish Cypriot minority from annihilation in the hands of Greek military Junta invaders.

The atrocities committed by the Greek invaders and local militias are well documented.

Turkish action was based on her right and the responsibility given to them by The London Treaty of Guarantee, a treaty between Cyprus, Greece, Turkey, and the United Kingdom that was signed on 16 August 1960. 

This are the words of President of Makarios at the United Nations after the Greek military junta action.

TCA shames Greece and the two faced EU for declaring not this as military invasion but the Turkiye's life saving military actions as invasion and admitting later only the Greek dominated southern part of the inland in to EU.
