Many are under the impression that the settlers constitute the problem of the Cypriot issue, without realizing that their handling is purely economic.
The settlers came to Cyprus not due to the invasion, but due to financial incentives, and that, with the encouragement of the deep Turkish State, which wanted to use the settlement as an occupational strategy, in order to obtain an excuse for its presence in the region.
In other words, the settlers would have by no means come to Cyprus, as they don’t consider it their homeland.
In actual fact, they are aware that they constitute tools of the strategy of the State which has been extended in an illegal manner.
As a result, we see that the settlers haven’t come in order to support the Turkish Cypriots, but only to constitute the physical presence of Turkey in the area.
So the Turkish Cypriots, for example, do not enjoy any of the benefits of the Turkish EEZ, while they are trying to explain to us, that we are not dealing with the matter.
We must therefore put an end to this rhetoric, because it makes no sense, and it traps us unnecessarily.
The settlers simply constitute an economic obstacle. There is no human factor to take into account, as there was not so, from the beginning.
If for some reason Turkey is forced to ask for their repatriation to their homeland, she will do it without any hesitations.
She doesn’t give any importance to their existence, as they are merely pawns on a chess board which she wants to control.
But what really concerns her is the eastern front, and it’s upon that, that she will give emphasis and she will certainly manipulate the settlers without any diplomacy.
It’s for this reason that they will depart without any interference.
