The social, cultural and economic pressures they have been experiencing since 1974 have been increased more than ever before. Cypriots, who constitute a small part of the population living in the occupied northern region of Cyprus, are forced to migrate from their homeland by Turkey as a result of the socio-economic pressures they are exposed to due to the settler colonialism initiated by Turkey after the occupation.

16.08.2020 – 16th of August. 60 years ago, today, our nation became independent after experiencing centuries of colonialism and imperialism. It is the date that our unitary and consociational Republic of Cyprus declared its independence. And it is also the date that the Turkish-speaking Cypriot İsmet Güney gifted us our national flag, the flag of the Cypriot Republic.

03.08.2020 – As Union of Cypriots, we do believe that for reinforcing our unitary republic, a pluralist democracy should be the ultimate goal for all Cypriots. But unlike federalists or other segregationists in our land, we are aware of the urgency of ending the Turkish occupation and we believe that the only way to delegitimize Turkey’s existence in our island is possible by “restoring the constitutional order in Cyprus”. Therefore, we advocate the idea that even if Cypriots want to decide to change the system of the government, it should be done democratically under the constitution of the Republic of Cyprus, after getting rid of Turkey’s illegal army and settlers.

27.07.2020 – As Union of Cypriots, we always defend the fact that the Republic of Cyprus and Cypriots have only one constitutional army. And that is the one described in the constitution itself. Therefore, we see the so-called “National Guard” just as a segregationist unconstitutional militia formed by the Greek-speaking Cypriot administration unilaterally in 1964, after the destruction of the constitutional order and the dissolution of legal armed forces in Cyprus.

03.02.2020 (revised on 09.06.2020) – The elections for the Turkish-speaking Cypriot leadership on 11 October 2020 (previously scheduled on 26 April 2020) in the occupied area of Cyprus do not have any legitimacy under current circumstances and this situation has also reached a dimension that affects all Cypriots and the future of Cyprus Problem.

22.01.2020 – As Union of Cypriots, this year, we would like to share the statement of the world’s biggest anti-imperialist and democratic movements alliance “International League of Peoples’ Struggle (ILPS)” regarding the anniversary of the Afrika newspaper attacks.

18.12.2019 – As Union of Cypriots, we are following closely the recent Turkish military activities in the occupied areas of Cyprus. Turkey currently has more than 40 thousand illegal military personnel in the island. This illegal army is not here only as a threat against the existence of the Republic of Cyprus, Turkey also uses it as a tool for oppression against the Turkish-speaking Cypriots who are trapped in the occupied areas.

26.11.2019 – We are witnessing another event that BBF supporters will try to present as “progress”, despite the reality that nothing changed against the status-quo. The meeting of Cypriot leaders yesterday in Berlin under the UN auspices ended with just a statement, that they will continue working under the decided UN parameters for BBF. We do not remember any side in this “Cyprus game”, including occupier Turkey, ever saying that “they reject UN parameters” anyway. All these show us that the same stories continue for 45 years from the BBF supporters, a solution formulated by Denktaş and Turkey in the first place.

15.11.2019 – 15th November is the anniversary of the “Unilateral Declaration of Independence” (UDI) of the pseudo-state. It was a coup in Cyprus by the US-backed junta in Greece which caused all the tragedy in 1974. And it was another US-backed junta in Turkey which advised Rauf Denktaş and his friends to declare their illegal state in 1983.

28.10.2019 – Many times we made statements about the fact that in the “free” areas of Cyprus, the 1st October “Independence Day” is being celebrated with foreign Greek flags because of the traitor Greek-speaking Cypriot politicians who are occupying the positions of our republic “unconstitutionally”.

As we always say: “In this island, the existence of the Greek flag guarantees the existence of the Turkish flag. And vice-versa. Both are banners of the sickness of the traitors, grecophilia and turcophilia. Hanging one of them only legitimizes the other. It’s as simple as that.”
