Appeal on Turkish people!

My fellow citizens,

The British want to give Cyprus to Greece. And we all know what happened to Turkish people living under Greek rule. I try to prevent this fate. So I ask all patriotic Turks not to buy any British product, if it is not totally neccessary. That there might be cases in which a complete embargo of British products might hurt Turks, for example the lack of medicine, is the only reason to prevent a total embargo. But, my patriotic friends, it is your task not to buy British products, if it is not absolutely neccessary. I know I can count on you. And you can count on me!

Inönü

The Muslim Brotherhood urges all true Muslims in Egypt and across the world to boycott British product. We cannot have our Turkish Cypriot brothers suffer the Palestine Syndrome. We must send the message to the British imperialists that their era of arbitrarily determining other people's fates are over.

The people of the USSR support this action. This fight against british arbitrariness is a duty for all free loving people.

OOC: Sorry but this is ASB. This would cause, that the southern flank of NATO will collapse if Britain "donates" Cyprus to Greece. The Turks would have left NATO and the southern flank of NATO would collapse.

Correcting: It is not ASB. That is the wrong word. It is in fact realistic, that this would have happened. But this would have real devastating consequences on the entire game./OOC

While Egypt believes that self-determination is the right way, Cyprus is British territory. What the British decides to do with Cyprus is its internal matter. However, we urge our British friends to seriously considering a plebiscite in Cyprus, so that Greek and Turkish Cypriots alike can have a say in their future.

The Egyptian government do not represent all Egyptians. The NDP and the opposition parties support Turkey in this matter. The British have no right to do to Cyprus what they did to Palestine. It is against the principles of the United Nations and all the civilised world believed in.

OOC: As Turkey I am the same opinion like Andi. It is the same reason why I even think a war with Greece would not only be possible but highly likely. Even a switch to WP of Turkey would becomes possible once the war escalates. There was a reason why Cyprus is not Greek. And why the Turkish invaded in 1974. That would have happened, too. No Turkish government could have accepted Cyprus as Greek. A war would have been immanent. Simon, I think you severely underestimates the enemyship of Greek and Turkish. They are even stronger than the Franco German archenemyship! And indeed a war was only prevented because of the Soviets and because the Greek had the better Uboats. The latter is a citate of a Greek officer, why there was no war with Turkey.
If I really do my job, I would have to delcare war on Greece for this action. And that would lead to an ASB war.
Simon, please contact me, why you are risking such a war!

OOC: This would not be the onliest war between Greece and Turkey. They fought several wars over the last few thousand years. This is an enemyship which you can not describe. Take an example. Ouzo and Raki. It is nearly the same. But if you order Ouzo in Turkey or Raki in Greece, then you need good shoes to run, and you have to be fast.

If you give Cyprus to Greece, Simon, or the other way around you give Cyprus to Turkey, neither the Turkish nor the Greek goverment would have any other choice than going to war, because the majority of people in each country feels that Cyprus is there country. So if there should be a war between NATO states, then go on with your policy, but be aware that this will destabilze the entire NATO, which is currently very weak. But easy playing for me ;) /OOC

Turkey is free to advise her citizens to do what they want.

Britain has already stated her position as to the protection of Turkish Cypriots and the guarantee of equal rights and treatment. The fears expressed by the Turkish government are unfounded.

This is the position of the current caretaker government.

OOC: How about, rather than rushing to judgement, seeing how matters play out. There is a very big hint in the last sentence.

OOC: Simon, again you make the mistake not to hear on people and not to contact them when you should have done so!
Any ceding of Cyprus to Greece or Turkey is severly ASB and threatens the whole Southern flank of the NATO!

OOC: ASB is a much over-used term these days, it seems. It is not a situation that would require magic or alien intervention; it was one of the options considered at the time.

Once again, read and think before rushing into a host of exclamations.

OOC: In fact this is a possible scenario. The Greeks get Cyprus. But this would blow the entire NATO southern flank, because of a rising war between Turkey and Greece. And USA and GB would be forced to react on this war between "friends". This is a very destabilizing situation /OOC

OOC: There are many more stages to international relations between peace and war. We are seeing some of them here.
Other parties would also not let the situation go directly to war.
There are many levels of reactions; so far in this game, we are seeing immediate recourse to some of the most extreme ones while skipping others.

Given that there is no Greece player, a war would not really be doable.

OOC: Generally you're right, Simon. But not in the case of Greece and Turkey. There a war is really immanent in such a case!

OOC: In the very special relations between Greeks and Turkish, there is no space for more stages in such a case.

There is a deep feeling of hate against the other side. Neither a Greek nor Turkish goverment would have any other choice than going to war. This is a fact. If you would take some minutes to get a more detailed view on the Turkish and Greek relations over the last 1,000 years, then you would see it in my way.

Even today, a war between Greece and Turkey is possible. There are many open questions like territory questions in the Aegean Sea. /OOC
