July 20, 2012 will mark the 38th anniversary of the Turkish Invasion. After 38 years, one third of Cyprus is still occupied. This month, despite Turkish threats, Cyprus took over the EU Presidency.
Yet, developments have been alarming; with Turkey not only interfering with the sovereign rights of the Cypriot Republic but it is also threatening US-business interests in the area.
It is also in violation of Article 49 of the Geneva Convention by forcibly colonizing the occupied part of the island with population from inner Turkey at the expense of the local Turkish Cypriot residents.
