PAPAPETRU'S CONFESSION
"WE KEPT TURKISH CYPRIOTS IN GHETTOS"
The newly elected leader of the Greek Cypriot United
Democrats Party (EDI),
Mihalis Papapetru, confessed that the Greek Cypriots kept
Turkish Cypriots in ghettos from 1963-74.
Speaking to the Greek Cypriot 'Alithia' daily Papapetru
said:
"From 1963 until 1974, without taking into consideration
human rights or anything else we imprisoned the Turkish Cypriots in 'ghettos'.
We felt comfortable and happy because the Republic of Cyprus had become
totally Hellenized and the disturbing Turkish Cypriots were not in our way. We
shouldn't make the same mistake again or believe that we'll continue to rule
again".
