Abstract

This article aims at revealing the foundations of Turkish policy on the island after the Occupation of the North of Cyprus, the consequences of which are extremely important for the future of Cyprus. The aim of the research is to study the policy of the Turkish authorities to change the population ratio on the island as well as to strengthen the Turkish element in the occupied territories, which has a solid basis for continuity in that part of Cyprus. The work was written by a combined study of facts using the principles of historical analysis. The study confirms that after the Occupation of North of Cyprus, the steps taken by Turkey to change the demographic picture of the island at the state level, which began in Turkey in relation to Cyprus in the 1960s, were a continuation of this aggressive policy. The goal was to divide Cyprus, to establish a Turkish presence in the north of the island, and on the way to this, Turkey was ready even to ignore the interests and wishes of the Turkish Cypriots on the island.
