Turks propose federation of Cyprus island
Turkish Cypriots proposed a federation government for the divided island with two federated states and a national legislature. The plan envisions guarantees against domination by either community, a constitutional court, water from Turkey for both sides, and possible Greek returns to Famagusta. It was presented to U.N. Secretary-General Waldheim in Vienna with no immediate Greek Cypriot response. Turkey would keep 28,000 troops until a final settlement and guards the enclave arrangement amid 1974 invasion legacies.
