The Deniz Incident

|
In October 1959 after an agreement on Cyprus independence had been
concluded a British naval patrol boat intercepted the Turkish ship Deniz
off the Karpass peninsular packed full of illegal arms and ammunition
destined for the TMT terrorist organisation.
While the Cyprus
liberation movement EOKA had already ceased its hostilities which had been
directed against British colonialism and had began to disarm, Turkey
allowed the TMT to arm itself the teeth in order to prepare for a campaign
against the Greek Cypriots and prevent the Christian and Muslim communities
from living together in an independent Cyprus republic.
Turkey proved it had
absolutely no intention of honouring the agreements which it had put its
name to or of respecting Cyprus independence.
Rather than Dr. Kutchuk
it was Denktash's TMT that controlled the Turkish Cypriots which in turn
was controlled by Turkey.
