good
i am content with that
whether he means it literally
or is figuratively replacing the line with the buffer zone
no matter
so it seems to me the 4 most major de facto tripoints we have always
known & loved on cyprus should remain completely unaffected by the
complication of a green line that has purely historical meaning & no
longer any actual military force
& moreover by a green line whether real or metaphorical that may or
may not fall within the buffer zone in the moments of tripointing
truth
but still cant be sure
need to see the right map
it could be a real issue or a non issue
