Since Turkeys invasion and occupation of Cyprus just 10 months ago. and congressional action to embargo military assistance to Turkey. tragically little has changed for Cypruspolitically. diplomatically. and even more importantly in human terms. The Turkish occupation of at least 40 percent of the island continues. The .economy deteriorates every day. And some 200.000 people. both Turkish and Greek. remain refugees--driven from their lands and homes only a few miles away. For nearly 10 months they have lived in fields. along the roadsides. in tents. in schools and churches. with relatives and friendsand wherever they could find shelter and help. And today they still wait the opportunity to return to their livelihoods and homes. and to a normal and productive life.
