I am in complete uncertainty ... no one knows ... what will happen each day. or what to expect from the Turkish conqueror. I have neither the courage nor the appetite to find land to cultivate to live. Mr. President. I visited Cyprus in December 1975. and saw firsthand the tragic plight of the refugees. Their pride and strength has helped them endure the situation. but their spirit is discouraged and they feel increasingly resigned to their situation. I cannot. in good conscience. support repeal of the embargo with the certain knowledge that it means a continuation of the hardships these people have suffered already.
