Enclaved Greek Cypriots
Enclaved Greek Cypriots are the Greek Cypriots who have remained in enclaved villages in Northern Cyprus after the Turkish invasion of Cyprus in 1974.〔(Continuing concern for the enclaved Greek Cypriots in the occupied areas ), United Nations, 11 March 1999.〕 In 2014, their population was 343. While the enclaved Greek Cypriots are legally equal citizens, they have no right to vote or run in elections. The Greek Cypriots of Rizokarpaso cannot vote to choose their muhtar, instead, Northern Cyprus and the Republic of Cyprus each appoint one. ==Notable cases== Eleni Foka was one of three Greek Cypriot primary school teachers in Karpasia, whose safety was called into question.〔(Early day motion 734, Eleni Foka ), Houses of Parliament website, 2 March 1994.〕〔(Η Δασκάλα των κατεχομένων μιλάει στο ΣΚΑΪ.gr (Eleni Foka television interview on Sky) ) Skai.gr, 8 August 2010.
