Go look up the London Agreement.

I missed where it said Turkey can invade Cyprus. Did I read it too quick?

I read: "They likewise undertake to prohibit, as far as lies within their power, all activity having the object of promoting directly or indirectly either the union of the Republic of Cyprus with any other State, or the partition of the Island." However, I don't think that international law recognizes a right for states to unilaterally invade another state.

I also missed the line where it says these agreements can never be modified by the people of Cyprus.

The agreements are, of course, a piece of typical British opression in her "Balance of Power" schemes to run the world which have already caused such misery. See in re. this point, "Danzig", "Fiume", "Memel", "Belgium", "Polish Corridor", "Parition of Palestine", "South Tyrol", "Silesia", "Sudentenland", "Yalta Agreement", etc.

Interpret away. That says do what you have to.

You read it too quick, or maybe speed has little bearing on comprehension in some instances.

But I give you credit for actually looking it up.
