A population exchange agreement (the Third Vienna Agreement) was realized between Greek and Turkish Cypriots under the auspices of United Nations on 2 August 1975.
The articles of the Third Vienna Agreement related to the population exchange are the following:
1. The Turkish Cypriots at present in the south of the island will be allowed, if they want to do so, to proceed north with their belongings under an organized programme and with the assistance of UNFICYP.
2. The Greek Cypriots at present in the north of the island are free to stay and that they will be given every help to lead a normal life, including facilities for education and for the practice of their religion, as well as medical care by their own doctors and freedom of movement in the north.
3. The Greek Cypriots at present in the north who, at their own request and without having been subjected to any kind of pressure, wish to move to the south, will be permitted to do so.
4. UNFICYP will have free and normal access to Greek Cypriot villages and habitations in the north.
5. In connection with the implenentation of the above agreement, priority will be given to the reunification of families, which may also involve the transfer of a number of Greek Cypriots, at present in the south, to the north.
Aftermath of the Agreement
Some of the Greek Cypriots (those in Rizokarpaso, Agios Andronikos, Agia Triada) agreed to live under Turkish Cypriot administration and remained in Northern Cyprus, based on the second article of the agreement.
Besides Greek Cypriots, the Maronites in Asomatos, Karpasia and Kormakitis agreed to live in the north.
