Yet here you are, starting it.
People living in Cyprus consume goods produced by western corporations that exploit cheap labor markets in countries subjugated by the west. This has fuck all to do with trade. It's imperialism and colonialism where the west invades countries, overthrows sovereign governments, runs coups, death squads, and so on, in order to exploit the populations of these countries. Many books have been written on the subject, and one has to be shamefully ignorant to not understand this.
I think you're substituting age with intellectual lethargy in this statement.
