      Considering that turkey has veto power on who joins nato and cypriot politicians can be bought for the going price of a taxinopita + galatoui combo, I think they got nothing to worry about.

      Is everyone just forgetting that Turkey will veto this at least until they get state recognition for the occupied side?

      Today, I went to a Secret Conclave of Rich Russians Ruining Cyprus for Everybody Else.

      They were quaking in their boots! Quaking, I tell ya. “Anything but NATO!”, they screamed.

      I don’t get it. So what if we join nato? What will change for these Russians?

      I think most Russians (who are not “rich Russians”, I think real rich Russians just use their Cypriot passport for freedom of movement and don’t live in Cyprus) here in Cyprus support the western outlook and NATO

      The correct title is not «Russians are worried» but «Rich Russians and Russian officials are worried», because the rest of the Russians either live here and enjoy the island life, or have never been to Cyprus at all.)

      Bank of Cyprus has also entered a new level of low: While your residency permit renewal is processed, they will not allow account crediting (receiving salary, for example).

      So in a nutshell, at the worst, the government can now delay – through Roulla’s lethargy or by ordering process intervention – renewals and starve the people it has accepted through legal process and collected their fees, taxes, contributions happily, to the point when they leave.

      Great toolset they enact for themselves. Would be a shame if the judicial base could be used for political allegiance as it happened in Canada or the debanking of the crypto-sphere.
