Εγκληματικές πολιτικές καίνε Ελλάδα – Τουρκία – Κύπρο / Türkiye, Yunanistan ve Kıbrıs’ı yakan suç politikalardır

Αυτό που χρειαζόμαστε είναι πυροσβεστικά οχήματα και αεροπλάνα, αλληλεγγύη κι όχι άλλους πολεμικούς εξοπλισμούς. 

İhtiyacımız olan silahlanma yarışı değil; daha çok itfaiye aracı, yangın söndürme uçağı  ve uluslararası dayanışma!

by Athina Kariati and Ruyam Oztuna

While this article was being written, 10.000 turkishcypriots went on the streets against turkish intervention. A report will follow soon. 

Ersin Tatar, the candidate of the traditional right wing nationalist party UBP won the elections of the 18th of October in northern Cyprus. With 51.69% to 48.31% defeated Mustafa Akinci, the social democrat president that was in office since 2015. Northern Cyprus is a semi-presidential democratic republic. The role of the president is mainly to negotiate the national question and represent the “state” abroad. The government is formed by the party that has majority in the parliament, while the president has (almost) no authority to the internal regime.

the statement in english and turkish here and here

Η εύρεση κοιτασμάτων υδρογονανθράκων στο βυθό της Ανατολικής Μεσογείου προσθέτει ακόμη ένα λόγο ανταγωνισμού των αρχουσών τάξεων Ελλάδας, Τουρκίας και Κύπρου. Η σημερινή κρίση, που κρατά μήνες, είναι η χειρότερη από τον πόλεμο του 1974, τόσο σε σχέση με το χρονικό διάστημα που διαρκεί όσο και σε σχέση με τους κινδύνους που εγκυμονεί.
