They Threaten Their Security!

The Turkish Cypriot side views the recent National Guard video, released for the holidays, as a threat. The video includes wishes for the arrival of Cypriot ships at the ports of Kyrenia and Famagusta, which is interpreted as a provocation by the other side. Turkish Cypriot officials state that the projection of the video endangers the security of their "people" and demand clarification of the intention behind it. They argue that either Cyprus is demonstrating strength and the ability to "crush" them, or they are being threatened with words. The video has caused strong reactions in the occupied territories, with many considering it a move that escalates tensions in the region.
