Montage or Hybrid War? A Major Scandal Still Unfolds

Despite claims of montage and hybrid warfare, the video causing a political earthquake in Cyprus reveals a network of quid pro quo funding in exchange for favors to business interests. The conversations included in the video, even if edited, present outrageous references to collusion and attempts to influence the President. Specifically, cases are mentioned where assistance was offered to businessmen in exchange for funding the President's election campaign or contributions to funds managed by the government. Despite the Presidential Office's attempts to downplay the issue, citizens are reacting strongly, believing that the essence of the scandal is not covered by claims of external intervention.
