"Stop the Dramatization" - ETAP Free Province of Famagusta Speaks Out Against Extreme Scenarios

The Tourism Development and Promotion Company (ETAP) of Free Famagusta expresses the opinion that there is unjustified dramatization of the situation regarding the risks potentially facing Cyprus due to the tension in the Middle East. ETAP reports that some hotel cancellations have been observed, but these mainly concern the immediate future and are not expected to significantly affect the summer tourist season. The company calls for self-restraint, calmness, and a realistic assessment of developments, emphasizing that the reproduction of extreme scenarios harms the economy and tourism. ETAP expresses hope that the situation in the Middle East will stabilize soon.
