Watching this with with hawk eyes since long. There is lots of potential for a huge violent eruption in this, that will send shockwaves not just to the mediterranean region, but beyond.

And Germany once again seems to stand on the wrong side.

No one cares because no one is affected.

They had a 5 minute long issue on this subject in the news at 10. An expert was interviewet by the host and he said.

This has becoming a by-proxy war, where both side gets help from different countries.
The biggest fear is it will draw Iran into the conflict.

Why would Russia even care about what Cyprus does are does not do?

46 years is a long time for this beach to be closed except to the Turkish Military

Russia Says Northern Cyprus's Plans to Open Varosha Beach Unacceptable

Quote:

MOSCOW (REUTERS) - Russia's Foreign Ministry said on Wednesday it was seriously concerned by Northern Cyprus's plans to open Varosha beach, calling the decision to do so unacceptable.

Northern Cyprus said on Tuesday it will reopen the beach area of an abandoned resort in no-man's land, a move condemned by Greek Cypriots.

Varosha has been off limits along ceasefire lines to all but the Turkish military since 1974 and has stood as a bargaining chip in the decades-long dispute between Greek and Turkish Cypriots.

Famagusta is an eerie place or at least it was when I visited in 1984 whilst on honeymoon.

Just an exercise ... nothing to worry about. Russia testing someone perhaps

Quote:

This week Russia and six other countries are carrying out a largescale military exercise called Kavkaz-2020 (Caucasus 2020). This exercise will take place predominantly in Russia’s Southern Military District, a region that stretches from Russian-occupied Crimea in the west, to the Caspian Sea in the east, and the volatile North Caucasus in the middle. Certain parts of the exercise will take place outside Russia’s borders as well.

France-Turkey row reaches new highs after Erdoğan hurls insults at Macron

Watchout Macron, watch your back. If you keep up the anti-Erdogan rhetoric chances are you wont be president much longer. Germany's fuehrer Aunty Merkel and will protect her boyfriend and have you run out of town and have you replaced by someone more axis alliance friendly.

I've really got no idea on the subject other than to admit I cannot stand the guy.

I'm not much fonder of Macron neither tbh.

Erdogan has called on Turks to boycott French goods.

Meanwhile like every good women should, Merkel is keeping quiet and standing by her man Erdogan.

We stand together i EU....except if one of the member state have diplomatically problem with a country outside EU...then they are on their own.

Denmark was also quite alone in their Muhamad crisis in 2005-something. If I remember correctly the only support the Danish government got from EU was what I call mental support.

France warns citizens to be cautious as anger seethes in Muslim world over cartoons

Seems the last bastion of Liberté, égalité, fraternité on continental Europe will soon be a thing of the past. Bet he gets replaced by someone aligned with the goals of fuehrer Merkel and Germany's old friend and ally Turkey.

Brits were wise leaving the merkelreich when they did.
