#HandsOffCyprus Update
People
across the UK have been emailing their local MPs and calling on
them to publicly speak out against Turkey's unacceptable
demands towards Cyprus. MPs from Aberdeen all the way down to
Exeter have received emails about the latest developments in
Cyprus. So far, over a third of MPs have been contacted by
constituents about Cyprus (check out the highlighted
constituencies in the map below) and many MPs are beginning to
reply to the emails. If you have already received a response from
your MP, please feel free to share it with us: enquiries@cypriotfederation.org.uk
As
more and more UK Cypriots email their MPs, now is the time to
make sure you and your family have made their voices heard
using our automated form and pre-prepared letter - www.cypriotfederation.org.uk/mp

Since
we launched the campaign, yet more threatening actions and rhetoric
have come from Turkey towards Cyprus - the article below
highlights some recent developments. Our community needs
to make its voice heard on the crucial issue of Security and
Guarantees and withdrawal of troops. We need our MPs to publicly
speak out against Turkey’s unacceptable demands and insist that
Turkey, once and for all, takes its hands off Cyprus.
We've
made it simple to email your MP through our website: www.cypriotfederation.org.uk/mp.
Our website will find your MP, their contact details and prepare
a template email - it takes less than 30 seconds and can make a
big difference for Cyprus! #HandsOffCyprus

Yet more
threatening actions from Turkey towards Cyprus
|
|
|
|
Recent
developments in Turkey have yet again shown why the
#HandsOffCyprus campaign is so important. A major Turkish
political party, which is President Erdogan's AKP Party's
coalition partner, has included Cyprus as part of a map of Turkey
in the run up to the elections in June 2018.

In
addition, Turkey is now reported to be drilling in Cyprus' EEZ.
Turkey's Foreign Minister, speaking recently in Antalya said, “we
are also starting to drill around Cyprus now." He went on to
say that, “you know that in the past we prevented some drillings,
including (one) by the Italians. But we will also drill
in these areas.”
