EUROPE
- CYPRUS: Turkey provoked a new crisis with Cyprus with plans to extend its illegal occupation of part of the island to include an area called Varosha, a beach area that has been abandoned after Ankara expelled Greek Cypriots from the northern part of the island. The move has been condemned by Russia, the EU and UN. The provocation is of importance to the region, as Israel is becoming a key ally of Cyprus and Greece with a new gas deal (that collides with the interests of Turkey).
