I really think the EU should take this violation more seriously!

Perhaps we should be taking our complaints to the EU and not just the UN ....

And what's NATO going to blooming well do about their belligerent Tourko members?

[Cyprus has protested to UN Secretary General the ongoing violations of the international air traffic regulations and the national airspace of the Republic of Cyprus by military aircraft of the Turkish Air Force.

In a letter addressed to UNSG Ban Ki-moon, Permanent Representative of Cyprus to the UN Minas Hadjimichael, strongly protests the continued violations by Turkey and calls for their immediate cessation.

“Turkey’s policy of non-observance of rules and regulations governing international aviation continues to gravely jeopardize flight safety and perpetuate insecurity and apprehension on the island”, Hadjimichael notes.

Furthermore, he stresses that “Turkey’s systematic attempts to undermine the sovereignty and unity of the Republic of Cyprus by promoting an illegal secessionist entity, arrogating to itself, inter alia, the right to control part of the airspace of the Republic of Cyprus, further complicate the efforts to build trust and confidence between the two communities”. ]

Did they actually cross to the south or were they just in the TRNC airspace .
May be it was part of Nato exercises testing to see the allertness of the enemy.

Where do you pop up from all the time? I hadn't even finished posting that and you just had to contribute your nonsense!

[Liontaroui]

They cross over, yep.

[YFred]

They cross over, yep.

That sounds like a general statement. Did they cross the Green line or not and when and by how much?
You have my permission to shoot them down if they stray from the TRNC airspace.

These sort of problems occur when a solution cannot be negotiated, talks have now been going on for 17 months - what are they doing just drinking coffee?

You have my permission to shoot them down if they stray from the TRNC airspace.

During Taurus 1999 a plane performed a mock bombing run on Paphos airport, and sometime in August an F16 passed low over a Green line guardpost in the very general Lefka/Astromeritis area.
Better?

That was 11 years ago. Anything more recent? But they should not cross the green line. That's clearly wrong and is trying to intimidate.
Please also note that Taurus means attack in the old turkish lingo.
