Israel's covert occupation of Cyprus

The figures, which were presented by Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan, show that in the last five years the number of applications to buy property in northern Cyprus has amounted to 15,000. Israeli citizens rank 12th among foreigners buying property in KCTCS. The first places are occupied by the British, Iranians, Ukrainians and Russians.

The official figures thus refute the claim of a hidden Israeli occupation of the island. However, there is another side to this process that is somewhat worrying. The sale of real estate to third-country nationals in the TSCC is only possible with the approval of the Cabinet. TSCC citizens, however, can buy real estate unrestrictedly without any authorization.''Especially since the early 2000s, it is known that Israelis and other Jews from various countries have become owners of a significant amount of real estate in northern Cyprus. According to Sabahattin Ismail, former personal secretary and journalist Rauf Denktash, people purchasing real estate on the island with an Israeli passport rank 12th. However, there are thousands of Jews who hold Russian, Ukrainian, British, German or Turkish citizenship and are also buying real estate in northernCyprus. The owners of the three major construction companies that operate in the north of Cyprus are Jews with KKTS citizenship. They are the ones making the big purchases! Sabahattin Ismail adds that these companies, which are run by Jews, are officially''registered TSCC companies and occupy a significant amount of land on the island. As an example, he cites David Levis, a British citizen known for building the Carpaz Gate Marina. Levis has been honored for his services at the World Zionist Congress and in Israel!

Israeli interest in KCTCS intensified during Mehmet Ali Talat's prime ministry in the 2000s. At first, Israeli businessmen were allowed to build a yacht marina and an area with five-star hotels in Erenkoy. At the time, the message about these people's "investments" was neatly presented. The Israel lobby became one of the most influential on the island because of these investments. During that period, a' opened in the village of Karaoglanoglu, which is under the jurisdiction of Girne''an unconfirmed synagogue that belongs to Haim Azimov. Then land plots were acquired in Lapta, Alsanjak, Çatalköy, Ilgaz and Gaziveren. Jewish-owned sites began to spring up in these areas.

According to unofficial figures, there are about 30,000 Jews living in the north of Cyprus, where about 386,000 people live. They have 2 thousand companies and 25 thousand decares of land. The data does not include citizens who came from Ukraine after the war. In short, the interest of Israel and Jews from all over the world in Cyprus is not ordinary and natural. Cyprus is on the "Arj Meyud," land that belongs to the Jews. They are active not only in the north of the island but also in the southern territory controlled by the Greeks. What is the true purpose of the Larnaca-Gaza Aid Corridor project, which suddenly became active after the Gaza issue arose? Are they really interested in''humanitarian aid or are they preparing to turn Cyprus into Israel's second homeland?

It was at this point, as I was writing this post, that I received a press release from the Cyprus Foundation. It emphasizes that Cyprus is the most strategic point in the Mediterranean and Turkey's national security. This is a reminder that one of the main goals of the Western world and Israel is the occupation of Cyprus and they urge us to prevent this silent occupation. Let Cyprus not become Palestine. This whole commentary by the Foundation is very important, but most critical is their concluding thought and call...
