If Israel wants its occupations to be treated like we treat the TRNC, then it should stop whining anytime someone says "sanctions."

The recent elections in the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus have gone under the radar in Western media. That's a shame because they are a big deal. A center-left candidate--Tufan Erhurman--ROUNDLY defeated the hardline nationalist President, 63% to 36%.+

Whilst I appreciate the contentious international situation of the TRNC, and that this is not the main issue right now, when politics should be set aside during an incident like this, but the BBCs coverage of North Cyprus is bloody awful. 1/

NEW: France and Cyprus signed a Status of Forces Agreement in Nicosia today, letting French troops train and operate on the island for what Nicosia insists are strictly "humanitarian purposes."
Türkiye warns it upsets the island's balance, while the TRNC calls the deal "null and void."

I used to live and work in North Cyprus. I covered the "reunification talks" extensively. It's time for global governments to put their big kid pants on and recognise that the TRNC isn't just going to stop existing because they close their eyes and fire those who visit.

Phased planning is being carried out to ensure the security of the TRNC in light of recent developments.
The deployment of F-16 aircraft to the island is one of the options being considered.

Curious as to what people's favourite non "standard" BBQ dishes are, for the UK as I appreciate a lot of these are likely standard elsewhere. My favourite is a trick a Turkish mate taught me in TRNC for skewering eggs in their shells and cooking them over the flame.
One of the many bright sides of both my wife and I having spent so much of our lives, together and independently, moving round the place is we do jazz up the whole "burger and sausages" BBQ. BBQ pineapple, banana and "boiled" eggs are far more likely

The Republic of Cyprus is the only internationally recognized Cypriot state. The Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus is recognized ONLY by Turkey. The TRNC is a Turkish puppet much like the Donetsk and Luhansk People’s Republics, and would never be allowed into NATO or other international orgs.
