Nothing better than a Cyprus sunset to clear your mind.
If the sunset has some flamingo, even better.

The naval base from Mari and the air base in Paphos will be upgraded.
Looks like the authorities will seek help in US to do it.
Also, the president of the Republic said joining NATO is in the cards.
I am just curious who will control the island in the end. #cyprus #nato #us

Not a very good news to start the week.
“Cyprus is much more exposed to an attack. Russia could arm Hezbollah or another proxy group through Iran to launch an attack. One concern is the Houthis being armed to carry out strikes, and they are close to Cyprus,”.

We were having some elections in Romania. And then, out of the blue, we don't have anymore because they cancel it. 
We will try to choose a new president sometimes in March. 

And they cancel it because they say they found out that Russia was trying to "get the position" for some guy who came out..

"România a devenit o prioritate pentru acțiunile ostile ale Rusiei, existând un interes în creștere la Kremlin pentru a influența societatea românească în context electoral prin propagandă, dezinformare, sprijinirea unor candidați eurosceptici și alimentarea unor mișcări antisistem, conchide SIE."

Iron Dome System in Cyprus. There is no official confirmation, but it makes sense. 
Israel wants another location to defend its territories, and Cyprus is in the perfect place for that.

In more than 30 years of democracy I've never lived something like this.
To be scared that Romania will be again under the Russian influence.

Cyprus wants to join NATO.
But a part of the island is occupied by onother NATO country and Limassol is "packed" with Russian people & money.
In the meantime, local authorities plan direct flights with China and India.
And let's not forget the two British military bases on the island. #cyprus

"Shocked" is not a strong enough word to describe how many romanians feel these days.
Going back 30 years and live like in the comunism times it is not an option.
People like Georgescu should not be let to run for public functions in the first place.
