Why the Greek flags?

What are those GREEK FLAGS doing at the parade?

Absolutely nothing to do with Cyprus Independence from Britain.

It should be treason to fly the flag of another nation on OUR INDEPENDENCE DAY, since clearly we are still not yet considered by many of our “citizens” as an independent nation. We MUST wean ourselves off this drug, it will poison us in the end.

The Cyprus Mail is the only English-language daily newspaper published in Cyprus. It was established in 1945 and today, with its popular and widely-read website, the Cyprus Mail is among the most trusted news sites in Cyprus. The newspaper is not affiliated with any political parties and has always striven to maintain its independence. Over the past 70-plus years, the Cyprus Mail, with a small dedicated team, has covered momentous events in Cyprus’ modern history, chronicling the last gasps of British colonial rule, Cyprus’ truncated independence, the coup and Turkish invasion, and the decades of negotiations to stitch the divided island back together, plus a myriad of scandals, murders, and human interests stories that capture the island and its -people. Observers describe it as politically conservative.
