Uprising in Turkey over the series Famagusta which is displayed on Netflix.

As broadcast from Istanbul by Manolis Kostidisthe Turkish Foreign Ministry issued a statement stating: “The series entitled ‘Famagusta‘, which will be broadcast on a digital platform, serves the black propaganda of the ‘Greek Cypriot administration of Southern Cyprus’ (Republic of Cyprus) by distorting historical events.

This series is a great disrespect to the honored memories of the Turkish Cypriots who were massacred by Greek Cypriot gangs in the period 1963-74. Such futile attempts to portray the events differently from what happened, further strengthens our determination to fight for our national cause of Cyprus. We pay tribute to our Cypriot veterans and our heroes.”

Justice and Development Party spokesman Omer Celik said: “It is very worrying that a series that distorts the ‘1974 Peace Operation’ in Cyprus and makes propaganda for the Greek Cypriot side (Republic of Cyprus) will be broadcast on a cinema platform by September 20. We cannot accept that the intervention that brought peace and established justice is targeted by Greek propaganda. Through this series, the ‘Peace Operation in Cyprus’, the heroic Turkish soldier, peace and justice cannot be targeted.”
