Public opinion: How do we solve the migrant issue in Cyprus? | Cyprus Mail

A couple of weeks after a violent anti-migrant protest, we asked a selection of people on the streets of Nicosia for their views on the migrant issue.
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.

Cyprus will lose its culture, its language and eventually its Faith.

[@EliasGeorgiou-h7j]

So we welcome milions of muslim in Cyprus and we go to Syria

[@annetteanastassi7433]

If we take the attitude of these people, it will become uncontrollable, as it is in England.

Thats just one of the usual stupid arguments of globalist selfappointed elites that "you need immigrants to thrive economically or to do jobs that arent very appealing to locals". The truth is that every nation so far managed to do these jobs without foreign help, it is logical that these jobs will be done by locals if sufficient salary is paid. Mass immigration have never brought any prosperity to any country, especially if it is from a different cultural and religious background. It only brings conflicts, raise in crime rates, deterioration of safety, economic stagnation or downfall. Cyprus is a TINY island and community with a precious, distinctive culture that has a full right to protect itself from being destroyed or dilluted. Cyprus dont owe anything to anyone, it never had any colonies and if there is a need for humanitarian aid it can be done in a country of origin, mass immigration is not a humanitarian aid, it is an organised, paid for by the German organisations human trafficking with a clear purpose of dilluting and destroying nation states in Europe to eventually create a single european state which would be a much easier task then. Cyprus dont loose your common sense and survival instinct just like Western Europe did to their doom.

Every country have the same thing: People - love immigrants, who take their dirty job and hate those who do nothing or the opposite have very high income (because of housing crisis and life cost increase) Government - loves rich immigrants, hate low income ones (because less jobs for low income locals), and helps lazy immigrants (I don't know why)

I do think families should be looked after

I've been here for a long time, and I love Cyprus, it's true that some of us do stupid things here but we shouldn't mix everyone up

[@JanSobieskiC]

You are not welcome here islamist. Dont come here

[@olbiomoiros]

Everywhere lol. They should be deported

[@djolongendja2999]

we must be grateful for what Cyprus does for us I say it often, respecting their cultures, but some Cypriots look at us as if we were less than nothing but some Cypriots are very good towards foreigners, in 1974 many of them Cyprus went to Africa and many left children there and today some insults because you are migrants it's really astonishing,

[@katywebb7393]

Theres a difference between fleeing murdering raping soldiers in a one sided war and a country flooded with economic migrants with no jobs and nowhere to live. Crime is up and nobody is safe in Cyprus anymore.

[@gutss8608]

Let Cyprus be Cyprus. They should have no foreigners at all
