🗣️“Cyprus Above All – Strengthening Our Nation at Home and Abroad”
President of the Republic Nikos Christodoulides, addressing the World Conference of Overseas Cypriots, underlined that *“our party is Cyprus above all”*. He stressed the need for constant reinforcement of the Republic’s strength, both internally and internationally, with the ultimate goal of resolving the Cyprus problem, achieving liberation, and reunification.
The President highlighted the challenges of operating in an “anarchic international system dominated by interests,” reminding that Cyprus, as a small state under occupation, must work tirelessly to upgrade its status and prove that cooperation with it serves the interests of its partners.
He referred to the Amalthea initiative as a rare example of Cyprus being recognized internationally for something positive, and emphasized the importance of the upcoming Cyprus Presidency of the EU as an opportunity to showcase the country as a contributor to European integration and solutions, beyond the Cyprus problem itself.
Christodoulides pointed out that Cyprus needs a strong economy, social reforms, effective migration management, and enhanced deterrent capabilities. He stressed the importance of strengthening ties with the United States, the UK, and other international actors, noting: “Every decision we take aims at strengthening Cyprus internally and externally. The strength of Hellenism lies in its people.”

💻Cyprus Updates Journalism Ethics Code to Include AI Guidelines
The Press Ethics Committee in Cyprus has introduced new provisions regarding the use of Artificial Intelligence in journalism, along with a set of guidelines for its responsible application. According to the Committee, AI tools can support journalists by enhancing accuracy, objectivity, impartiality, and reliability, but they must not replace human judgment or serve as primary sources of information.
Journalists are required to fact-check and verify all AI-generated content before using it in any stage of reporting. Editorial oversight and human review are mandatory to ensure that AI-assisted material complies with both general and specific provisions of the Ethics Code. Special attention must be given when AI retrieves content that may be subject to copyright or other restrictions.
The Committee stresses that journalists should be fully trained in AI tools before use, and emphasizes that AI should facilitate faster production and analysis of diverse content, while human oversight remains essential. AI is a supportive tool, not a substitute, for the journalist’s role in informing the public responsibly.

❌Juvenile Crime Soars 170% in Northern Cyprus Over Five Years
The number of minors involved in criminal activities in Northern Cyprus has surged by 170% over the past five years, according to Asli Murat, chair of the Human Rights Committee of the Turkish Cypriot Bar Association.
While 47 children faced the justice system in 2020, the number jumped to 127 in 2024. Most offenders are boys, accounting for over 90% of cases, with theft, violence, and assaults being the most common offenses. Murat warns that some minors may be exploited by adults due to lighter sentences.
She also criticized the justice system for relying mainly on imprisonment and bail, with little use of social services, probation, or rehabilitation. Despite a juvenile wing being built in prisons, it has never operated due to staff shortages, and modern restorative programs remain undeveloped. Murat stresses that without preventive measures and child protection, juvenile crime will continue to rise.

👛Cyprus Probes Resale of Free Items from “Green Points” Online__
__
Authorities in Cyprus discovered that items meant for free distribution at “Green Points,” including furniture and books, were being sold on online platforms. Individuals often claimed financial hardship to justify taking multiple items, visiting locations repeatedly and collecting large quantities.
Green Points management is introducing stricter controls, including dedicated distribution zones at the Nicosia locations in Malounta and Linou, to prevent abuse. Authorities are also concerned about professional misuse, such as construction workers diverting waste to Green Points to avoid fees, and safety risks from removed appliance components.
Weight limits remain in place — 100 kg per visit, one ton over six months — but some continue to exploit the system, prompting calls for tighter oversight.
