Given the large amounts of Russian cash there - I can see Russia stepping in to save Cyprus and then maintaining it as their own tax haven away from home
New Russian naval base in Cyprus allowing Russia to give up their Syrian one allowing the UN to initiate regime change. All very tidy.

That'll mean the British base will also close on Cyprus alongside the planned closure of the German ones - cue more cutbacks to the military
I Don't we use Cyrpus as a militray/air base? I'm sure the Russians would love to kick nato out of Cyprus.
Well, their politicians have unanimously voted against the cash grab. Guess the next step is the banks stay closed, the country goes bankrupt, the EU cry a lot and writes off the debt (ala Greece) and everybody loses ALL their money. Oh and apparently, we have sent a plane load of money out so, in a way, we are paying for it anyway.
As soon as those banks open its going to be chaos. Not one sole will leave their money in a Cypriot bank a minute longer than they have to. It's going to implode on Thursday.
Greek Cypriots are just like their bigger brothers on the mainland. Tax dodging, irresponsible and now throwing their toys out of the pram. God save the queen.
no its not, as the banks are still going to be closed thursday as well acording to the news.
wonder if the banks will get opened at all this week.
Cypriot officials have said the country's banks, which were closed to prevent mass withdrawals, will remain shut until at least Tuesday.

There must be some reason it exists, so what is the reason, what is the point or use in it?
very strange. last weekend the proposal was 6-10%, which then got rejected by the cypriot parliament.
now, they have already approved "capital restrictions" and are looking at a higher % fleecing of the savings accounts...
