India expresses concern about Cyprus' Varosha issue ANI 22 Jul 2021, 10:55 GMT+10 New York [US], July 22 (ANI): Permanent Representative of India to United Nations TS Tirumurti on Wednesday expressed concern about the transfer of parts of a coastal town of Varosha to Turkish Cypriot control. This comes as Turkey plans to partially reopen the fenced-off town in the Cypriot city of Famagusta for further resettlement. The decision has met with rebuke from the Greek Cypriots, who accused Turkey of organising a land grab. Other countries have also expressed concerns regarding Turkey's intention to reopen and resettle an area constituting some 3.4 per cent of Varosha.
