Turkey continues its stance: “We will never approve the screening of ‘Famagusta’ on Netflix”

"We will never, ever allow the Greek Cypriot side's black propaganda operations," said the Chairman of the Digital Media Committee of the Grand National Assembly, calling on the platform to consider the sensitivities of the Turkish nation

Newsroom September 4 05:57

Turkey continues its opposition to the screening of the series Famagusta on Netflix, firmly stating that it does not approve of such an action.

The latest statement came from Hüseyin Yayman, a member of parliament and chairman of the Digital Media Committee of the Turkish Grand National Assembly, who described the series as propaganda from the Greek side regarding the Turkish invasion.

“We do not approve and will never approve the screening of this series on Netflix. It is one of the platforms with the most subscribers in Turkey and is also among the top 10 globally. We continue to hope that our nation’s sensitivities will be considered, and a solution will be found,” he emphasized.

The Turkish politician announced that once parliament reconvenes, they will summon Netflix’s representative in Turkey to the committee “to discuss how we will follow a roadmap.”

In any case, Ankara’s stance on the series, which is scheduled to air on Netflix on September 20, is categorically negative.

“We will never approve of the Greek Cypriot side unjustly redirecting the Cyprus issue through a surreal series disconnected from reality and guiding it with a propaganda operation. Cyprus is Turkish and will remain Turkish,” he stated.

Yayman called on the Turkish television and film industry to explain the Cyprus issue to the world, Europe, and the Greek Cypriot side, noting that it has state support. “Just as they propagate their unjust cause by making series, movies, and promoting propaganda through them, we don’t need that. We must tell the truth,” he said.
