Pretty sure that's old news at this point. We even have made a few jokes about the island becoming the prime location for spies.

Haha must have been last week's heat wave that made me (and probably my newspaper editor as well) miss that. I just read it in today's paper in the umpteenth Greek drama background article.

Sorry for the old news  :D

By "old news", I mean not even "last week news", I mean "several months ago". Not sure when exactly, but I distinctively remember that.

Spoiler: pic always relevant (click to show/hide)
This is one of those dangerous situations that comes off as a bit ridiculous and funny if you think about it; an island full of Russian, British, Turkish, Cypriot and EU soldiers, spies and shills.

Also it's Royal Air Force, not Royal British Airforce.

Relevant part:
Quote
The Bank of Russia is buying as much as $200 million daily to boost reserves to $500 billion, a process it estimates may take from five to seven years. It’s purchased about $7.4 billion since announcing its policy shift on May 13.
To all people who were predicting that Russia would ran out of monetary reserves: have a nice day.

Here we can see how Russian central bank reserves gain 1.4 billions weekly :D

On another note the oil price is set to drop further in the near future, especially if Iran gets it's deal. That might be problematic.

Guys it's a ruse, Greece has a plan to use Russian military assets for its bailout. The plan is this.
Step 1: Russian military base on Crete. 
Step 2: step 2 claim Russians are removing kebab.   
Step 3: 'local militia' take control of base citing protection of Turkish Crete population. 
Step 4: sell off new Russian toys to turkey
Step 5: bulldoze military bases and plant feta trees

It would have the best red lights district in the entire world.

That seems like reason enough to go through with it. It gets my vote.

Greece's biggest pornography producer, Dimitris Sirinakis, has announced that all porn on his Sirina channel will be free until an agreement is reached with Europe, our business reporter Joe Miller informs us.

Do not expect any more updates on this.
