Tatar outraged Netflix will show Famagusta series

Turkish Cypriot leader Ersin Tatar was outraged on Sunday over a decision of streaming service Netflix to show the series ‘Famagusta’.

The series covers what happened in the summer of 1974 during the Turkish invasion and is a dramatic adaptation that follows a family also trying to find a child that went missing in their attempt to flee.

Tatar called on Netflix to think twice, saying that it distorts the facts of 1974, when as he said, “the Turkish army made a short peace operation on the island”.
