Hundreds of millions of euro bank notes arrived to Cyprus per airplane, Cypriot media reported. The plane had taken off from Frankfurt and landed on the island in the afternoon.
A huge police operation was staged to carry the bank notes and distribute them to several banks on the island as they will open again tomorrow, Thursday, after a week’s closure.
5 billion euro in four containers have landed on the island from ECB. A long convoy of armored cars, armed men and police helicopters took the money to the treasure of the Central bank of Cyprus.
PS I assume all these money was sent to Cyprus by the ELA liquidity support mechanism of the European Central Bank. ?
