Summary
Cyprus plans to seek guarantees from the UK that its military bases on the island cannot be used unilaterally for offensive strikes under a potential future government led by Nigel Farage. Concerns have been raised by senior Cypriot and British officials, as Reform UK currently leads in opinion polls and might adopt a different approach to the bases than the current Labour government. The issue is expected to be raised with London once the war in the region ends.
