"The records show that in 2015 a compliance manager at the Panama law firm Alcogal found that the Cypriot law firm helped a Russian billionaire and former senator, Leonid Lebedev, conceal ownership of four companies by listing law firm employees as owners of Lebedev’s entities."

We are deeply saddened by the passing of Ronald Inglehart, one of the greatest Political Scientists of our contemporary world, teacher to many, a true mastermind and the Founder of @WVS_Survey - one of his many outstanding legacies. Sincere condolences to his family & friends.

#corruption is a 'trending' topic in #Cyprus these days! What are Cypriots views on misuse of public power for private benefit? 2019 data show vast majority of Cypriots feel that corruption among civil service, state officials & business execs is pervasive #κυπρος #kibris (1/3)
Greek-Cypriots in particular, overwhelmingly express that corruption is prevalent. 54% of GC reported the highest score of ‘10’ & none reported the lowest score of ‘1’. Among TC, 24% reported the highest score of ‘10’ (2/3)
It's alarming given that this is public opinion before many of the scandals broke. These views likely fuel the mistrust Cypriots have of political institutions as they tend to be among least trusting in EU. Blog post with summaries in EN/GR/TR: c-pot.org (3/3)
How do Cypriots view role of #religion in public affairs? Does their religiosity translate to religious preferences in political processes?@WVS_Survey & @evs_values data (2006-2011) show that while there is belief in direct separation of religion & gvt, at the same time..(1/4)
However, half of GCs & 1/3 of TCs felt that politicians who do not believe in God are unfit for office. Similarly, 40% of GCs & 1/3 of TCs felt religion should take precedence over science when the two conflict. (3/4)
Can explain the initial rejection of #COVID19 restrictions by churches and many Greek-Cypriot people due to religious reasoning. (very) short thread #cyprus #κυπρος #kibris
Nearly all Cypriots consider themselves to be part of a religion, even though many say are not religious. Large majority of Cypriots state that god plays an important role in their life. Out of eleven #European countries, Cypriots rank 2nd. (2/3)
Why are religious values so prevalent? Existential threats can drive religiosity, esp among vulnerable ppl (eg in poor & failed states). Physical/psychological survival threats Cypriots face due to the conflict may drive religiosity. Blog post: c-pot.org (3/3)
Cypriots are more to the right than most of #EU on average. Greek-Cypriot women more to the right than men. In EU overall, men tend to be more to the right than women. Blog post & interactive visuals: bit.ly/35udlr1 #cyprus #κυπρος #kipris
