It is with deep personal connection that I express my concern over the absence of "FAMAGUSTA" from Netflix's programming. The show, centered around the Turkish invasion of Cyprus in 1974, holds immense significance for Greek nationals like me and those of Greek-Cypriot descent. This invaluable piece of history has been omitted from a platform that reaches a global audience, thereby restricting our ability to share important historical narratives.

"FAMAGUSTA" is not simply a television show; it symbolizes the shared experiences of Greek families and friends profoundly impacted by the events of the invasion. The atrocities committed during the invasion resulted in significant casualties. The Turkish invasion displaced over 160,000 Greek-Cypriots who were the vast majority in the region prior to the invasion. As such, "FAMAGUSTA" serves as a poignant reminder of a time of crisis.

Excluding "FAMAGUSTA" from Netflix's repertoire is akin to silencing a part of history that admittedly brings pain, but also contributes to a broader understanding of complex political and social dynamics that still permeate our world today. It is unfair to let politics dictate the sharing and learning of such critical narratives.

We call upon Netflix to recognize the importance of this show and the significance it carries for Greeks worldwide. We seek to implore Netflix to include "FAMAGUSTA" in their programming, not merely as an addition to their catalogue, but as a beacon of historical truth and a stepping stone for comprehensive dialogue around past grievances.
