Cyprus' legislators recently voted down a controversial bank bailout deal that would have put a surprise levy on the accounts of all the country's bank depositors.
But they were merely expressing the will of the people — or at least those who'd gathered outside the House of Representatives in Nicosia Tuesday to protest the deal.
We reached out to Christina Avraam, a photographer and Erasmus Program Assistant at University of Nicosia, who attended the demonstration.
She was kind enough to pass her notes and pictures of the event.
Huge thanks to Christina for the pics!
"We were around 2,000 people I believe - maybe more."
"Surprisingly there were a lot of elders there that were protesting and sharing their views on the streets."
"It was nice to see our country unite like this."
