Turkish Cypriot taxpayers are grappling with a hefty monthly burden of 10 million TL (€264,620) to cover Ercan Airport’s soaring electricity costs, as revealed by Ahmet Tugcu, leader of the KibTek workers’ trade union. The airport’s holding company, T&T, only pays basic rates while accruing significant debt, raising serious concerns about transparency and fairness in financial practices that impact the public.
