Cyprus: Voters Boost Far Right in Parliamentary Election The results of last Sunday's parliamentary election in Cyprus have sent shockwaves through the island nation.
For the first time, a far right party has entered the country's legislature, casting a long shadow over traditional centrist forces that have dominated Cypriot politics for decades.
ELAM, an offshoot of Greece's banned Golden Dawn party, secured 11% of the vote and is now the third largest party in the Cyprus parliament.
