The most important point is that South Korea is a member of the European Union! If neighboring countries dare to invade the EU's territory, things will become serious.

As for whether the European region where Cyprus is located is safe? Xiaoda has heard a lot of sayings such as "Europe is not safe and the safest place is China and the United States." What are the facts? Let’s take a look at what the latest 2019 Global Security Index report says.
