The Jewish Community of Cyprus is planning a tree planting event in honor of Donald Trump, which has sparked reactions in Larnaca. The organizers did not inform the Municipality about the event, scheduled for November 23, 2025. Parents of a local school reacted strongly and sought clarifications from the authorities. It is noted that the tree planting will take place in a public traffic island and there will be no signs. The Municipality is reviewing the permit and signage placement.
