Drousiotis claims Rosicrucian conspiracy in Cypriot politics
Writer and parliamentary candidate Makarios Drousiotis sparked a political storm by claiming that politicians, judges, lawyers and businesspeople from Cyprus and Greece are members of the 'Brotherhood of the Rosicrucians'. He accuses this mystical organization of operating across borders, controlling the state and hindering its proper functioning. The Rosicrucians are a philosophical tradition that emerged in 17th-century Europe.
