Cyprus Banking Crisis: cyprus18

NICOSIA, CYPRUS. Foreign domestic workers from the Philippines enter Tripoli Park on March 24, 2013. As the IMF, the EU and Cyprus hammer out a deal in Brussels to save the Cypriot banking sector, known for its abundance of offshore accounts, many in Cyprus have withdrawn as much as they can from their accounts at ATMs and are fearful for what the coming week might hold; domestic workers say that many of their friends have been sent home to their native countries as their bosses struggle to pay them.
