The flag of Cyprus has a picture of Cyprus on it. The message is that the EU member Greek Cyprus is the whole Cyprus and the only Cyprus, and its borders can be seen right on its flag. Same reason Kosovo put a picture of Kosovo on their flag. The EU has its own EU peacekeeping mission in Kosovo, EULEX. If NATO pulls out of Kosovo, the EU will take over like they did in Bosnia.
Thanks Tailgunner Joe. I appreciate the insight. I don’t know the nitty gritty about those places.
