This is theft. If you are a retiree on a fixed income, how do you plan your expenses with the potential theft of anywhere from 7 - 40% of savings it's taken you a lifetime to accumulate looming in the background?
If Cyprus can't pay it's bills now, how does a new loan help? Does Cyprus have a hidden tech industry that will explode and grow it out of it's debt problem?
