There is certain disorientation when entering the military parts of a sovereign base area (unlike Guantanamo Bay, there are roads running through the territory and even through the military camps themselves, which are open to traffic from Cyprus). In particular, the road names in the military camps are all very English, like "Worcester Road". Civilian laws are enacted by the British civilian authorities, but are patterned on those of the Republic of Cyprus. Many Cypriots work in the SBAs, mainly for the British authorities or as farmers, or for a few local businesses. But only those Cypriots with a local connection are permitted to live there, such as those who live in Akrotiri village or in the outskirts of villages neighbouring the bases.
The villages of Xylotimbou and Ormidhia, in the Republic of Cyprus, are enclaves surrounded by Dhekelia SBA. The Dhekelia Power Station, which is divided by a British road into two parts, also belongs to Cyprus. The northern part is an enclave like the two villages, whereas the southern part is located by the sea and therefore not an enclave —yet it has no territorial waters of its own [1].
The Sovereign Bases in Cyprus are an overseas territory, but instead of having a Governor, like other such territories, it has an Administrator, whom, while appointed by the Queen, is responsible to the Ministry of Defence, not to the Foreign and Commonwealth Office. Since May 9, 2003, the administrator has been Major General Peter Pearson.
A sizeable antenna (probably an over the horizon radar) was erected within the Akrotiri base, raising concern for the effect on local wildlife and on the health of people living in Limassol.
Ayios Nikolaos, in the WSBA, is a listening station of the intelligence network ECHELON.
The bases have a complex relationship with the European Union as governed by various treaties. See Sovereign bases on Cyprus.
Cyprus has shown increasing opposition to the use and existence of the bases. Cypriot officials claim that the bases take up a large amount of territory that could be used for civilian development. There has also been a call upon the British government to fulfill its financial obligations to Cyprus. Estimates for this range from several hundred thousand to over one billion Euros.
