  George Osborne vowed today that those serving  in Britain’s military or government in Cyprus will be protected after European  finance chiefs ordered an unprecedented raid on personal bank  accounts.

  Up to 60,000 British savers are to lose  thousands of pounds each as expats in Cyprus have their savings decimated in  part of a painful bid to bail out the bankrupt island.

  The Chancellor said the financial situation  in Cyprus was ‘an example of what happens if you don’t show the world that you  can pay your way’, adding: ‘We are not part of the bailout.’
  –
  However he told BBC One’s Andrew Marr  Show: ‘The Cypriot banks in Britain are not going to be included in this bank tax.  It’s a very difficult situation for people who live in  Cyprus.
  –
  ‘But for people serving in our  military and  government out in Cyprus, we’re going to compensate anyone  who is affected by  this bank tax – people who are doing their duty for  our country.’
  –
  Britons have about £1.7billion of deposits in  Cyprus and could lose up to £170million. The Cypriot government has agreed to  seize up to ten per cent of savings and use the money to bail out the  island’s  crisis-hit banking system. The move sparked panic and violent protests  yesterday as crowds desperately tried to withdraw their money at cash machines.
  –
  Restrictions have been imposed to stop   people emptying their accounts or moving their money out of the country  following the deal with other eurozone finance  ministers, under which  ordinary  citizens’ deposits will be directly  raided for the first time.
  –
  One furious expat said: ‘This is plain theft.  I’d love to hear someone explain to me why it isn’t.’ And one of the 3,000 British service  personnel based on the island said: ‘I stand to lose €4,000 [£3,500]  We’ve  tried to save quite hard while we are here – that’s been thrown  back in our  faces.’
  –
  Cypriot president Nicos Anastasiades,  who  agreed to the raid following ten-hour talks with European finance  chiefs, said  it was necessary because Cyprus was in a ‘state of  emergency’ and failure to  enact the Brussels plan would be ‘catastrophic’.
  –
  Under the deal, all bank deposits over €100,000 will be hit with a levy of 9.9 per cent. Those with smaller  savings  will pay 6.75 per cent. The raid will raise €5.8billion, which will  be added to a €10billion bailout from Brussels.
