[02] Defence Ministers - Cyprus - Greece
Athens, Sep 18 (CNA) -- Cyprus and Greece laid down the basis to further
strengthen ties in the framework of a joint defence pact, agreed between
the two countries in 1993, providing for sea, air and land cover for Cyprus
in the event of a fresh Turkish offensive.
The respective defence ministers said enhanced defence cooperation
does not obstruct the promotion of regional peace and added that defence
policy cannot be influenced by junctures.
