    [02] UN Security Council - UNFICYP

    Nicosia, Jun 15 (CNA) - The Security Council has extended the UN peace- keeping force in Cyprus (UNFICYP) mandate for another six months, after the government of the Republic gave its consent following a diplomatic battle not to include an addendum to the Secretary-General's report with a Turkish Cypriot demand for separate consultations with UNFICYP.

    Nicosia, Jun 15 (CNA) - Many MPs from Britain and other Council of Europe (CoE) member states will seek to have Turkey expelled if it continues to flout the European Court of Human Rights ruling in the case of Greek Cypriot Titina Loizidou, a British MP has said.
