    [03] Government Spokesman - CFSP

    by Myria Antoniadou Geneva, Jul 28 (CNA) -- Government Spokesman Michalis Papapetrou stressed today that Cyprus' participation in all European institutions, including that of Common Foreign and Security Policy, is important to the country's security.

    Speaking from Geneva, where he is participating in the Cypriot delegation to the UN-led proximity talks on Cyprus, Papapetrou also expressed the conviction the EU would not complain for non-participation of Cypriot officers in its forces, if President Glafcos Clerides' proposal for demilitarisation of the island is accepted.
