Al Gore - Statement on Cyprus
Nicosia, Oct 27 (CNA) -- US Vice President and Democratic candidate for the
Presidency Al Gore has pledged to make Cyprus one of his foreign policy
priorities if elected, stressing that his administration "will continue to
fully support the relevant UN Security Council resolutions calling for the
establishment of a bizonal, bicommunal federation uniting Cyprus".
In a news release and a letter to Andrew Athens, National Chairman of the
United Hellenic American Congress (UHAC) and World President of the World
Council of Hellenes Abroad (SAE), Gore expresses the hope "present UN-
sponsored talks will resolve the bitter differences that have long divided
the island for the good of the people of Greece, the people of Turkey and
most importantly, for the people of Cyprus".
