    [01] President - Cyprus question - US

    Nicosia, Feb 19 (CNA) -- President Glafcos Clerides believes the Cyprus question is among the priorities of the US administration but is not as high up in their priority list as the situation in the Gulf or that in the Middle East.

    The President also said his government has various considerations to help the UN peace effort move forward, which are not for public consumption and expressed the view that the US no longer intend to maintain presidential emissaries for various problems.
