    [02] US State Department report - Cyprus

    Washington, Feb 27 (CNA) -- A US State Department report on human rights in Cyprus for the year 2000 refers to restrictions on freedom of movement in the Turkish-occupied part of Cyprus and says the treatment of Greek Cypriots and Maronites living in the occupied areas does not meet the terms of a 1975 agreement to respect the human rights of these people.

    The report notes that the government of the Republic of Cyprus generally respected human rights and refers to a Turkish Cypriot administration in the northern part of the island, noting that it is not recognised by either the US or any other country except Turkey.
