    [03] UN top Cyprus envoy - EU Commissioner

    Nicosia, Mar 29 (CNA) -- The need for the solution of the Cyprus question, that would emerge from UN peace talks, to be in line with European Union legislation was the focus of a meeting earlier this week between UN Secretary General's Special Adviser on Cyprus Alvaro de Soto and EU Commissioner for enlargement Gunter Verheugen.

    De Soto and Verheugen's spokesman Jean Christophe Filori have told CNA that the meeting is part of regular consulations between the UN and the EU to exchange views and compare notes with a view to help the two processes (peace talks and accession) to move in the same direction without any overlapping.

    [04] Cyprus - EU accession talks - Vassiliou

    Brussels, Mar 29 (CNA) - The Cyprus Republic today provisionally closed one of the most difficult chapters in the accession talks with the European Union, the chapter on the movement of capital, during the 11th Meeting of the Inter- Governmental Conference at deputy level, held in Brussels, where it was represented by its chief negotiator George Vassiliou.

    Cyprus has now completed 18 out of 29 chapters that are to be examined, since opening accession talks in 1998, and is still leading the other candidate states.

    [06] Cyprus - European People's Party - ED Group - Session

    Nicosia, Mar 29 (CNA) – Cyprus' European Union accession course that got underway in 1998 and efforts to find a solution to the Cyprus problem are the main issues discussed at the two-day session of the European People's Party - European Democrats (EPP-ED) Group Bureau, which got underway here today.

    Speaking at the opening, EPP-ED Chairman Hans-Gert Pottering expressed solidarity with efforts for an early settlement on the island and the Republic's accession to the EU, recalling the party's support to the Helsinki summit decisions providing that a solution in Cyprus is not a precondition for accession.
