    [01] Cyprus government - Turkish threats - Protest

    Nicosia, Apr 24 (CNA) - The Cyprus government has strongly protested to the UN provocative statements and threats made by Turkish Foreign Minister Ismail Cem, last week, as not being conducive to the UN-led process for a solution on the island and not promoting a climate of reconciliation, while at the same time encouraging the Turkish Cypriot leader to remain intransigent.

    In a letter to the UN Secretary-General, sent yesterday, the Republic's permanent representative to the UN Sotos Zackheos says that Ankara and Cem totally disregard the Turkish Cypriots increasing voices of desperation with the situation in the areas of Cyprus occupied by Turkey since 1974 and deny them the opportunity to share the benefits of the Republic's accession to the European Union.
