Egypt supports Cyprus struggle for a settlement

Nicosia, Feb 20 (CNA) -- Egypt will continue to unequivocally support Cyprus' struggle for a settlement of its political problem, Egyptian Foreign Minister Ahmed Maher assured Honorary President of Cyprus Social Democrats Movement Vasos Lyssarides, who is currently visiting Egypt with a view to convey to the Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak a written message by Cyprus President Glafcos Clerides.

Lyssarides briefed Maher on the latest developments in the Cyprus question and Cyprus bid to join the EU, noting that the Greek Cypriot side proceeds to the UN-led direct talks aiming to reach a settlement of the protracted Cyprus problem, ready to work intensively for a solution, noting that Turkey's position for "two states" on the island destroys every effort for substantive dialogue.
