Papapetrou strongly denies Denktash's allegations
Nicosia, Jun 20 (CNA) -- Government Spokesman Michalis Papapetrou
strongly denied here this evening allegations by Turkish Cypriot leader
Rauf Denktash, who in an interview with Reuters earlier today, claimed
that the Greek Cypriot side had tried during this week's direct talks
to provoke a breakdown and force the Turkish side to withdraw from the
talks.
Papapetrou stressed that the Greek Cypriot side was not pursuing to
make the talks collapse but to make them succeed and was doing its
utmost to that end. He warned every interested party that "the Turkish
side is working towards the degeneration of the talks."
