    Blair: Cyprus will join EU in any event

    by Kyriakos Tsioupras

    London, Nov 29 (CNA) -- British Prime Minister Toni Blair has said that Cyprus will in any event join the EU and noted that it was partly as a result of the representations of the British government that it was made absolutely clear that Cyprus should be able to join the EU even if there is not a final settlement of the Cyprus problem.

    Answering a question by British Labour MP Andrew Dismore, Blair said his country wants a settlement and expressed hope that the UN proposals for a comprehensive settlement, put forward November 11 by UN Secretary General Kofi Annan, ''can be at least the basis for conducting these negotiations reasonably quickly.''
