US State Department Deputy Spokesman Tom Casey has that the US are
supportive of ongoing efforts for a Cyprus settlement in a way that is
acceptable to both communities on the island.
Responding to a question during Tuesdays briefing, if the US support a
plan which foresees withdrawal of Turkish troops from Varosha and
handing over the administration of the town to the UN and the EU`s
direct trade regulation for Turkish Cypriots to enter into force for
two years, Casey said he was not sure what those reports were referring
to.
However, he stressed that the US position on Cyprus is known. We are
supportive of efforts that are ongoing, including through UN
Undersecretary General Ibrahim Gambari and others, to arrange for a
settlement of the Cyprus issue in a way that is acceptable to both
communities on the island, he stressed.
