[01] FM - EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT - T/CsCypriot Minister of Foreign Affairs George Lillikas expressed on Monday the conviction that ``the European Parliament will move within the framework of legality and the principles its function is based on,`` regarding a report prepared by the Parliament`s Contact Group with the Turkish Cypriots, adding that the report has not yet been publicised and ``we at least do not have it.``Commenting on the report and the effort of the Cypriot side to avert the promotion of a direct dialogue between the European Parliament and the puppet regime in the Turkish occupied areas of Cyprus, Lillikas said ``for the time being it is a draft.`` ``I think it is untimely to begin to judge or criticise or welcome a report which no one has yet and does not know exactly what it suggests,`` he said, adding that the government is in contact with the Group and the European Parliament presidency. Lillikas was speaking at Larnaca Airport before departing for Bulgaria, where he will have a series of meetings aimed at discussing and exchanging views on EU issues and bilateral relations. He said both countries belong to the group of Mediterranean nations ``with many common interests or common problems,`` adding that there was room for cooperation in a series of issues concerning the EU.
