Syrian Transport Minister Yarob S. Badr assured that his country
recognises only Cyprus` legal ports and airports.
Án official press release issued here said Badr`s assurances were given
to Cypriot Minister of Communication and Works Haris Thrasou during a
meeting they had in Syria, in the framework of Thrasou`s three-day
recent official visit to the country.
Thrasou raised the issue of ships of Syrian interests approaching
Cyprus ports closed since the Turkish invasion of the island in 1974,
as well as issues emerging from the operation of the illegal airport in
Tymbou in the Turkish-occupied part of Cyprus.
