  • [01] BRITAIN - CYPRUS PROBLEM

    British Prime Minister Gordon Brown referred on Tuesday to a window of opportunity for a comprehensive settlement of the Cyprus problem, noting that the aim of London was a comprehensive settlement that would provide a better future for Cyprus and a better outcome in Europe as a whole.

    Replying to questions on the fundamental principles of British policy on the Cyprus problem, as he explained them to Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan during a meeting in London, Brown said, ``I believe there is potentially a window of opportunity and that is what I was discussing with the Prime Minister about.``

    Speaking at a press conference with Erdogan, Brown said ``we want a comprehensive solution to the problems that existed for so many years and we want the stalled UN talks moved forward.``

    He added that ``our aim is a comprehensive settlement to these difficulties which will make possible a better life for Cyprus and of course will also make possible a better outcome in Europe as a whole.``

    [02] INTER-RELIGIOUS CONFERENCE

    The 21st Inter-Religious Conference, which took place in Naples, Italy, concluded its works on Tuesday by appointing the Church of Cyprus as the next host of the Meeting, in November 2008.

    Archbishop of the Church of Cyprus Chrysostomos II, who is in Naples for this year`s Conference, made every effort to secure the 22nd Inter-Religious Conference for Cyprus.

    So far, four Citizens Service Centres are operating in Cyprus, namely in Nicosia, Limassol, Polis Chrysochous and Pelendri.
