[01] BRITISH MINISTER - CYPRUS PROBLEM
British Minister for Europe Jim Murphy has said that the UK wants to
see a united, independent, democratic, prosperous and influential
Cyprus, member of the European Union, and added that the UK will
exercise its responsibility as a guarantor power to the maximum effect
in the months and years ahead for reaching a Cyprus solution.
As a guarantor, a leading member of the EU and as one of the five
permanent members of the UN Security Council, we have a remarkable
responsibility to maintain the momentum that develops on the island
itself, he said.
Murphy was speaking at a dinner hosted by the Cypriot National
Federation of the UK to exchange views on the prospects of a Cyprus
solution. The dinner was also attended by British High Commissioner to
Nicosia Peter Millett and Britain`s Special Representative for Cyprus
Joan Ryan.
