[01] PASCOE - CYPRUS - MEETINGSLynn Pascoe, UN Undersecretary General for Political Affairs, is holding separate meetings with the leaders of the Greek Cypriot and the Turkish Cypriot communities, as part of efforts to help make headway towards a political settlement.In the morning Pascoe met the leader of the Turkish Cypriot community Mehmet Ali Talat and at 3 oclock in the afternoon he will meet the President of the Republic Demetris Christofias. Speaking to CNA, Government Spokesman Stefanos Stefanou said that during the meetings Pascoe will review and evaluate, with the two community leaders, the progress that is achieved at the level of the working groups and the technical committees. These committees have been set up after a meeting in April between Christofias and Talat. The objective of the committees is to prepare the ground for substantive negotiations between the two community leaders, leading to a comprehensive settlement, which will reunite Cyprus, divided since the 1974 Turkish invasion. Christofias and Talat are expected to meet again in the second half of June to examine the results of progress achieved so far and determine whether or not to start fully-fledged negotiations. Pascoe departs from Cyprus tomorrow. Cyprus News Agency: News in English Directory - Previous Article - Next Article |
