[01] WATER SHORTAGE G/C & T/C
Greek Cypriots and Turkish Cypriots will have to jointly face the
problem of water shortage on the island when the Cyprus problem is
solved, Cypriot President Demetris Christofias has said.
Invited to comment on a press report according to which during the
ongoing negotiations for a Cyprus solution the issue of transporting
water from Turkey was addressed, President Christofias said that the
issue was not raised officially at the negotiations by Turkish Cypriot
leader Mehmet Ali Talat.
In statements Monday before departing for Strasbourg, where he will
address the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe, President
Christofias noted that the construction of a pipeline from Turkey to
Cyprus is not an easy project to realise.
