[01] BAKOYIANNIS - US - CYPRUS
Greek Foreign Minister Dora Bakoyiannis has briefed US officials on the
latest developments in the Cyprus problem, stressing the need for the
leaders of the two communities in Cyprus to reach a decision on the
solution of the problem, without any foreign interference.
Bakoyiannis is on a visit to Washington, where she is having a series
of meetings with Administration officials. On Tuesday, she met National
Security Advisor of the US President, General James Jones, Senator
Robert Durbin, Senator Benjamin Cardin, members of the US Commission
for Security and Co-operation in Europe (CSCE), known as the Helsinki
Commission, and Chairman John Kerry and members of the US Senate
Committee on Foreign Relations.
According to reliable diplomatic sources, Bakoyiannis referred to the
ongoing direct negotiation process between Cyprus President Demetris
Christofias and Turkish Cypriot leader Mehmet Ali Talat, noting that
the two leaders should be let free, especially from Turkey and the
Turkish military, to decide on the solution.
