    • [01] GREECE - GUARANTEE SYSTEM

    Greek Minister of Foreign Affairs Dora Bakoyiannis said on Thursday that Greece agrees that the system of guarantees in Cyprus is outdated and anachronistic, with the EU being the best guarantee for the security of Greek Cypriots and Turkish Cypriots.

    According to a press release issued by the Embassy of the Republic of Cyprus in Athens, Bakoyiannis, speaking after a meeting with Cypriot Minister of Foreign Affairs Marcos Kyprianou, said that decisions on Greeces stance would depend on the response of Turkey towards the demands of the EU.

    Kyprianou said that a solution to the Cyprus problem should be to the benefit of all Cypriots, and that Turkey must become actively involved in efforts for a solution.

    [02] CYPRUS - UNEMPLOYMENT

    The number of registered unemployed in Cyprus reached 18.462 persons in August 2009, recording an increase of 4.1% compared to the previous month, a press release issued by Cyprus Statistical Service says.

    According to the press release, the unemployed persons, registered at the District Labour Offices on the last day of August 2009, reached 17.788 persons.

    The trend of the registered unemployed that seemed to have stabilized during the previous three months is showing an upward movement in August.
