[01] House President warns over dangers at Greentree

Speaking at an event in memory of Cyprus` first President, Archbishop Makarios III, Omirou said that there was a danger of ``locking`` the Greek Cypriot side`s concessions, while there would be no respective action for the Turkish Cypriot side, since it has made no concessions.

Omirou said ``we are proceeding to the last lap of Alexander Downer`s plans, the people of Cyprus are oblivious to this fact,`` adding that ``we stand before a painful reality and there can be no illusions that the Turkish beast will be updated with `flexibility` and references to a Cypriot solution.``

He noted that the Cyprus problem is probably at its worst ever, since the commencement of talks for a settlement, adding that the negotiations are at a deadlock due to Turkish intransigence. Cyprus has been divided since 1974, when Turkey invaded and occupied its northern third.
