[01] IPU Council adopts Committee report on Cyprus
According to illegal Bayrak Radio (15:30 hours, 20.4.96),
the Interparliamentary Union (IPU) Conference held in Istanbul has
ended. The 95th IPU Council adopted a report on the issue of
Cyprus.
The IPU Council, which convened within the framework of
the IPU Conference, adopted the report submitted by the IPU
follow-up committee on Cyprus. The report noted that the
statement issued by Rauf Denktash to the effect that he is ready
to resume negotiations is encouraging and said that it expected
Cyprus President Glafcos Clerides to display the same approach.
Expressing support for the goodwill mission of the UN
Secretary General, the report also said that the set of ideas
continued to constitute the basis for the resolution of the Cyprus
issue. The report noted that the fact that there were no further
developments on the confidence-building-measures increased the
tension on the island. (Illegal Bayrak, 10:30 hours, 20.4.96).
