    [05] Water shortage - Measures - Cabinet Nicosia, Apr 12 (CNA) -- The government announced here today additional measures to save water, including redistribution of water resources in cities and possible import of water from Greece, in order to try and meet the country's needs in the summer months.

    [06] Government Spokesman - Verheugen

    Nicosia, Apr 12 (CNA) -- The European Union has made it clear that the existing or future guarantees for Cyprus do not impede the Republic's chances of joining its ranks.

    The Union also said the presence of foreign troops in Cyprus does not hinder the country's bid for membership either.

    The government on its part expressed satisfaction with these clarifications from Brussels, sought after EU Commissioner responsible for enlargement Gunter Verheugen told a press conference Tuesday that the presence of foreign troops in a candidate country does not mean that country cannot join the EU.
