    Cyprus to evaluate at the right moment decision on Turkey, says President

    Nicosia, Nov 7 (CNA) Cyprus President Tassos Papadopoulos said the government will evaluate at the right moment everything that has been said about setting a date for Turkey to start accession negotiations with the European Union.

    He told participants during the sixth Pancyprian Meeting of the Ecologists Environmentalists Movement that during the course of negotiations, Turkey will be obliged to recognise the Republic of Cyprus, thus withdrawing its occupation troops from the island.

    President Papadopoulos was invited to comment on statements made during todays meeting that if Turkey is granted a date to start accession negotiations with the EU, this would constitute recognition of the Republic of Cyprus by Turkey and Turkey would withdraw its occupation forces from the island.

    He replied, this is a view supported by a number of heads of states and governments, noting he has discussed the issue with them.
