Cyprus FM: Resumption of talks possible after May 2005
Larnaca, Jan 9 (CNA) --- Cyprus Foreign Minister George Iacovou
believes that it is possible for negotiations for a solution to the
Cyprus problem to resume after May 2005.
Iacovou noted that two so - called elections will take place in Cyprus'
Turkish occupied areas, one in February and one in May and added that
''as usual, until these elections are finished, nothing will happen''.
Speaking on his arrival yesterday from Brussels, where he attended the
extraordinary meeting of the General Affairs and External Relations
Council to address the consequences of the tsunami in Asia, Iacovou
said that the Greek Cypriot side has already made clear which
preconditions are necessary for the resumption of talks.
''We have a clear position on that, which was made known to all
interested, and that is that we can participate to negotiations for
solving the Cyprus problem'', he said.
