    EU Commissioner urges Turkey to sign protocol, pledges more active role on Cyprus

    Nicosia, Mar 8 (CNA) -- European Union Commissioner responsible for enlargement Olli Rehn has called on Turkey to sign, in good time, the protocol to its customs union agreement with the EU extending it to all ten new members, including Cyprus, and pointed out that this is attached to the start of accession negotiations, set for 3 October this year.

    Addressing Turkish business leaders in Istanbul, he said the Commission continues to support the resumption of talks for a comprehensive settlement in Cyprus, under the UN auspices, adding that it is ready to play an active role to prepare the ground for this aim.

    ''I trust that Turkey will fulfill its commitment by signing in good time the protocol adapting the Ankara Agreement to the accession of the new member states. This is important since this was attached by the European Council to the start of accession negotiations,'' he stressed.

    On Cyprus, he said that the opening of the new chapter in EU-Turkey relations offers fresh opportunities to improve relations with the Republic of Cyprus.
