[01] PRESIDENT - CYPRUS PROBLEM - INTERNATIONAL MEETINGPresident of the Republic of Cyprus Demetris Christofias noted on Saturday that the government`s position on an international meeting for the Cyprus problem, was clear, namely that it would deal with the international aspects of the problem and would be attended by the five permanent members of the UN Security Council, the UN Secretary General, the EU, the two communities in Cyprus, and the Republic of Cyprus.Speaking at Larnaca Airport before departing for New York, President Christofias said that in all his meetings there he would elaborate on his proposals, as a follow up to the letters he has already sent. ``The international meeting will deal with the international aspects of the Cyprus problem, full stop. This of course for us means the participation of the Republic of Cyprus, the five permanent members of the UN, the Secretary General, the EU and the two communities,`` he added. President Christofias pointed out that it was imperative that the Republic of Cyprus was present, because ``it has signed the treaties of guarantee.`` Cyprus, which joined the EU in 2004, has been divided since 1974, when Turkey invaded and occupied its northern third.
