[01] There's no reason for concern, says Government Spokesman

During the briefing to the press, on 8 October 2001, the Government Spokesman, Mr Michalis Papapetrou made the following statement: "After the beginning of the military operation against Afganistan, all necessary measures have been taken in Cyprus following the government's decision. These measures have been taken without exaggeration and they have been applied in such a way as to avoid unnecessary anxiety for there is no reason justifying any such sentiments. The government is addressing everybody and suggests that people stay calm, maintain self-control and continue with their regular occupation.

With regard to information concerning the presence of USA military aircrafts at Larnaca airport, I deny any such information once and for all. The afore-mentioned aircrafts belong to the Civil Aviation and they carry merchandised goods, and their landing is of a common practise when similar requests are being put forward. It needs to be clarified, though, that the government has no intention of verifying or denying any similar information because it is not appropriate to do so".
