    [01] US President - Greek American leaders - Cyprus question

    by Demetris Apokis Washington, May 19 (CNA) - US President Bill Clinton has expressed the view that all the parties involved in the Cyprus issue know what kind of format the solution to the problem will have and the only issue that remains is how soon it will come through, according to Greek American leaders who met him at the Oval Office yesterday.

    According to the Greek American leaders, holding their annual conference here, President Clinton supported the establishment of a bizonal federation in Cyprus, with two autonomous entities and freedom of movement.

    [04] Cyprus - Turkish Foreign Ministry - Manoeuvres

    Nicosia, May 19 (CNA) -- Cyprus Government Spokesman Michalis Papapetrou described as totally "unjustified" the Turkish Foreign Ministry's reaction over the military manoeuvres "Toxotis - Vergina", stressing that the security and stability in the region is jeopardised by the presence of the Turkish occupation army in Cyprus.

    Regarding Turkey's claims that the joint Cyprus-Greece manoeuvres do not favour conditions for the third round of the UN-sponsored talks scheduled to start on July 5 in Geneva, Papapetrou said he hoped "this was not an effort to create a pretext in view of the third round of talks, and to prepare the ground that the Turkish side will come to the talks with the same attitude and approach" as in the previous rounds.
