    [04] Russia - Cyprus problem - Tchizhov interview

    Moscow, May 14 (CNA) -- Russia remains active in the Cyprus question and has both the will and the obligation as a permanent member of the UN Security Council to keep the issue alive in the UN, Moscow's former envoy for Cyprus Vladimir Tchizhov told CNA, expressing support to a federal solution on the island as stipulated for in numerous resolutions.
