[01] Turkish Cypriot leader - Cyprus' EU aspiration
By Maria Myles Geneva, Nov 7 (CNA) -- Turkish Cypriot leader Rauf Denktash
today claimed that Cyprus President Glafcos Clerides' priority is not a
settlement to the Cyprus question but the Republic's accession to the
European Union (EU).
Speaking to reporters before his meeting at the UN office here with the
Secretary-General's special adviser for Cyprus Alvaro de Soto, who is
conducting the peace talks, Denktash repeated his unacceptable view that
the Republic should join the EU after a settlement is reached and cannot
become a member while divided.

[04] Cyprus peace talks - New non-paper - President's meetings
Geneva, Nov 7 (CNA) -- The Greek Cypriot side received here today a non-
paper on the judiciary the UN has prepared in the context of the ongoing UN
proximity talks on the Cyprus question, aiming at finding a comprehensive
settlement on the island.
The non-paper, prepared by a team led by UN Secretary General's Special
Adviser on Cyprus Alvaro de Soto to sound out the Greek Cypriot side on the
ideas incorporated in the document, has been described by CNA sources as
rather satisfactory, even though it contains elements on which comments
will be made and clarifications will be sought.
