    [03] House of Commons - Vaz - Cyprus

    London, Dec 13 (CNA) - "The United Kingdom remains strongly supportive of the UN process and is working hard to ensure that all involved continue to cooperate fully with the UN Secretary-General's efforts to achieve a comprehensive settlement in Cyprus", British Minister of State of the Foreign and Commonwealth Office Keith Vaz has said.

    Speaking at the House of Commons and replying to a question put forward by Labour MP Andrew Love, Vaz said the UK wants "all groups to participate" in the peace effort and expressed full confidence in Britain's special representative for Cyprus, Sir David Hannay. CNA/KT/RM/RG/2000

    [04] Government Spokesman - Greek Cypriot - Abduction

    Nicosia, Dec 13 (CNA) - The government of Cyprus considers the abduction of 40- year-old Greek Cypriot Panicos Tziakourmas by the Turkish occupation forces today as an act of vengeance to the Republic's arrest of Turkish Cypriot Omer Tekoglou on drug trafficking charges, Government Spokesman Michalis Papapetrou said today.

    Papapetrou added he believed there was no connection between the incident and the political developments on the Cyprus issue, but considered it as a part of a pattern followed by the illegal regime for 26 years. CNA/RM/RG/2000

    [05] Government Spokesman - Sunken vessel

    Nicosia, Dec 13 (CNA) - The Cabinet was briefed today on the incident concerning the sinking of the Royal Prince vessel, returning to Cyprus from Lebanon, where it had dropped off 47 illegal immigrants deported from the island, Government Spokesman Michalis Papapetrou said today.

    Papapetrou, speaking after a Council of Ministers meeting, said the Cabinet decided that in the future, illegal immigrants would be transferred by air as well as by sea, when necessary.

    [06] Government Spokesman - Cyprus problem - Talks

    Nicosia, Dec 13 (CNA) - Government Spokesman Michalis Papapetrou said today the Turkish Cypriot side must have got the message that through threats it cannot but increase its international isolation.

    Commenting on statements by Turkish Cypriot leader Rauf Denktash, that he would be going to Geneva after all in late January, but not in the context of UN-led proximity talks on the Cyprus problem, Papapetrou said "as we approach the sixth round, I have no doubt that Denktash will try to reverse all which he has said to justify his threats and his exposure to the public opinion, that he abandoned the talks and there is no meaning in returning to them".
