    [04] Russia - Cyprus question - Statement

    Nicosia, Mar 7 (CNA) - Russia believes that dialogue is the only effective way out of the long-standing deadlock in the efforts to settle the protracted Cyprus question, and for this purpose is in touch with interested parties to secure their constructive input towards this goal.

    Moscow, reiterating its continuous support for the UN peace effort on Cyprus, said it wants to see an end to the interruption of the peace talks, which is a result of the position of the Turkish Cypriot side. CNA/MM/RG/2001

    [05] Women's Day - Missing

    Nicosia, Mar 7 (CNA) - The plight of the 116 Cypriot women, still listed as missing since the 1974 Turkish invasion of Cyprus, is highlighted in a petition the Committee of Relatives of Undeclared Prisoners and Missing Persons has sent to the five permanent members of the UN Security Council and the member states of the European Union.

    Distributed to coincide with tomorrow's international women's day, the petition reminds "those in power that Turkey still refuses to give the necessary answers and reveal information about the fate of so many missing persons" and draws attention to the anguish of the mothers, wives and daughters which continues unabated.
