    [02] Foreign Minister - Washington - Cyprus problem - EU

    Washington, Apr 6 (CNA) -- Foreign Minister Ioannis Kasoulides has said that the message Cyprus' accession to the European Union is imminent and inevitable with or without a settlement on the island, could be the only existing realistic, positive leverage that can be applied in order to bend the intransigent policy followed by Turkish Cypriot leader Rauf Denktash and Turkey in the Cyprus peace effort.

    Speaking yesterday at the Woodrow Wilson Centre in Washington on "Cyprus: Reunification and membership in the EU" Kasoulides also said that once Cyprus joins the EU "its problem wil be under EU influence and its angles would be less acute ... and it would be less of a potential to create new problems of instability in the region or between Greece and Turkey."

    [04] President of Chile - New Cyprus ambassador - Credentials

    Nicosia, Apr 6 (CNA) -- President of Chile Ricardo Lagos has expressed the view that Cyprus' bid to join the European Union could act as a leverage for a settlement on the island, divided since Turkish troops occupied 37 percent of its territory since 1974, and reiterated his country's solidarity to Cyprus and its support within the UN.

    Lagos was speaking at ceremony yesterday during which he received the credentials of the new Cyprus ambassador to his country, Athena Mavronicola, who briefed him on the latest developments in the Cyprus problem and Cyprus' bid to join the European Union.
