[02] Government Spokesman - Interview
London, Aug 13 (CNA) -- Cyprus Government Spokesman Michalis Papapetrou
appeared rather pessimistic today about any prospect that the Turkish side
will return to the negotiating table with a view to facilitate a settlement
in Cyprus.
He said he expects the UN to continue presenting the Greek and Turkish
Cypriot sides with non papers for discussion at next month's expected
resumption of talks and to submit a comprehensive framework of a solution
at the beginning of next year, when Papapetrou expects to see both sides
come under pressure and face dilemmas.
"Unfortunately statements by Turkish officials and Turkish Cypriot leader
Rauf Denktash leave no room for any hope that the Turkish side will return
to the talks with a different political will to pave the way towards a
solution," Papapetrou had told London Greek Radio in an interview.

[04] UN Committee - Cyprus - Racial Discrimination
Nicosia, Aug 13 (CNA) -- The UN Committee on the Elimination of Racial
Discrimination considers the occupation by Turkey of 37 per cent of Cyprus'
territory "an obstacle to peace and the enjoyment of human rights" and an
impediment to an anti-discrimination strategy for the island as a whole.
The Committee, in an extraordinary move, issued a decision, having
considered the Republic's latest two periodic reports, and called on the UN
to adopt measures required for the implementation of its relevant
resolutions and decisions.
