    Cyprus President calls for more active EU involvement

    Nicosia, 11 Dec (CNA) Cypriot President Tassos Papadopoulos has called today for a resumption of the dialogue to solve the Cyprus problem, under UN auspices and with a more active involvement on the part of the European Union.

    Addressing today the Pancyprian Meeting of the center right Democratic Party which he chairs, President Papadopoulos repeated that the Greek Cypriot side remains ''committed and dedicated to a bizonal, bicommunal federation''.

    The President said that ''we must pursue a resumption of the intercommunal dialogue under the UN auspices and with a more active involvement on the part of the EU, so as to bring about the necessary improvements and additions'' to the Annan Plan in the light of UN resolutions, international law and the acquis communautaire.

    This way, he said, the Annan Plan will become more ''functional and viable and will tackle the reasonable and legitimate concerns of the two communities''.

    He also said today's situation is ''unacceptable and at the same time dangerous for both communities''.

    The President remarked the most current issue is the ''dilemma over what will happen at the European Council''.

    Stressing that nothing that he would say, would in anyway be a statement or a revelation of the government's decision whether it will consent to granting a date to Turkey to start accession negotiations at next week's European Council, President Papadopoulos explained that this is because the decision will be taken at the last moment.
