    by Athena Arsalidou

    Jerusalem, May 16 (CNA) -- Israeli Foreign Minister Silvan Shalom has reassured the government of Cyprus that his country does not encourage investment in Greek Cypriot properties in the Turkish occupied area of the island, adding that he would issue a travel advisory on the matter on the Ministry's official site.

    Cyprus Foreign Minster George Iacovou, in Israel for an official visit, told CNA after a working lunch here with Shalom, that his Israeli counterpart underlined that his country does not encourage investment in occupied Cyprus but as a democratic country it cannot prohibit its citizens from doing so.

    Speaking to the press yesterday prior to his departure for Warsaw, Poland, to attend the Third Summit of the Council of Europe, Papadopoulos said ''we have undertaken the commitment to keep these consultations confidential, to the extent possible.''
