[01] BAN KI MOON - CYPRUS - PRESIDENT PAPADOPOULOS
The Agreement of 8 July 2006 has yet to be implemented, stressed UN
Secretary General Ban Ki-moon in his annual report on the work of the
UN before the General Assembly which opened Tuesday.
In the third chapter of the report on peace and security, Ban wrote
that in Cyprus, despite numerous meetings held by the Special
Representative of the Secretary-General with envoys of the Greek
Cypriot leader and the Turkish Cypriot leader, the Agreement of 8 July
2006 has yet to be implemented.
Ban will meet Cypriot President Tassos Papadopoulos at the UN
headquarters on Sunday at 2140 Cyprus time. A close associate of the
Secretary General told CNA that Ban has decided to wait and take action
only if he has sufficient evidence that indicates progress can be
achieved.
The same source said that despite public recommendations by US
Undersecretary at the State Department Nicholas Burns for the Secretary
General to appoint a personal envoy for Cyprus, these duties are still
being exercised by UN Secretary General`s Special Representative in
Cyprus Michael Moller.
