[01] Omirou: Need to free G/c side from process ``full of traps``
President of the House of Representatives Yiannakis Omirou has said
that the new meeting to take place late January in New York on the
Cyprus problem constitutes most probably the last chance for the Greek
Cypriot side to free itself from a process which, as he said, is full
of traps.
Addressing Monday evening an event organized by the Turkish occupied
community of Massari, Omirou said that the Greek Cypriot side should
protest to the UN the Turkish sides intransigent stance at the Cyprus
talks and withdraw the concessions it made at the negotiating table,
since the Turkish side has not responded accordingly.
Otherwise, he noted, an international conference on the Cyprus issue
could be convened, with an arbitration, which will not be a balanced
one, or with an announcement that the talks have reached a deadlock and
the responsibility for that will be attributed to both sides equally.
UN Secretary General Ban Ki moon has extended a new an invitation to
the leaders of the two communities in Cyprus, President of Cyprus
Demetris Christofias and Turkish Cypriot leader Dervis Eroglu, to meet
with him in New York 23-24 January in the framework of the UN backed
direct talks for the Cyprus problem.
