    BRUSSELS (ANA - Ch. Poulidou) Speaking to reporters after the morning session of the European Council here on Friday, Greek Prime Minister Costas Simitis particularly welcomed the Council's decision to base a European Centre for the Management of Sea Borders in Greece.

    He also noted that the '25' had decided to continue policies against illegal immigration agreed at the Halkidiki Summit.

    Outlining the results of talks between the 25 EU leaders, Simitis said that two Greek initiatives were recorded in the draft conclusions of the Summit: one concerning 'green diplomacy' and the need to upgrade environmental aspects and another on the Olympic Truce.

    With respect to Turkey's candidacy for EU entry, Simitis said the draft conclusions of the summit called on Ankara to complete harmonisation with the Copenhagen criteria and the reforms required.

    The Greek premier also noted that the Community attached great importance to Turkey's expression of political will for a solution to the Cyprus problem, which was directly linked to its hopes for the start of accession negotiations.
