[01] Greek FM, Cypriot counterpart have working meeting to discuss progress in Cyprus talksForeign Minister Nikos Kotzias and Cyprus Foreign Minister Ioannis Kasoulides had a working meeting in Athens on Friday, discussing the progress in the negotiations on the Cyprus issue, with emphasis on the issue of security, as well as the repercussions of the failed coup in Turkey and Greek-Cypriot cooperation in the framework of trilateral agreements.In statements after the meeting, Kotzias once again expressed Greece's support for the talks to find a just solution to the Cyprus issue and noted that "serious steps have been made." He said that this solution must be productive and democratically correct, which meant that "the regime of guarantees must be abolished and the Turkish occupation troops must withdraw." Kasoulides said the meeting had been productive and noted the need for a system that will make all Cypriots feel equally safe, whether they are Greek Cypriots or Turkish Cypriots. Such a system had no room for either guarantee conditions nor the presence of Turkish troops, he added.
