[03] Russian diplomat - Interview
Moscow, Sep 2 (CNA) -- Moscow appears cautious with the prospects of Cyprus
peace talks resuming before the Organisation for Security and Cooperation
in Europe (OSCE) summit to be held in November and believes that if a new
round of negotiations is convened their success should be certain.
In an interview with a CNA delegation visiting Moscow, Russian Foreign
Ministry envoy for Cyprus Vladimir Tchizhov said "the UN Secretary-General
is the only person who can call for negotiations", adding that the UN chief
"is well aware of the dangers of any possible failure in such an effort."
