[04] Cyprus - World Council of Churches - Human Rights
Nicosia, Apr 4 (CNA) -- The Commission of Churches on International Affairs
has called for the respect of human rights of the people of Cyprus and a
speedy implementation of the relevant UN resolutions, John Rumbiak of the
Institute for Human Rights, Study and Advocacy has said on behalf of the
Commission of Churches on International Affairs of the World Council of
Churches.
Speaking before the UN Commission on Human Rights in Geneva, Rumbiak said
the Council "has repeatedly expressed its belief that the continuation of
the status quo in Cyprus that dates back to the invasion and occupation of
37 percent of the island by Turkish armed forces, is unacceptable".
