    Resumption of negotiations way to solution, says President

    by Apostolis Zoupaniotis

    United Nations, Aug 6 (CNA) -- The best way to make headway in the Cyprus issue is to resume negotiations with a view at reaching a viable and functional solution as soon as possible, Cyprus President Tassos Papadopoulos has stressed, reiterating his readiness to engage immediately in substantive talks on the basis of a UN peace plan.

    In a letter to UN Secretary General Kofi Annan, President Papadopoulos points out that there is no lack of confidence between Greek Cypriots and Turkish Cypriots but what is lacking is a comprehensive settlement.

    US Ambassador: very feasible to reach a settlement by May 2004

    by Maria Myles

    Nicosia, Aug 6 (CNA) -- US Ambassador to Cyprus Michael Klosson believes that it is ''very feasible'' to clinch a deal on a comprehensive settlement by May next year, before Cyprus joins the European Union, saying that many factors are conducive towards this direction.

    In an interview with CNA, on completion of nearly a year since he presented his credentials, Klosson said the US wants to see a change of perspective on the part of Turkish Cypriot leader Rauf Denktash and indicated that a new negotiator for the Turkish Cypriot community might be a breath of fresh air to the talks.

    The Ambassador said the US is and will remain an active player in the peace effort and stressed that there can be no political settlement without US participation in this process.
