    Turkey not a loyal US ally, says CATO vice president

    by Apostolis Zoupaniotis

    New York, Apr 25 (CNA) -- Turkey is neither a loyal ally of the United States, nor a factor of stability in the Middle East and the Caucasus, said Dr Ted Galen Carpenter, Vice President of the Washington-based think tank CATO Institute, speaking in front of Greek American audience, in Astoria New York. The event was organised by the National Interests Committee of the Federation of the Hellenic Societies of Greater New York.

    On the question of Cyprus, he said Ankara has attempted to project itself as ''the nice guy'', following the rejection by the Greek Cypriots of a UN-proposed solution plan in a referendum in April last year. He also said Turkey is exploiting the EU and the US and pointed out that Turkey's positions on the question of Cyprus would continue to become harder.

    Cyprus condemns property exploitation in occupied areas

    Nicosia, Apr 25 (CNA) -- The Cyprus government has condemned the continuing exploitation of Greek Cypriot properties in the island's Turkish occupied areas, pointing out that it is doing all it can to put an end to this violation of international law.

    Government Spokesman Kypros Chrysostomides has also stressed that this exploitation would not have been prevented even if a UN-proposed solution plan had been accepted and recalled a European Union call on Ankara to respect judgments of the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) relating to property rights.

    Cyprus satisfied with EU position on Turkey

    by Nicos Bellos

    Brussels, Apr 25 (CNA) - Cypriot Minister of Foreign Affairs George Iacovou has expressed the Republic's satisfaction over the adoption by the EU General Affairs Council, as point A without discussion, of the EU's common position that the Luxembourg presidency will present to Turkey during tomorrow's Association Council.

    Iacovou said the government was pleased with the content of the common position, especially the references to the relations of the Republic of Cyprus with Turkey, and expressed appreciation towards the member states that participated in forming the position and the members that showed goodwill to reach a compromise.

    The common position text was initially agreed on at the Permanent Representatives' meeting in Brussels last week. Today, the General Affairs Council adopted it.
