[01] EU Presidency: Cyprus' accesion negotiations will contribute to the search for a political settlement

The European Union considers that Cyprus' accession to the EU will prove beneficial to both communities and will contribute to the consolidation of peace on the island.

In a written reply to a question submitted by Greek EuroMP Alecos Alavanos to the EU Austrian Presidency, the Austrian Deputy Foreign Minister ‹s Ferrero Waldner stressed that the EU attaches great importance to the participation of Turkish Cypriots in the negotiating team that conducts Cyprus' accession negotiations.

Ms Waldner added that the EU believes that accession negotiations will contribute to the search for a political settlement in Cyprus within the framework of UN sponsored talks.

Moreover replying to a question by Greek EuroParliamentarian Ioannis Theonas, the Austrian Presidency reiterated EU's commitment to a peaceful political settlement and added that it staunchly supports UN Secretary General's efforts for the establishment of a bizonal bicommunal federation in Cyprus.
