    The President of the Republic, Mr Tassos Papadopoulos, has received a letter from US President Mr George W. Bush, to which he will reply, Government Spokesman Mr Kypros Chrysostomides announced after a meeting of the National Council on Monday. Mr Chrysostomides said that the National Council - the President's top advisory body on the Cyprus problem - had made an in-depth assessment of the current situation as well as future prospects regarding the effort to find a settlement of the Cyprus issue. "The National Council unanimously reiterated the position that the Greek Cypriot side is ready to resume negotiations on the basis of the Annan plan in order to find a functional and viable solution before 1 May 2004, so that a reunited Cyprus would join the European Union", the Government Spokesman noted.

    Mr Chrysostomides added that President Papadopoulos had briefed Council members on the latest developments concerning the Cyprus issue, the results of the Intergovernmental Conference dealing with a Constitution for the EU and the UN Secretary-General's letter on the issue of missing persons.
