  • [01] Cyprus' Kyprianou in Belgrade to discuss release of 3 US soldiers

    Athens, 08/04/1999 (ANA)

    Cypriot House Speaker Spyros Kyprianou arrived in Athens yesterday evening before his scheduled flight to Belgrade this morning for discussions focusing on the release of three US soldiers captured by Yugoslavia last week.

    Mr. Kyprianou, the acting Cyprus president, requested from Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic a meeting on the possibility of gaining the three army soldiers' freedom, seen as a possible springboard for an end to NATO bombings and the resumption of dialogue for a solution to the Kosovo crisis.

    "I have undertaken an initiative of a purely humanitarian content with the release of the three Americans...since their detention serves absolutely no purpose. I believe that their release will contrubute to detente, to the easing of tension, it will give satisfaction to the American people and will be a token of additional goodwill on the part of Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic," he told reporters upon arrival in Athens.

    "The aim of all of us, in view of the major dangers existing in the region, must be de-escalation and peace. Of course, there are certain principles which we must base ourselves on and which we cannot violate. The same principles on which we in Cyprus base our struggle for freedom, restoration of human rights and continuous territorial integrity," he said, noting that although Athens was not involved or kne w of the initiative, it now fully supports the effort.

    "I will not get involved - and this is my intention for the time being - in any political initiative. The understanding I have reached with Yugoslavia's leadership and with Mr. Milosevic personally is that we shall discuss the specific humanitarian issue and the only thing I can say on the basis of messages I have received is that developments might be very positive," he said.

    Replying to questions on whether he is hopeful of the three US army enlisted men's release, Mr. Kyprianou said "my hopes are considerable, without this meaning, of course, that I have reached an understanding with NATOII don't know what NATO is thinking ...it accepts the initiative but has its doubts as to its effectiveness."

    Mr. Kyprianou was due to meet Alternate Foreign Minister Yiannos Kranidiotis last night since his departure for Belgrade was postponed for this morning.

    Speaking prior to his departure from Larnaca airport, Mr. Kyprianou said he hoped his mission would be successful, because it would "help improve the situation regarding Kosovo..."

    Responding to earlier questions, Mr. Kyprianou said he had requested a 24- hour ceasefire from NATO, enough for his arrival, stay and departure from Belgrade.

    Cypriot Foreign Minister Ioannis Kasoulides, who was present at Larnaca airport, said Nicosia "fully supports the mission" and that it would be in continuous contact with Mr. Kyprianou in Belgrade.

    Mr. Kasoulides said he himself had contacted the US and Yugoslav embassies in Nicosia, adding that the former welcomed the initiative, and that the latter had not placed any preconditions for the trio's release.

    Greek gov't : In Athens, Greek government spokesman Dimitris Reppas corroborated that Mr. Milosevic had invited Mr. Kyprianou to Belgrade to discuss the issue of the captive US soldiers.

    Sources said the three soldiers - Andrew Ramirez, 24, Steven Gonzales, 24, and Christopher Stone, 25 - would be transported to the Cypriot capital, Nicosia.

    Political observers described the proposed release of the three men as a "gesture of good will" by Belgrade in view of Orthodox Christian Easter this Sunday.

    Mr. Reppas also said Athens was in contact with all the sides involved to facilitate the transport of three soldiers from the Yugoslav capital, adding that Athens would provide a plane or other means.

    The Greek spokesman reiterated that the government believed it was now more necessary than ever for a political solution to be found to the Kosovo crisis through dialogue.

    He said Yugoslavia had a duty to prove reliable on its proposal for a unilateral ceasefire, adding that sufficient guarantees had not been forthcoming so far to render the Yugoslav government's proposal credible.

    Asked to elaborate, Mr. Reppas said guarantees needed to be provided for the unhindered return of the refugees to their homes, withdrawal of the Yugoslav army from Kosovo, and the deployment of an international peace- keeping force in the region.

    In tandem with Yugoslavia's provision of guarantees, there must also be a political approach on the part of the west so as to achieve dialogue on the issue, he added.

    Finally, the government spokesman said the Kosovo issue would be a priority topic of discussion at the April 14 extraordinary European Union summit in Brussels, while the EU internal and foreign ministers' councils in their meetings today in Luxembourg would set out the EU's positions on the refugee issue, and more particularly the number of refugees to be taken in by each member-state.

    [02] Economy shows staying power in Kosovo crisis

    Athens, 08/04/1999 (ANA)

    The economy is unruffled despite the Yugoslavia crisis, showing stamina equal to any other strong economy, National Economy and Finance Minister Yiannos Papantoniou said yesterday.

    Mr. Papantoniou was speaking to reporters after a meeting chaired by Prime Minister Costas Simitis.

    Also taking part were Bank of Greece governor Lucas Papademos and Tassos Giannitsis, head of the premier's economic bureau.

    Mr. Papantoniou said that the drachma, bonds and interest rates had held up very well and that economic growth did not seem to be affected by the crisis.

    He said that the economy had kept on track for entry into the euro zone despite financial crises in Asia and Russia last year, and the economy would remain unscathed if the situation in Kosovo improved.

    The minister noted that inflation was continuing its downward trend, the public sector deficit was falling, and tax revenue in the first quarter of 1999 had shown a 100-billion-drachma surplus over the government's target.

    Mr. Papantoniou said that the government's main priority was to draft a development programme for 2000-2006.

    [11] BBC phone interview with Tsohatzopoulos

    LONDON, 08/04/1999 (ANA - L. Tsirigotakis)

    National Defence Minister Akis Tsohatzopoulos commented on Kosovo crisis during the BBC's morning programme "Breakfast News" yesterday morning.

    During a telephone interview and in reply to a question on whether he considers the ceasefire proposal by Yugoslav leader Slobodan Milosevic as correct, he answered: "I think it was a correct step in the right direction at this moment, but it must be supplemented with many other preconditions which are necessary for a peaceful solution to the crisis to be secured."

    In earlier statements, Mr Tsohatzopoulos stated that "naturally, there are proposals by everyone, how a settlement to the problem could be promoted from this first step, however, by also meeting some other terms requiring guarantees, such as the safe re turn of the refugees in the presence of international forces that will guarantee a productive dialogue toward the settlement of the problem as well as a corresponding end to the existing state of conflict...".

    [12] First Kosovo refugees Greece to host expected over the weekend

    SKOPJE, 08/04/1999 (ANA - S. Tzimas)

    Some 5,000 Kosovar re fugees that Greece has decided to host will begin arriving from the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia (FYROM) on Saturday, Foreign Minister George Papandreou announced here yesterday.

    Mr. Papandreou stayed in Skopje for a few hours and left for Tirana in the evening with his FYROM counterpart Alexander Dimitrov.

    Visiting a large refugee camp near Skopje, Mr. Papandreou termed the refugee problem "a disgrace for the end of the century."

    Commenting on concern over the future of FYROM, he said "Greece will help in having the country's territorial integrity preserved and will strive to see that borders will not change in the region."

    Referring to his visit to Albania, he said he and Mr. Dimitrov were due to meet last night with Albanian Prime Minister Panteli Majko, "to restore good cooperation between Skopje and Tirana on the refugee issue."

    Mr. Papandreou met with FYROM President Kiro Gligorov, Prime Minister Ljupco Georgievski and Democratic Alternative party President Vassili Topurkovski.

    Meanwhile, Mr. Gligorov, on his part, noted that the Kosovo crisis has brought Greece and FYROM closer.

    "This crisis has certainly assisted in furthering our relations, it helped overcome problems", while he called Greece a "strong country that plays a major role in the region".

    The FYROM leader also made a general reference to the pending issue of FYROM's name, saying this was an issue that would be resolved by improving the already good relations between Athens and Skopje.

    [13] US envoy explains reasons behind NATO's rejection of unilateral ceasefore

    Athens, 08/04/1999 (ANA)

    US ambassador Nicholas Burns said yesterday that NATO was united in its objectives of securing a withdrawal of Yugoslav forces from the troubled Yugoslav provice of Kosovo and a safe return of refugees.

    Mr. Burns was speaking to reporters after a meeting with Development Minister Evangelos Venizelos at the National Tourist Organisation (EOT), when asked to comment on Prime Minister Costas Simitis' statement late Tuesday night that Yugoslavia's unilater al ceasefire was the "first step" towards a political settlement of the Kosovo crisis.

    The US envoy referred reporters to last night's "very clear" announcement by NATO and accused the Serbs of carrying out "barbarous ethnic cleansing" which went beyond "all concepts of humanity and moral values."

    "They should be ashamed of what they're doing," he added.

    Mr. Burns expressed a view that Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic's ceasefire offer was "not serious" because it made no mention of a withdrawal of Serb forces from Kosovo, nor the presence of an international peace-keeping force in the area, or the return of refugees to Kosovo.

    "Mr. Milosevic gave no answer on these points," Mr. Burns said, adding that this was the reason why NATO rejected the ceasefire offer.

    He added that Athens and Washington were cooperating "very effectively" on Kosovo, jointly making efforts to end the crisis.

    "Greece is the only NATO country in the region which has historical and religious ties with Serbia. We understand public opinion in Greece with regard to the crisis in Kosovo," he said.

    Mr. Burns said he had reiterated to Mr. Venizelos, as he had done with Foreign Minister George Papandreou and Defence Minister Akis Tsohatzopoulos, that "the US government does not believe Greece will be dragged into this conflict, nor do we believe ther e will be any kind of conflict between Greece and Turkey because of Kosovo". The US envoy said certain statements by US officials had been "misinterpreted" by the Greek press.

    "We do not believe that there should be a change of borders in the Balkans, " Mr. Burns stated categorically, adding that US Deputy Secretary of State Strobe Talbott, who visited Greece earlier this week, had assured the Greek government that Washington did not support such a prospect.

    On his part, Mr. Venizelos said "we must note and appreciate in particular" the US position in favour of no change of borders in the Balkans.

    He also expressed satisfaction over the fact that Mr. Burns had clearly stated that he understood the Greek stance which is based on the country's dual identity as a European and Balkan state.

    It is this dual identity, he added, that will allow Greece in the long term to play its role as a force for peace and security in the region.

    [14] AEK Athens friendly in Belgrade meets with success

    BELGRADE, 08/04/1999 (ANA - D. Karakostas)

    The AEK Athens football team was warmly received in Belgrade yesterday by thousands of local residents and Serbian President Milan Milutinovic, who emphasised how moved he was by the club's gesture to play a friendly with Partizan in support of peace. Referring to the ongoing NATO bombing of Yugoslavia, Mr. Milutinovic also expressed a hope that "this evil will soon be over".

    A slight delay in AEK's arrival in Belgrade pushed the game back a half- hour, at 3:30 p.m.

    At two stops they made on the way to Belgrade - one at Vojvodina and the second on the outskirts of Novi Sad - AEK players, team officials, reporters and political personalities from Greece received a rousing welcome from local residents.

    AEK's management repeatedly stated over the past week that "sports were over and above politics" and that the team's visit to Belgrade was aimed at sending a message of peace and not politics.

    [16] Anti-war concerts in Belgrade

    SOFIA, 08/04/1999 (ANA - B. Borisov)

    Noted Greek singer Giorgos Dalaras left for Belgrade yesterday to participate in anti-war concerts in the Yugoslav capital along with Serbian composer Goran Bregovic and other Balkan artists.

    Speaking in Sofia yesterday prior to his departure for Belgrade, he said "we want to focus on the victims of war. We want to say that this region wants peace, friendship and cooperation to forge ahead. We want the refugees to return to their homes."

    "There can be no solution with weapons. 'Solutions' imposed with war are temporary solutions. They have a short-term and are futile. I wonder how reasonable people seeking to be a part of the civilised world are behaving in a way which one could not even immagine in the Middle Ages," he said.

    [17] US ambassador says no travel advisory issued citing Greece

    Athens, 08/04/1999 (ANA)

    US ambassador in Athens Nicholas Burns yesterday assured Development Minister Evangelos Venizelos that Washington has not issued any travel advisory or other official negative recommendation referring to Greece.

    He did cite a "misunderstanding", saying the US embassy in Greece has not issued a travel advisory calling on American citizens to avoid travelling at present to Greece.

    "There was no reason to do so under the current conditions," Mr. Burns said.

    "We just corrected our Internet site following violent demonstrations outside our embassy in Athens and our consulate in Thessaloniki, and threats against our diplomatic staff here.

    "We have the responsibility of informing the American public of the reality here, but we did not recommend against travelling to Greece".

    He noted that there were many Americans currently in Greece who "were having a great time", and many Greek-Americans arriving for the Easter holiday.

    Commenting on a decision to postpone an international tourism conference organised by the US embassy - scheduled for late April in Thessaloniki - Mr. Burns said the decision was based on the fact that due to the current situation in Kosovo, the climate was inappropriate for such a conference.

    The conference is likely to be held in the autumn.

    He added, however, that the US administration wanted to promote American tourism to Greece and vice versa.

    On his part, Mr. Venizelos expressed satisfaction after the meeting with the US ambassador.

    He said that during their meeting Mr. Burns noted that "Greece is a European country, completely safe as a travel destination".

    The Greek minister added that neither Italy nor France had issued travel advisories against Greece.

    Some concerns had been expressed in those countries primarily by headmasters, whose schools were due to visit Greece.

    Advertisements will be accepted from embassies, banks, commercial and maritime companies, chambers of commerce, advertising companies, airlines, organisations, professional associations, educational and research institutions in Greece and abroad as well as international bodies.

    Also, for a small fee, the above groups may channel their Press Releases (PRs), announcements or photographs - in Greek, English or French - to the ANA's more than 100 media subscribers throughout Greece and Cyprus via the recently introduced ANA on-lin e PR's service.

    For details on and arrangements for the advertising and/or PRs on-line service, please contact the ANA Marketing Department, tel: 6400580, or 6400560 (ext. 825), between 10:00 a.m. and 2:30 p.m.
