[01] Cooperation between Greece, Cyprus and Egypt is upgraded, FM Venizelos saysNICOSIA (ANA-MPA/A. Viketos) - The trilateral cooperation between Greece, Cyprus and Egypt has been underway for some time now and this is the third ministerial meeting that we are holding in preparation for the first Summit Meeting, which will take place in a few days in Cairo, Government Vice-President and Foreign Minister Evangelos Venizelos said upon his arrival in Nicosia."So we are upgrading our cooperation due to the crises, as well, that are currently present throughout the region," he noted. Moreover, he said "this is a very important moment for the Republic of Cyprus, because we have the Turkish provocation, the disputing of the existence and legal personality of the Republic of Cyprus, along with its sovereign rights," The Foreign minister made clear that the international community must give a clear response, which Turkey must comprehend. The trilateral cooperation, he said, is not cooperation hostile to Turkey. It is cooperation that is aimed at the stabilization and prosperity of the region. "Just as we can cooperate with Egypt and, naturally, Greece with Cyprus, so must Turkey learn that there is the path of consensus, of cooperation, of respect for international legality. This is of very great importance," he concluded. Venizelos on Wednesday morning will be received by the Cyprus President Nicos Anastasiades.
