Press Conference for the first 120 days of the governance of President Christofias
The key to a solution is in the hands of
Turkey and largely on her will, the President of the Republic Mr
Demetris Christofias stated during a Press Conference he gave
yesterday, for the first 120 days of his governance. We had, however,
stated that we will do our utmost to create the conditions for a
solution, he added. This is what we have been doing from the first day
of my presidency and we believe that the results so far vindicate our
policy, Mr Christofias said. They vindicate our position that, in the
face of the stagnation and deadlocks caused by Turkey's stance, we have
to take specific and continuous initiatives in various directions based
on the principles for a solution to the Cyprus problem, he noted.
Moreover, referring to his meetings with the Turkish Cypriot leader Mr
Mehmet Ali Talat, President Christofias stressed that "whatever has
been achieved since the 21st of March is the outcome of mutual
understanding between the two leaders". "I say this without ignoring
the existing different approaches and the difficulties we are facing",
he added.
