Ms Fontaine supported Cyprus’ accession to the EU as well as efforts by the United Nations towards a settlement of the Cyprus problem. Mr. Papapetrou stated that this was the first time that such clear messages were sent following Turkey’s threats to annex Cyprus’ northern occupied areas, endorsing once again the EU’s support for Cyprus accession.
