Rehn says all sides must take the chance on offer
"Rehn says all sides must take the chance on offer
By Simon Bahceli

Europe stands ready to support a Cypriot solution for the sake of Cyprus and the European Union, EU Commissioner for Enlargement Olli Rehn said yesterday.

Rehn was speaking at the end of a one-day visit to the island aimed at taking stock of ongoing negotiations for a settlement of the Cyprus problem. During his visit he met separately with Greek and Turkish Cypriot leaders, President Demetris Christofias and Mehmet Ali Talat, as well as UN special envoy to Cyprus Alexander Downer.

Rehn said his visit came at a “crucial time” in the negotiating process and that “there is a unique chance this year to reunite Cyprus and bring to an end this long-standing conflict on European soil”."
