We cannot but welcome this effort of the Secretary General. It is something the President of the Republic himself has repeatedly requested from the Secretary General. Our effort is to avoid a hasty new process of negotiations,which would fail in no time, because that would be a catastrophe for Cyprus. That is why we are insisting on properly preparing the ground, creating the necessary conditions so that when a new process begins there would truly be realistic prospects to lead this process to an agreed solution and this is what we expect the UN Secretary General to do.
