The Cypriot government is pleased with the decision of the
United States, as was announced on May 31, 2006 by the
American Secretary of State Condoleeza Rice, to participate
in the negotiations with Iran regarding Tehran,s nuclear
program. Simultaneously, the government welcomes yesterday's

peace and stability and the global economy.
