1. (U) This is an action request. The Department instructs
USUN to join consensus on the following PRST on Cyprus
scheduled to be approved by the Security Council on April 30,
2009.
2. (U) Begin text:
The Security Council commends the Greek Cypriot and Turkish
Cypriot leaders for the political leadership they have shown
and warmly welcomes the progress made so far in the
fully-fledged negotiations, and the leaders, joint
statements.
The Security Council strongly urges the leaders to increase
the momentum in the negotiations to ensure the full
exploitation of this opportunity to reach a comprehensive
settlement based on a bicommunal, bizonal federation with
political equality as set out in the relevant Security
Council resolutions.
The Security Council emphasises the importance of all parties
engaging fully, flexibly and constructively and looks forward
to decisive progress in the negotiations in the near future.
The Security Council recognises that a solution requires the
support of both sides and will require the approval of both
communities in separate and simultaneous referenda. In this
context, the Security Council fully supports the
Secretary-General's Good Offices Mission and encourages the
SG's Special Adviser to continue to offer the leaders any
support they need to achieve a settlement.
The Security Council reiterates its full support for the
process and underlines the benefits that reunification will
bring to the Island.
