Leader of the Greek Cypriot Administration Nikos Anastasiadis called British High Commissioner Damian Roderick (Ric) Todd to avoid using groundless expressions. Todd said that it is an objective reality that Turkish Cypriots are under isolations and that Direct Trade Regulation is the aim of the EU.
Greek Cypriot radio announced that Anastasiadis said: “It is better not to use such groundless expressions in a period when delicate actions are needed in the Cyprus issue.”
