[CNA] Sanctions remain, but the MoU is a sign of a positive step, says the President

Sanctions remain, but the MoU is a sign of a positive step, President Anastasiades said on Sunday.

Asked by media on Sunday, after the end of the St. Maron's Day service, whether we are changing the policy from the sanctions we sought to confidence-building measures, he said that "sanctions remain in the technical committee, which will work on them further."

"But at the same time and as an indication of a positive step in the effort we are making to create that appropriate and positive climate, is the implementation on the one hand of the MoU, which we are proposing, but of course, on the other hand, for Turkey to stop acting in the illegal way that it is acting either in terms of violating the status of Famagusta, the EEZ of Cyprus, but also the recent events which, unfortunately, demonstrate an obsession with intransigence, BR\](CNA)
