/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Matthew Bryza, the U.S. Deputy Assistant Secretary
of State for European and Eurasian Affairs, said that Turkey's EU
membership process should continue. In a statement in the Greek
newspaper Eleftherotypia, Bryza put forward ideas that would help
the deadlocked talks between Turkey and the European Union and the
Cyprus issue.
Bryza said he found a positive atmosphere in both Ankara and Cyprus
as well as in the EU countries' capitals on this issue during
his meetings. He believes in a compromise between Turkey and the
European Union, since nobody wants Turkey's membership train to
be derailed. Bryza added that Washington supported the U.N. and EU
efforts on the Cyprus issue; however, there is not yet any "U.S. plan"
related to it, reported Zaman Turkish newspaper.
