Cyprus Demilitarisation

EDM number 221 in 1998-99, proposed by Edward O'Hara on 20/01/1999.

That this House, noting the decision of the Government of Cyprus not to install the S300 missiles in Cyprus, calls upon the government of Turkey to respond positively by entering into a process of negotiation for the scaling down of armaments, as provided in UN Security Council Resolution 1218, thus reducing intercommunal tension and creating the conditions for a peaceful solution to the Cyprus problem.

This motion has been signed by a total of 36 MPs.
