text: General, as it had supported his previous efforts, which, unfortunately, did not come to fruition. 48. It is therefore a source of satisfaction to us that the Secretary-General states in his report that he has been able to convene a high-level meeting in January. In view of the fact that this high-level meeting between the President of Cyprus and Mr. Denktas has been convened, I shall, for obvious reasons, refrain from touching upon the substance of the matter. I shall con- fine myself to joining, with satisfaction, in the cautious optimism voiced by President Kyprianou in his state- ment of 12 December. 49. I should like, however, in this context, to extend to the Secretary-General my Government’s deepest appreciation and sincerest thanks for his dedication and efforts, which have been untiring indeed. 50. My Government most earnestly wishes the crucial round of negotiations to be conducted between Pres- ident Kyprianou of Cyprus and Mr. Denktav in the course of their meeting in January, under the auspices of the Secretary-General, to lead to a fair and viable solution of the Cyprus problem, on the basis of the provisions of the relevant United Nations resolutions, so that the people of Cyprus, free from outside inter- ference, may seek a future that will compensate them for the tragic circumstances in which they have la- boured in the past years. 51. I should like also to express my Government’s deep appreciation for the way in which UNFICYP is carrying out its difficult and delicate task. Particular thanks in this respect go to Major-General Greindl. Finally, I express my Government’s gratitude to all the troop-contributing countries which have offered con- tingents of their nationals or otherwise made their con- tribution, thus allowing the United Nations to carry out its peace-keeping task in Cyprus.
