Cyprus to host Euro-Mediterranean Centre at Boutros Ghali initiative
Euro-Mediterranean Centre for the peaceful resolution of conflicts in the Mediterranean region will be established in Limassol on the initiative of the former UN Secretary General Boutros Boutros-Ghali, who was received today by President of the Republic Demetris Christofias.
In statements at the Presidential Palace following the meeting, Ghali told the Press that with President Christofias “they discussed the creation of a (Euro Mediterranean) Centre which will hopefully assist the young generation in the preparation of arbitration, mediation, peaceful solution of disputes”.
He also expressed the belief that “the geopolitical position of Cyprus will help us to play a role”.
In conclusion, he said that “the choice of Cyprus (as the base of the Centre) will be important not only for Cyprus but for the community in this part of the world”.
