§ Mr. R. AllanThe Ministerial meeting of the North Atlantic Council in Paris during the week before Christmas gave the opportunity for confidential talks on Cyprus between my right hon. and learned Friend and the Greek and Turkish Foreign Ministers. They had a useful exchange of views and agreed that further discussions should take place through the diplomatic channel.
