Quote: The European Union has dropped plans to hold a last-ditch meeting with Turkish and Cypriot officials, to be hosted by Finland in Helsinki at the weekend.

Finland said it was unable to get all sides around the table - but that it would keep trying for a breakthrough.

Quote:
A meeting of European Union foreign ministers concerning the Cyprus question, which was to have taken place in Helsinki during the weekend, has been cancelled. Cyprus, as well as representatives of the Turkish northern part of the island, were ready to hold talks, but there was insufficient political will in Turkey.

Quote: "Turkey still does not understand the seriousness of the situation. The Turks are waiting for some kind of miraculous solution from the December summit, but no such thing is going to happen....
