• 6. My Government is concerned that the humani- tarian problems, especially those relating to missing persons in Cyprus, remain unresolved. While working towards a just and durable solution to the underlying conflict, the parties can and should take immediate measures to alleviate the plight of thousands of Cypriots. Let me end, therefore, by urging the parties to co-operate in a humanitarian spirit under the aus- pices of the Red Cross in order to address the problem of missing persons and other urgent concerns of the people of Cyprus.
