"What we expect to hear", continued the Archbishop, "is a solution in line with human rights, without any prejudice and fear from the powerful".

Answering a question about whether more active involvement in the European Union process is a guarantee for a solution that will ensure the human rights of all the island's inhabitants, he said that "indeed, the European Union can protect us from some abuses", as he said.
