1. SUMMARY: ALTHOUGH MOST JUNE 20 GREEK CYPRIOT
NEWSPAPERS GAVE MAJOR COVERAGE TO THE GREEK
GOVERNMENT'S RESPONSE TO THE U.S. TRAVEL ADVISORY ON
TRAVEL VIA ATHENS AIRPORT, THE AKEL-GOC CONTROVERSY
OVER THE USE OF LARNACA AIRPORT BY AMERICAN FORCES
CONTINUED TO RECEIVE ATTENTION. END SUMMARY.
2. THE GOC SPOKESMAN REITERATED JUNE 19 THAT THE U.S.
IS NOT ALLOWED TO USE LARNACA AIRPORT FOR MILITARY
PURPOSES, BUT FOR HUMANITARIAN REASONS AND TRANSPORT
OF MAIL. HE ALSO SAID THAT THE HOUSE OF
REPRESENTATIVES HAD BEEN NOTIFIED ABOUT THE U.S. USE
OF LARNACA AIRPORT IN THE PAST AND WILL BE CONSULTED
AGAIN ON THE CURRENT SITUATION.
3. ON JUNE 20, COMMUNIST "HARAVGHI" STATED "THAT THE

SUBJECT CATAGORY: TWA 847 II
MESSAGE / ANNOTATION:
AMERICANS ARE USING THE FACILITIES AT LARNACA
AIRPORT." ACCORDING TO AKEL'S CENTRAL COMMITTEE,
CYPRUS, A NONALIGNED COUNTRY, IS NOW BEING USED BY THE
U.S. ARMED FORCES AS A BASE AND TRANSIT STATION FOR
NEW INTERVENTIONS IN NEIGHBORING LEBANON. AKEL
DEMANDED THAT ALL "FACILITIES" GIVEN TO NATO COUNTRIES
TWO YEARS AGO (DURING THE MULTINATIONAL FORCE
OPERATIONS IN LEBANON) SHOULD BE ABOLISHED, ALL
FOREIGN TROOPS SHOULD LEAVE AND THEIR BASES BE
EXPROPRIATED. ACCORDING TO MOSCOW-LINE COMMUNIST
AKEL, "CYPRUS IS FOR THE CYPRIOTS!"
4. ON JUNE 20 CENTRIST "AGON" EXPRESSED ITS FEAR THAT
PRESIDENT REAGAN, AFTER VERBALLY ATTACKING AND
THREATENING GREECE, MIGHT RESORT TO VIOLENCE IF CYPRUS
DID NOT LET THE U.S. USE THE AIRPORT FACILITIES IN
LARNACA. THEREFORE, "AGON" SAID, "THE ATTITUDE OF THE
CYPRUS GOVERNMENT HAS BEEN WISE IN ITS DECISION TO
PROVIDE THE U.S. WITH FACILITIES AT LARNACA AIRPORT."
5. LOCAL REACTION TO PRESIDENT REAGAN'S STATEMENT ON
ATHENS AIRPORT: CENTRIST "AGON" CALLED PRESIDENT
REAGAN'S COMMENTS "UNACCEPTABLE, INCONCEIVABLE, AND
PROVOCATIVE. THE UNITED STATES IS SEEKING TO PUT
RESPONSIBILITIES WHERE THEY DO NOT EXIST. IT SEARCHES
FOR EXCUSES TO HARM GREECE, BECAUSE IT WANTS TO PUNISH
PAPANDREOU." RIGHTIST "SIMERINI" AGREED THAT
PRESIDENT REAGAN'S STATEMENTS ABOUT GREECE WERE
"WRONG, UNFAIR, AND VINDICTIVE."

2. BEGIN TEXT.
IT FILLS US WITH THE DEEPEST CONCERN THAT THE HOSTAGE-
TAKING IN BEIRUT HAS STILL NOT BEEN RESOLVED. THE
GOVERNMENT SHARES THE VIEW, EXPRESSED BY THE U.S.
GOVERNMENT, THAT ONE SHOULD NOT GIVE IN TO INTER-
NATIONAL TERRORISM. IT IS TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE THAT
THIS TYPE OF INHUMAN METHOD OF EXTORTION IS USED TO
PROMOTE POLITICAL GOALS.
THE AIRPLANE HIJACKERS' TERRORIST ACTIONS ARE DIRECTED
AGAINST INNOCENT CIVILIANS WITHOUT ANY TIE TO THE

CONDEMNATION OF THIS TERROR.
EVERY COMMUNITY FOUNDED ON THE RULE OF THE LAW IS
