Greek Foreign Minister Demetris Droutsas on Tuesday urged Turkey to act constructively for a solution to the decades-old Cyprus problem, Xinhua reported.
Droutsas was in Cyprus for a two-day visit for talks with Greek Cypriots before flying to London and New York.
He expressed support for a viable solution in Cyprus, adding that the Cyprus issue is "a top priority" for Athens and a precondition for the normalization of Greek-Turkish relationship.
Turkey sent troops to the eastern Mediterranean island in 1974, in response to a coup by Greek army officers. In 1983, the Turkish Cypriot authorities declared breakaway and set up "the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus," which is recognized only by Turkey.
