President Reagan informed Congress that a Just resolution of the problems of Cyprus will be a priority for his administration. I strongly support a high priority being assigned to resolving the problems of Cyprus. Congressional interest In the Cyprus problem remains high. Since 1974. congress has appropriated approximately $145 million in relief assistance for Cyprus. We have recently begun earmarking a significant portion of this assistance for scholarships for the children of refugees and other needy persons to study in the United States. I understand that 60 Greek and Turkish Cypriot students are beginning their studies under this program at American universities this month. We enjoy having these wonderful young people here.
