A second conference in Geneva begins on…

Denktash proposes a bizonal federation, with Turkish Cypriots controlling thirty-four percent of island.

When this proposal is rejected, the Turkish foreign minister proposes a Turkish Cypriot zone in the northern part of the island and five Turkish Cypriot enclaves elsewhere, all of which would amount once again to thirty-four percent of the island's area.

Clerides asks for a recess of thirty-six to forty-eight hours to consult with the government in Nicosia and with Makarios in London.

His request is refused.
