Greek and Turkish Cypriot leaders on Monday held the first of two meetings, under United Nations sponsorship, for the reunification of the Mediterranean island.
“The leaders had a good and long discussion today for around two and a half hours,” said UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon’s Special Adviser on Cyprus, Alexander Downer. “It was a good opportunity for them to talk about a range of issues.”
Greek Cypriot leader Dimitris Christofias and his Turkish Cypriot counterpart, Dervis Eroglu will meet again on Friday. The upcoming meeting will focus on governance and power-sharing.
“All chapters are being negotiated with the aim of increasing the points of convergence on the understanding that nothing is agreed until everything is agreed,” added Downer.
