US Deputy Assistant Secretary in the Bureau of European and Eurasian Affairs Amanda Sloat expressed the belief that today there is a critical window of opportunity to resolve the Cyprus problem that has persisted for far too long.
“With the strong commitment of both the Greek Cypriot and the Cypriot leaders, the active UN facilitation and the support of the United States and the broad international community, including both Turkey and Greece, there is a real potential for concrete progress in the months ahead,” Sloat said, addressing the 31st Annual Cyprus and Hellenic Leadership Conference held on June 3-5 in Washington.
Amanda Sloat also spoke about the great economic opportunities a Cyprus settlement will bring to the people of the island, by attracting investments in tourism, shipping and other sectors.
