Cyprus Dispute Solution in Sight

tsipras-anastasiades
Cypriot President Nicos Anastasiades briefed Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras on negotiations that took place last week at Mont Pelerin, Switzerland, concerning the Cyprus issue. The two sides of the island are close to making a conclusive agreement, and there are chances that a deal concerning land may be finalized between Anastasiades and the Turkish-Cypriot leader Mustafa Akinci when talks between both sides restart on November 20.
Sources state that following two-day negotiations (November 20-21), the negotiating teams may extend talks for another two days to discuss members of concern to both communities living on the island. A conclusion regarding the talks may even take place within December.
This means that a meeting concerning securities and warranties involving Greece and Turkey that would lead to an end to the long-standing dispute is not unlikely by the end of the year. In Athens, Tsipras briefed Anastasiades on the meetings he had with U.S. President Barack Obama on Tuesday. The meeting was attended by Foreign Ministers of Greece and Cyprus, Nikos Kotzias and Ioannis Kasoulides and Government Spokesman Nikos Christodoulides.
