UN Chief Guterres Announces New Talks on Cyprus Question
UN Secretary-General António Guterres visited Cyprus and announced the convening of a new 5+1 conference to advance the Cyprus question. He called on the parties to prepare for confidence-building measures, methodology, and substantive issues. Cypriot government spokesman Konstantinos Letymbiotis assessed this as an opening for a return to the substance of the Cyprus problem, though different interpretations of the announcement have already emerged.
