The UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres in a statement issued early on Wednesday underscored the UN’s commitment to participate in securing a peaceful resolution to the Cyprus issue, for the benefit of all Cypriots and future generations.

The statement also noted that Tatar and Christodoulides agreed to hold another informal meeting under the Secretary-General’s auspices, involving a broader format, to discuss the path forward.

Additionally, the leaders reached a consensus on meeting in Cyprus to explore the possibility of opening new border crossings.

Guterres reaffirmed the UN’s unwavering commitment to achieving a peaceful resolution to the Cyprus issue that benefits all Cypriots and future generations, emphasizing the importance of continued dialogue and cooperation.
