National Council to convene ahead of trilateral meeting in New York

The National Council is set to convene at the Presidential Palace at 11am on Monday, 7 October to discuss the forthcoming trilateral meeting of Cyprus President Nikos Christodoulides with the UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres and Turkish Cypriot leader Ersin Tarar in New York on 15 October.

In statements to CNA, Government Spokesperson, Konstantinos Letymbiotis, said that President Christodoulides, will brief the members of the National Council about the important meetings he held in New York on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly, while there will be an exchange of views and the necessary coordination in view of the 15 October meeting in New York.

According to the Spokesperson, the President will inform the National Council “about the important meetings he held in New York”, including his meeting with the UN Secretary-General and the representatives of the five permanent members of the Security Council.

“Furthermore, there will be a briefing and an exchange of views and the necessary coordination ahead of the October 15 joint meeting”, between President Christodoulides, and Turkish Cypriot leader, Ersin Tatar, in the presence of the UN Secretary-General, he added.

Cyprus has been divided since 1974, when Turkey invaded and occupied its northern third. Repeated rounds of UN-led peace talks have so far failed to yield results. The latest round of negotiations, in July 2017 at the Swiss resort of Crans-Montana ended conclusively.
