President Nikos Christodoulides and Turkish Cypriot leader Ersin Tatar will meet on 20 January in Nicosia, Government Spokesman Konstantinos Letymbiotis has confirmed to the Cyprus News Agecy (CNA).

He said the topic of discussion will be the opening of new crossing points on the island.

Back in October, UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres hosted an informal dinner with Christodoulides and Tatar in New York, encouraging the leaders “to consider how to bridge the gap in their positions and rebuild trust to allow movement leading to a settlement”.

At the meeting, President Christodoulides and Tatar agreed to have an informal meeting in a broader format in the near future, under the auspices of the Secretary-General, to discuss the way forward. They also agreed to have a meeting in Cyprus to explore the possibility of opening new crossings.
