Cyprus Talks: Akinci calls on Greek Cypriot side to adopt Guterres framework
President of the Turkish Republic of North Cyprus, Mustafa Akinci on Monday said that if the
Greek Cypriot side was ready to accept the Guterres framework without
changes, it could be announced as a strategic package agreement.
In a brief tweet Akinci said
Meanwhile the Greek Cypriot side has been saying, since the talks failed in Crans-Montana last year, that they wanted the framework laid down by UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres to be the basis for the resumption of negotiations.
According to Greek Cypriot daily, Cyprus Mail, statements from the Turkish side since Crans-Montana have been
focused on a ‘new roadmap’ for the talks, even outside the UN framework,
as stated by Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu when he was in
the north last week.
