Delays in the Cyprus Process Due to Erhürman's Stance

October 30, 2025

Tufan Erhürman, the new leader of the Turkish Cypriots, has not yet responded to proposals for meetings regarding the Cyprus issue. He requires a prior meeting with Turkish President Erdoğan. This is delaying the process and the visit of the UN Secretary-General's envoy, Maria Angela Olguin. Erhürman's current actions leave open the possibility of further delays for the upcoming multilateral conference. In contrast, Christodoulides has already held significant meetings in the Cyprus process.
