July 26, 2026
Antonio Guterres is visiting Cyprus to attempt to organize an informal conference regarding the Cyprus issue. However, significant disagreements exist between the two leaders, Christodoulides and Erhürman. The two sides have different approaches to the solution, with Christodoulides supporting a return to negotiations from where they left off in 2017, while Erhürman calls for a different methodology. The UN Secretary-General emphasizes the need for ongoing dialogue and cooperation. Nevertheless, prospects for an agreement seem limited as the positions of the two sides are significantly apart.
