Speaking to journalists after the informal meeting, the President referred to a creative effort for deliberations on Monday, on behalf of the negotiators and the UN special envoy Jane Holl Lute.

Despite the well-known difficulties, the result of today’s meeting is considered a very positive first step in the effort to resume the dialogue, Nicos Anastasiades noted.
