Negotiations on Cyprus Conflict Settlement to Restart on May 15

Negotiations between the two leaders of Cyprus will start on May 15. Special advisor of UN secretary general Espen Bart Eyde said this after a dinner with the president of Cyprus Nikos Anastasiadis and leader of turkish-cypriots Mustafa Akinci, RIA Novosti reports.

Eyde said, that the dinner passed in a good atmosphere and both leaders talked about the desire of moving forward. He named the atmosphere of the last weeks “inspiring”. In his opinion Greek and Turkish communities must seize the given opportunity. 

Negotiations on the Cyprus issue were stopped in October 2014, after Turkey started seismic exploration of hydrocarbons in the economic zone of Cyprus. In March Ankara announced about recalling its mission, which was conducting exploration works in Cyprus shelf. This gave an opportunity for the restart of negotiations between the sides.
