Guterres: Resolving the Cyprus issue is critically important for regional stability
The Cyprus issue remains one of the factors contributing to instability in the region, UN Secretary-General António Guterres said during his visit to the island.
The UN chief noted that resuming negotiations to resolve the Cyprus conflict is “absolutely necessary” amid rising tensions in the region.
During his two-day visit to Cyprus, Guterres held meetings with the leaders of the Turkish Cypriots and Greek Cypriots, stressing the need to find a solution that would ensure peace and stability.
Cyprus has remained divided since 1974. A UN-controlled buffer zone separates the island, while negotiations on a political settlement have remained fruitless for many years.
