NICOSIA, Dec. 16 -- A United Nations envoy discussed here with Cypriot President Nicos Anastasiades the modalities of resuming Cyprus peace negotiations on Sunday.
"There was a discussion on the terms of reference for the resumption of negotiations and the crucial issues of the Cyprus problem," government spokesman Prodromos Prodromou said after a two-hour meeting between Anastasiades and Jane Hol Lute, a personal envoy of UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres.
Lute will be meeting Turkish Cypriot leader Mustafa Akinci on Monday.
Prodomou said that Lute will have a second meeting with Anastasiades before she ends a five-day mission in Cyprus.
He revealed that the UN envoy did not bring any written proposals on how to resume negotiations and on how they will be conducted.
Negotiations between the Greek and Turkish Cypriot communities ended inconclusively in July 2017, after Turkey said it was not ready to rescind intervention rights in Cyprus and to pull out occupation troops from the eastern Mediterranean island.
Turkey occupied the northern part of Cyprus in a 1974 military operation, in reaction to a coup by the military rulers of Greece at the time, turning an internal dispute between the two communities of Cyprus into an intractable international problem.
