[01] COMMUNITY LEADERS TALKS - PROPERTY
President of the Republic of Cyprus Demetris Christofias and Turkish
Cypriot leader Mehmet Ali Talat will meet again Friday in the framework
of the ongoing UN-led direct negotiations for a solution to the Cyprus
problem, during which they will continue discussion on the chapter of
property.
The meeting will start at 1000 local time at the UN Protected Area of
Nicosia.
Alexander Downer, UN Secretary-General Special Adviser on the Cyprus
problem had said that during the last meeting, the two leaders held a
friendly discussion on the property issue but need more meetings to
make progress on the issue as they gradually make progress while
getting closer to the end of the process and eventually move to another
chapter.
Christofias and Talat began UN-led talks in September 2008 in a bid to
achieve a mutually agreed solution to the problem of Cyprus, divided
since 1974 when Turkey invaded and occupied its northern third.
The two leaders have entered the second phase of the talks for the
``second reading`` of the six chapters of the Cyprus problem, namely,
governance and power-sharing, property, EU matters, economic matters,
territory and security and guarantees.
