In turn, the Special Adviser to the UN Secretary General Alexander Downer confirmed the assessment of the Hristofiasa, recognizing that today's meeting was not productive " ".
Negotiations are to resume before the end of January 2012 onwards.
Recall a previous meeting his rival and leader of Cyprus Demetris heads the self-proclaimed Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus, Dervis Èdorglu, organized on the initiative of the UNITED NATIONS, took place this summer, but failed to produce tangible results.
UN diplomats hope that countries will come to an agreement until July 2012, when the EU will become State President of Cyprus. Earlier, Turkish authorities have already threatened that such an outcome would break relations with the EU.
Only the Greek part of Cyprus has received international recognition. In 1974, with the support of the Greek coup d ' état took place in Cyprus, after which Turkey invaded the northern part of the island, and he, in fact, was split. The Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus is under the international economic embargo and is recognized only by Turkey.
Between the island's Greek and Turkish communities remain major differences — particularly in relation to property, the right of return of expelled from their homes, and maintain security.
