Assistant UNSG Miroslav Jenca said on Monday that he reaffirmed UN’s unwavering commitment to peace in Cyprus during his visit on the island.
Jenca noted in a post on X (former Twitter), that he is pleased with the detailed discussions he had with the President of the Republic, Nikos Christodoulides and Turkish Cypriot leader Ersin Tatar, where, as he noted in his tweet, he reaffirmed “the UN’s unwavering commitment to peace on the island.”
Earlier on Monday, Jenca visited the photo exhibition ‘Inclusive Diplomacy: Women’s participation in the Cyprus Talks’, located outside Ledra Palace Hotel in UN bufferzone, in support of women’s participation in peacemaking, as UN in Cyprus noted in a post in X (Twitter).
Cyprus has been divided since 1974, when Turkey invaded and occupied its northern third. Repeated rounds of UN-led peace talks have so far failed to yield results. The latest round of negotiations, in July 2017 at the Swiss resort of Crans-Montana ended inconclusively.
