A statement was issued by the UN after an inconclusive outcome to the Mont Pèlerin summit.
The statement said that the leaders have been engaged in serious and sustained negotiations over the last two days in Mont Pèlerin and despite their best efforts, they have not been able to achieve the necessary further convergences on criteria for territorial adjustment that would have paved the way for the last phase of the talks.
The statement said that the two sides have decided to return to Cyprus and reflect on the way forward. The statement added that the Special Adviser of the Secretary-General, Espen Barth Eide, would “bring these developments to the attention of the Secretary-General”.
