Ban stated in his letter: “Mr.Derviş Eroğlu, I appreciate your perfect co-operation within the period of your duty and on the other hand I appreciate your eagerness in order to find a comprehensive settlement on the Cyprus issue and also I appreciate your sincerity at the leaders’ summit meetings in Geneva and Green-tree in 2011 and 2012.
He concluded his letter “even if you couldn’t reach a settlement on the Cyprus issue within the period of your duty, we have always been committed to this critical aim as the UN and we supported both of the communities at the resolution efforts in the Cyprus problem. In this context I believe that you will give support to Cyprus negotiations in the following weeks and months.”
