It was also pointed out that Greece and the Greek Cypriot side demand the total removal of Turkish soldiers in Cyprus, however this issue is a red line for President Ak\u0131nc\u0131.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cWe are the people from the same generation as Mr. Anastasiades. We are trying to reach a settlement for the final time as people of the same generation. The Geneva talks may be \u00a0the last opportunity to reach peace in Cyprus\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In the interview, Ak\u0131nc\u0131 also said that the young generations in Cyprus grow up without recognising each other and learning each other\u2019s languages. They travel to each other\u2019s areas as tourists. They have grown up as two foreign communities.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Answering the question, \u201cWill the removal of Turkish soldiers be on the agenda?\u201d, Ak\u0131nc\u0131 said, \u201cNo, that is out of the question. Certainly, a number of soldiers will stay on the island. There is a need for the Turkish soldiers here. The realities are very clear\u201d.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The leaders will meet on 9 January 2017 in Geneva. On 12 January 2017, the five-party conference will be held with participation of the guarantor countries; Turkey, Greece and the UK.
