UN Official: High expectations for a Cyprus settlement
There are high expectations here in Cyprus and internationally that a
settlement acceptable to both communities can finally be reached, said
here Friday, the Special Representative of the Secretary-General for
Cyprus and Chief of Mission Tayie Brook Zerihoun.
Addressing the Fifth Annual Session of the Mediterranean Model United
Nations (MEDIMUN) in Nicosia, Zerihoun said ``the two leaders have
shown great commitment and determination to the peace effort despite
considerable challenges and criticism of the process``.
Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon, he added, has commended the leaders on
several occasions for their effort and for the progress achieved so
far.
``As is the case in all negotiations, if the process is to be
successful the two sides must demonstrate flexibility and accommodate
each others concerns to the extent possible``, he stressed.
