The leaders of the Greek Cypriot and the Turkish Cypriot community will finalise the text of a press release they are set to issue tomorrow, as the latest round of intensified peace talks to reunite Cyprus comes to an end, before they move to New York for a scheduled meeting in late September with the UN Secretary General.
Cyprus President Nicos Anastasiades and Turkish Cypriot leader Mustafa Akinci are expected, at tomorrow`s meeting, to discuss the agenda of the proposed meeting in New York with Ban Ki Moon, set for 26 September.
Experts from two sides have already talked about various drafts of the press release, which Ban`s Special Representative for Cyprus Espen Barth Eide will read at the end of Wednesday`s meeting, expected to conclude before 14.00 local time (13.00 GMT). Afterwards, Eide will probably take questions from the press.
Before their meeting, President Anastasiades and Akinci will be presented with a book on the work of the Committee on Missing Persons (CMP), in the presence of all three Committee members.
The book, as Nestoras Nestoros, the representative to the CMP of the Greek Cypriot community, said it comprises photographs by acclaimed British photographer Nick Danziger and text by Scottish writer Rory McLean.
“The book outlines in general the work of the CMP in all its phases and in addition it includes stories, experiences and the work of experts and scientists working for the CMP,” Nestoros said.
The official presentation of the book will take place next Tuesday, 20/9, in Nicosia. There will be a presentation in Brussels on 11 October in the presence of European Parliament President Martin Schulz and Commission President Jean Claud Juncker.
