In Cyprus they agreed to open two more crossing points between the northern and southern parts of the island

— new negotiations on unification ahead

On November 9 the President of Cyprus Nikos Christodoulides and the leader of the Turkish Cypriots Tufan Erhürman held a meeting mediated by UN representative María Ángela Holguín.

🤝 As a result of the negotiations the opening of two new crossings was agreed:

📍 Louroujina — Limnia

📍 Kampos — Karavostasi

Both points should start operating simultaneously after the necessary preparation.

The exact opening date has not yet been announced.

The parties also agreed on cooperation in the field of education, protection of cultural heritage and ecology.

🕊 Next step

— a meeting of the two leaders with UN Secretary-General António Guterres in the coming weeks.

The main goal is to resume negotiations on the future unification of Cyprus after a multi-year deadlock.
