The leaders of ethnically divided Cyprus, Ersin Tatar and Nikos Christodoulides, have made some progress in building trust between Greek and Turkish-speaking communities but face challenges in restarting peace talks. They agreed on restoring cemeteries and forming a youth group, echoing previous agreements with UN Secretary General António Guterres. However, key initiatives like solar energy parks and crossing points remain unresolved. Tatar advocates for a two-state solution, while Greek Cypriots reject any deal that solidifies partition.
