President Christodoulides and Turkish Cypriot leader Erhurman to meet for talks
President Nikos Christodoulides and Turkish Cypriot leader Tufan Erhurman are scheduled to meet on Monday, April 6, 2026, at 16:30 at the residence of the UN special representative in Nicosia. This meeting marks their first joint session following their separate discussions with the UN Secretary-General, Antonio Guterres, held on February 11 in New York for Erhurman and March 18 in Brussels for the President. The agenda includes an exchange of views on the Secretary-General's insights regarding progress in the Cyprus issue and discussions on potential procedural steps forward. While Christodoulides has expressed political will to achieve positive results, media reports characterize the meeting as having low expectations due to limited progress in confidence-building measures and official dialogue. The leaders previously met on January 28 and February 24, 2026, the latter concluding without a joint statement. The meeting will take place without media presence, focusing on exploring common ground rather than formal negotiations.
