Cyprus President Nikos Christodoulides says the United Nations is likely to put forward a renewed push to resolve the island’s long-running dispute before Secretary-General Antonio Guterres’ term ends at the end of the year. Speaking in an interview on Cyprus broadcaster Alpha TV, Christodoulides—who represents Greek Cypriots in negotiations with Turkish Cypriots—linked the expected timing to the UN chief’s remaining mandate. The reports indicate the UN is considering moving ahead with a new “peace plan” to address the decades-old division on the island, which has remained unresolved since the Turkish military intervention in 1974 and the subsequent separation of governance and territory. Both outlets present Christodoulides’ remarks as the main basis for the claim, and neither provides additional details on the content of any proposed UN initiative. The statements reflect expectations for renewed diplomacy within the UN framework as Guterres approaches the end of his leadership period.
