Cyprus President to hold key meeting with UN Secretary-General during 81st UN General Assembly
The President of Cyprus, Nikos Christodoulides, is scheduled to meet with UN Secretary-General António Guterres on September 24 during the high-level week of the 81st UN General Assembly in New York. This meeting is considered a pivotal diplomatic moment, focusing on efforts to restart substantive negotiations concerning the Cyprus issue.
Government Spokesperson Konstantinos Letymbiotis highlighted the significance of the UN General Assembly week as the top diplomatic event of the year, with Cyprus emphasizing the restoration of trust and the promotion of multilateralism—core principles pursued by the Cypriot government for over five decades. The President is also expected to meet with other world leaders, institutional partners, and energy sector leaders during his stay.
Ahead of his meeting with Guterres, the President will confer with the UN Secretary-General's personal envoy for Cyprus, Karen Olguin, who arrives in New York next Tuesday. Discussions will likely cover confidence-building measures and methodologies aimed at convening an expanded international meeting to advance peace talks. The President will also address the General Assembly, reaffirming Cyprus’s commitment to becoming a modern European state free from outdated guarantees and occupation forces.
