AKEL has cautioned against introducing new ideas on agreed aspects of the Cyprus problem, including changing the government system from presidential to parliamentary and altering the federation structure. Stefanos Stefanou, AKEL Secretary-General, emphasized that such discussions would complicate the situation and cause fresh deadlocks. He stressed the importance of resuming negotiations from the 2017 stopping point and preserving previously reached convergences.

Stefanou outlined four conditions for moving forward: safeguard past agreements, formally record them through the UN, reject any new proposals on settled issues, and focus on the few remaining matters such as property, transitional arrangements, and implementation. On the issue of the guarantee system, he reaffirmed the UN's position to abolish guarantees, withdraw occupation troops promptly, and prevent unilateral intervention.

Welcoming the UN Secretary-General's initiative to revive talks, AKEL called for protecting the convergences from the 2017 Crans-Montana talks and avoiding reopening settled topics. Stefanou highlighted that a focused roadmap aimed at what remains to be agreed would be critical to breaking the deadlock and achieving a swift solution in Cyprus.
