Best chance ever

For the first time in decades, there are great possibilities for finding a solution to the Cyprus issue, outgoing UN Special Representative Michael Moller said yesterday at a farewell visit to Christofias.

“From what I have seen in the last few weeks, I don’t think that for four decades you have had a better possibility and a better opportunity to get where you need to go,” he said speaking in Greek.

He said that the two leaders are full of good will, there is a very good atmosphere, as is the desire on the side of both communities for peace and for reunification. "It is a desire that is echoed in the rest of the world and it is time for everybody to get together and find a solution as quickly as possible,” Moller said, adding that he has always stressed that "this is a Cypriot problem that needs a Cypriot solution. This is a theme that President Christofias and Mr Talat both agree with".
