President Dervis Eroglu of Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus (TRNC) said that going on Cyprus talks in an open-ended way would prevent reaching a solution.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

During a meeting on Monday, Eroglu said that there could be a study by a technical committee in order to eliminate the inconsistencies, but a “leaders meeting” was not on the agenda.<\/p>\n

Eroglu said that Greek Cypriot leader Demetris Christofias did not accept a multilateral conference on Cyprus issue, and mentioned carrying out open-ended talks.<\/p>\n

An open-ended talk would continue 40 more years, and no one could make Turkish Cypriots sit on the negotiation table for another 40 years, he added.<\/p>\n

On April 27, UN head’s special Cyprus adviser Alexander Downer said he planned to carry out “a two-week shuttle diplomacy” between Turkish and Greek Cypriot leaders to see if they could agree on methods for a fresh round of settlement negotiations to reunify their island.<\/p>\n

“There will be no peace talks between the sides until leaders find a common ground to continue with the negotiations in a fresh round,” Downer noted.<\/p>\n

Downer said the UN head had an intention to hold a international conference on the Cyprus issue this summer, adding that Ban’s decision hinged on a “common negotiations ground” between the two leaders that could lead to a comprehensive solution.<\/p>\n
