Nicosia, Jan 12 Jane Holl Lute, the UN special envoy to Cyprus, held separate discussions here with the leaders of the divided island, in a bid to nail down details for an international conference to promote new peace negotiations, officials of the two sides said.On Monday, Lute first met with Cypriot President Nicos Anastasiades, representing the Greek Cypriot community, and then headed for a similar meeting with Turkish Cypriot leader Ersin Tatar on the other side of the fence that divides Nicosia, the capital city, reports Xinhua news agency.Cypriot government spokesman Kyriakos Koushos said that President Anastasiades hadsagreed to participate in the planned conference, expecting that it "will lead to a substantial resumption of talks with the aim of reaching a solution to the Cyprus problem within the agreed framework".This would mean reaching a solution based on UN Security Council resolutions and past agreements between the two sides for a federal Cyprus, with the two sides having equal political rights.Koushos said that Lute had informed Anastasiades that UN Scretary-General Antonio Guterres has planned to call an unofficial international conference in February.Meanwhile, Tatar said that after his meeting with the UN envoy that he opposed a federal settlement and advocated a solution supported by Turkey, under which Cyprus would be divided permanently into two separate sovereign states.He said such a solution was warranted by what he called realities on the ground.Guterres said in a report submitted to the Security Council on January 8 that in pursuit of his Good Offices Mission on Cyprus, he plans to call an unofficial international conference once all sides give their consent.He told Council members that the conference would decide the terms for the resumption of the long-stalled Cyprus reunification negotiations.Participants in the UN-led conference will be the two Cypriot communities and the three "guarantor powers" of Cyprus' independence Greece, Turkey and the UK.The last negotiations on Cyprus held in Switzerland after the two sides failed to agree on a Guterres blueprint for a settlement.( With inputs from IANS )Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
