Turkish Cypriot leader Tufan Erhürman says he is attending today's meeting between the two leaders under the auspices of the UN Secretary-General's Personal Envoy with a package of bridging proposals and a new initiative that he believes could significantly alter the course of the process.
In a post on social media ahead of the trilateral meeting in the buffer zone, Erhürman said his objective is to secure positive results from today's talks.
"For this purpose, we have prepared a package consisting of bridging proposals on the issues discussed so far, which do not include only our own demands but also take into account the positions of the Greek Cypriot side on these issues," he wrote.
Erhürman added that he had already informed María Ángela Holguín of his intention to prepare such a package, regardless of its contents.
New proposal
The Turkish Cypriot leader also revealed that he intends to table an additional proposal.
"In addition to this, we will have a new proposal that has the potential and significance to completely change the dynamics surrounding the process and influence approaches," he said.
He reiterated that his goal is for the meeting to produce concrete outcomes.
"Our aim is to ensure that this meeting delivers positive results and opens the way for the next steps."
Erhürman said he will provide a detailed briefing after the meeting.
