Cyprus: United States of Cyprus?

President Nicos Anastasiades expressed hope that there would be a solution to the Cypriot divide and the island’s name could be ‘United States of Cyprus’. In an interview with a Turkish newspaper he said that both he and his Turkish Cypriot counterpart had the same vision on solving their problems, and this was the first time there was so much hope that this could be done. For the first time in the island’s Greek/Turkish history, both leaders have the same vision. They want to reach an agreement taking into account their mutual concerns. Please continue to pray that negotiations continue to be held in a positive atmosphere over the most difficult matters of property and territory. Some matters have been agreed on while others have not.
