President Ersin Tatar is set to meet Greek Cypriot leader Nikos Christodoulides again ahead of the arrival of United Nations Under-Secretary-General for Peacebuilding Rosemary DiCarlo next month, it was announced on Thursday.

Tatar will be meeting with the UN special representative Colin Stewart later this afternoon to set a date for the next leaders’ meeting.

The Turkish Cypriot side is expected to suggest that the meeting take place on next Friday, February 7.

The pair is expected to once again discuss the opening of new crossing points between the island’s two sides, as well as confidence-building measures.

DiCarlo’s visit is set to come ahead of a planned “enlarged meeting” on the Cyprus problem which will involve Cyprus’ three guarantor powers, Greece, Türkiye, and the United Kingdom, as well as the UN, and will likely take place in March.

DiCarlo is then set to hold separate meetings with Tatar and Christodoulides on February 10, before travelling to both Ankara and Athens to meet members of the Turkish and Greek governments.
