NICOSIA, Feb 14 (NNN-XINHUA) – Cypriot President, Nikos Christodoulides, yesterday, asked Germany to effectively assist in resuming the peace talks for a solution to the Cyprus problem.
“We exchanged some opinions as to how Germany can facilitate a solution,” Christodoulides told journalists, during a tour with visiting German President, Frank-Walter Steinmeier.
Steinmeier started a three-day official visit to Cyprus on Monday, the first ever by a German head of state, since the two countries established diplomatic relations in 1960.
“Germany stands ready to support the UN process,” he said.
