| The United Nations Secretary General Ban ki-Moon’s latest report to the UN Security Council recommending the extension of the UN peacekeeping force in Cyprus’ mandate for another six months has been issued. The UN Secretary General Ban Ki Moon has recommended that the mandate of UNFICYP be extended until June 15, 2012.
In his report, the UN Chief says, “the leaders have intensified their exchanges, meeting a total of 19 times, and focused on core issues”, adding that “during that period, considerable advances were made in the areas of economy, EU matters and internal aspects of security, while much less progress was made on property, territory and citizenship matters”. |

| Commenting on the Greentree meeting, Ban said “some encouraging progress was made, but much remains to be done to reach full convergence on them.”
Ban also refers to an increase in tension in the region due to the Greek Cypriot Side’s exploratory drilling activities for hydrocarbons off the southern coast of the island and said ‘this was strongly opposed by the Cyprus Turkish Side and Turkey, who considered that such actions prejudged the rights of the Cyprus Turkish People in the exploitation of natural resources on and around the island’.

| No REAL change then.
Don't hold your breath with the luddite Archbishop in the south calling the shots over there!

| We still wait for them to agree on any of the real issues, such as territory, property, citizenship and split of power.
Until they agree on these, all the rest does not take as an inch forward to any settlement. |
