Overview

This book explores the little known root cause and nature of the Cyprus conflict;fills the huge gaps that have been, over time, airbrushed out of Cyprus’s postcolonial history; traces the UN led settlement process from 1964 to 2025, sharing Turkish Cypriot and Greek Cypriot positions at the talks; evaluates the performance of the UN in Cyprus; identifies the key reasons that have contributed to the failure of the talks; and sheds light on the needs of an equality-based, fair and sustainable settlement in the critical/strategic geography that Cyprus finds itself.
