Cyprus: Olguin in Nicosia for New Pentapartite - Wants Moves for Progress

Maria Angela Olguin, representative of the European Union, is in Nicosia to discuss the prospect of convening a new pentapartite conference on the Cyprus issue. Olguin's goal is to ascertain the positions of the parties involved regarding the need to restart negotiations, given the difficult global situation.
