President Nikos Christodoulides has pushed forward with his policy of seeking an EU appointed official to get involved with the Cyprus problem, the government spokesman said on Friday with speculation as to who may be suitable for such a position.
Christodoulides met German Chancellor Olaf Scholz on Thursday with government spokesman Constantinos Letymbiotis explaining that both Cyprus and Germany made suggestions as to who could take over the EU post to the island.
Certain quarters speculating on the issue pointed towards Former Chancellor Angela Merkel as being a potential candidate.
Letymbiotis stressed that the potential person to take on the role must be able to present Turkey with the necessary incentives to persuade Ankara to return to the negotiating table.
The spokesman also stated that Scholz was impressed with Christodoulides’ readiness and determination to get negotiations back on track.
Letymbiotis concluded by saying that Christodoulides will continue his push for an EU appointee on June 13 when he will make the case before the European parliament in Strasbourg.
