The UN is trying to keep the two sides closer and reach an agreement for the benefit of all parties involved, SG Spokesman Stefan Dujarik said, adding that the situation we are in (in Cyprus) is not due to a lack of UN involvement, adding that the Secretary-General is not the only actor in the process.
Dujarik was responding to a question during a press conference at UN headquarters yesterday.
Asked about the terminology which is often used by the SG in his reports and the absence of terminology such as Turkish invasion, Turkish occupation, Turkish violations but instead his use of terms that equate the two sides, the Spokesman said that the SG tries to reflect in his reports the reality as we see it, adding that the reports speak for themselves whether it is a report on Cyprus or anywhere else, clarifying that the UN has always been very clear about the urgency of the need for both sides in Cyprus to respect and abide by UN and Security Council resolutions.
