We endorse the Secretary-General's view that prospects for a settlement remain alive, as reaffirmed in his April report. We echo his calls for the leaders to engage constructively, creatively and with the necessary sense of urgency. We also welcome the UN Security Council's recent call for the two sides to agree terms of reference as a basis for meaningful result-orientated negotiations.</p> answering member printed Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon question first answered 20/05/2019 13:19:14 answering member 4210 label Biography information for Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 02/07/2019 answer text <p>The UK is a strong supporter of a comprehensive, just and lasting settlement of the Cyprus issue, based on the internationally accepted model of a bi-zonal, bi-communal federation. We therefore support consultations on settlement under the Secretary General's auspices through dialogue with the UN and regular engagement with leaders from all parties. We encourage all sides to engage constructively and demonstrate genuine commitment to making progress. Ultimately, the question of Morphou is a matter for the two Leaders and the communities they represent to address as part of a comprehensive settlement. It is not for the UK to seek to become a party to the discussions beyond our obligations as a guarantor power, however we continue to support the two Leaders' attempts to achieve progress.</p> answering member constituency Rutland and Melton answering member printed Sir Alan Duncan question first answered 02/07/2019 13:09:28 answering member 343 label Biography information for Sir Alan Duncan
