Anastasiades-Akinci meeting canceled

A meeting between Cyprus President Nicos Anastasiades and Turkish Cypriot leader Mustafa Akinci scheduled for Thursday will not take place, government spokesman Nicos Christodoulides has said.

In a tweet Wednesday, Christodoulides said: “Unfortunately the UN have just informed us that due to the Turkish Cypriot leader’s refusal to attend, the meeting will not take place.”
