Kyrianou yesterday called for patience and calm as negotiations to end the 40-year division of the island begin.Asked to comment on statements by Turkish Cypriot leader Dervis Eroglu regarding the continued presence of settlers and the Turkish army post-solution, Kyprianou said one should expect Eroglu to make such comments and called for calm.“We need to keep calm and be patient,” he said.The opposition leader called on President Nicos Anastasiades to keep the parties fully briefed on the latest developments at the negotiating table so that the Greek Cypriot leadership can work based on consensus. Unity on the domestic front was hugely important, he added.Eroglu was quoted in the Turkish Cypriot press saying Turkish settlers who came to live in Cyprus post-1974 invasion would not be sent back to Turkey if agreement is reached on a reunited federal republic. He likened the Greek Cypriot demands to remove the Turkish army from the island and abolish Turkey’s guarantee to “pursuing a dream”.
