Theresa May has repeated her call for “flexibility by all sides” involved in the ongoing Conference on Cyprus in a telephone conversation she had this morning with her Greek counterpart Alexis Tsipras.
A Downing Street spokesperson said: “The Prime Minister praised the constructive role that both parties have played to reach this point and reiterated that there is a major opportunity to be seized.
“She added that any agreement requires all sides to show leadership and flexibility and that the UK will do it all it can to support a settlement.”
Prime Minister May had also spoken with President Recep Tayyip Erdogan of Turkey on Monday. She had noted that “we now have a unique opportunity to reach a settlement” and that in order to reach a final outcome “there will have to be flexibility on all sides.”
