Cyprus

The statehood declaration did not end the negotiation
process.
In August 1984 the two sides met UN Secretary General
Pérez de
Cuéllar in Vienna. They agreed to proximity talks, that
its, talks
in which the portier do not meet directly, but communicate
through
an intermediary. These talks began in New York in
September. After
three months, Pérez de Cuéllar determined that the
differences
between the two sides had narrowed enough to allow for a
direct
summit between the two leaders. That meeting took place in
New York
on January 17, 1985.
The 1985 summit was in some ways a watershed in Cypriot
settlement efforts, because it altered, at least
temporarily,
external observers' perceptions of the sources of the
stalemate,
and because it represented the beginning of a phase of
settlement
efforts. But that phase would come to an end in early
1990.
