President Demetris Christofias and Turkish Cypriot leader Mehmet Ali

leaders focused their discussions on governance and power-sharing.
Asked if there have been any convergences at the meeting, Downer said
that statements will be made at the end of the process, at an
appropriate time, in an appropriate way, which will explain what is
being happening.
On the progress made during the six days of intensive talks, he said:
Well, the proof of that pudding will be, as they say, in the eating. By
that I mean there will be statements made at the end of this process,
which has been extended until Friday. There will be statements made at
the end of this process at an appropriate time, in an appropriate way,
which will explain what has been happening.

leaders are engaged in.
