President of the Republic Demetris Christofias and Turkish Cypriot
leader Dervis Eroglu have begun their meeting in the UN buffer zone in
Nicosia, in the context of UN-led talks to solve the Cyprus problem.
Speaking after their previous meeting on December 1, the UN Secretary
General`s Special Adviser on Cyprus Alexander Downer said the leaders
of the two communities concentrated their discussion on governance and
power sharing with a particular, but not exclusive, focus on external
