Speaking to reporters after the meeting on Wednesday, Fisher said she had “a very constructive meeting” with the Turkish Cypriot leader, noting that this was their first discussion. She said she expressed the continued commitment of the USA to supporting the resumption of the talks based on Security Council resolutions, but also its commitment to supporting a bizonal, bicommunal federation with political equality for all Cypriots.
