In an effort to pave the way for an informal expanded meeting for a Cyprus settlement, UN undersecretary-general for political and peacebuilding affairs Rosemary DiCarlo is expected to visit Cyprus, Greece and Turkey in mid-February.

UN sources said DiCarlo was planning to meet with high-ranking officials, ahead of the informal expanded meeting scheduled to take place in March in Switzerland, the Cyprus News Agency reported.

The exact dates of DiCarlo’s visits have not been finalised yet.
