The international community has made continuous efforts to resolve the problem of Cyprus ever since it first erupted after independence. The earliest major effort at mediation was rejected in 1965 by the parties, and UN-sponsored intercommunal talks continued intermittently up till the Turkish invasion. Thereafter a succession of high-level talks and initiatives failed to break the deadlock. The author builds up an authoritative picture of how the Cyprus problem grew out of the independence settlement and has developed since. He analyses each stage : how the successive discussions were conducted, what were the reactions to them of the Greek and Turkish Cypriot leadership, and how external actors were involved : Britain, Greece, Turkey, the United States and, before its demise, the Soviet Union.
