Cyprus’s Kasoulides: Can Cypriots learn from Lebanon-Israel deal?

Cyprus has been divided along ethnic lines for decades, and caught in a geopolitical power struggle for most of the past 48 years.

This programme contacted the government of the self-declared Northern Cyprus to bring our audience the Turkish Cypriots’ voice. Our interview requests were declined, but our invitation to talk to Al Jazeera remains open.
