The Turkish Cypriot leader, Erhurman, stated that the biggest obstacle to a solution in Cyprus is the Greek Cypriot side's refusal to accept political equality. He reiterated that he will not participate in negotiations without an agreement on methodology, which must include political equality. His statement sparked reactions and led him to clarifications through a post on social media, where he emphasized that he wants negotiations for a real solution, not just for the sake of negotiations.
