    UN TRYING TO STEP UP PEACEFUL REUNIFICATION OF CYPRUS

    Yerevan (Yerkir) - United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon said
    on Monday leaders of divided Cyprus must make more effort if a peace
    deal is to be successfully concluded and that both had pledged to
    work on a deal as soon as possible.

    The United Nations has been trying inconclusively for years to end
    decades of conflict between Greek and Turkish Cypriots which has
    impeded Turkey's ambition to join the European Union, where Greek
    Cypriots represent Cyprus in the bloc.

    The United Nations acts as a facilitator in talks, and last week
    announced "significant progress" on some aspects of how the two
    sides could govern the island together in a future two-zone federation.
