U.N.leader to name representative for Cyprus peace discussions as talks start again.

The U.N. Secretary-General had a meeting with leaders from both sides of Cyprus. He wants to help them find a way to make a lasting peace agreement.

Cyprus was divided many years ago. Turkey invaded the north part of the island and now only they say it is a separate country.

The whole island of Cyprus joined the European Union, but only the south part gets the benefits. This is because the south part is recognized as the real government by most of the world.

The leaders talked about some small steps they could take to build trust. These include things like sharing energy resources, protecting the environment, and clearing landmines.

The two sides still have very different ideas about what a peace deal should look like. They will keep talking and try to find a solution that works for everyone.
