Eide will talk with Cypriot President Nicos Anastasiades, who represents the Greek Cypriot community, and Turkish Cypriot leader Mustafa Akinci, to urge them to reflect seriously during a cooling off period and return to negotiations.

In remarks to the press in New York Wholesale NFL Jerseys , Eide said the Security Council is unanimously in support of the reunification of Cyprus.
"We, as United Nations, have only one set of parameters which leads to the reunification. This is something which is soundly based on many years of support of this procedure by the Security Council," Eide told a Turkish journalist who asked about Turkey's idea of preparing a new road map on Cyprus.

LONDON, Sept. 18 (Xinhua) -- A leading front bench opposition politician has called on the government to scrap proposals that would take away millions of dollars from Britain's anti-terrorism budget.
The call by Labour's shadow minister for security Nick Thomas-Symonds comes in the wake of the latest in a series of terror attacks that have hit London and the northern city of Manchester this year.
It also follows concerns raised by police representatives and security advisers about threats to Britain from extremists Cheap Football Jerseys , and a crisis over policing budgets. Labour has said cuts in police spending has made Britain more vulnerable.
Last week's bomb on the London Underground led to about 30 people injured, mostly victims trampled on in a stampede to escape. A number of the victims were hurt by the flash caused by a homemade device which failed to properly detonate. Had it fully exploded, it would have caused catastrophic injuries and almost certainly deaths in the crowded rush-hour train carriage.
Thomas-Symonds said he has unearthed documents which reveal plans by the Conservative government to reduce the budget of the Office for Security and Counter Terrorism (OSCT) by around 68 million U.S. dollars to just over 1.2 billion U.S. dollars in the next two years.
OSCT is the frontline agency tasked with tackling the growing problem of terrorism in Britain, liaising with Britain's top spy agencies MI5 and MI6 as well as police forces across the country.
The Labour MP described the proposed budget cuts as deeply concerning Cheap Nike NFL Jerseys , telling the Sunday Times newspaper that the top interior minister, Home Secretary Amber Rudd needed to urgently think again, warning that it would put "further strain on already overstretched police budgets."
To add to growing problems for British Prime Minister Theresa May's government, senior police officers and opposition politicians are up in arms over how a pay rise for police officers in Britain will be funded.
The government has signalled the beginning of the end of its austerity measures that resulted in employees in the public sector having their pay levels capped for seven years.
