Annan

Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan appears to have told his European counterparts about his country's tough stance on the Cyprus problem during last week's informal meeting of EU foreign ministers in Brussels.

Fidan argued that "any solution that the Greek Cypriots do not accept is not accepted."

Endy Zemenides, the executive director of the Hellenic American Leadership Council, joins Thanos Davelis to break down why the rejection of the Annan plan 20 years ago needs to be revisited, and its historic significance reconsidered.

Turkish Cypriot leader, Ersin Tatar, is steadfast in his position regarding a two-state "solution" in Cyprus. As he repeated in his interview with Turkish newspaper Cumhuriyet, in his opinion the only guarantor of the Turkish Cypriots is Turkey.
