Turkey's Erdogan says it's time for two-state solution in Cyprus

Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan said on Monday it was time for a realistic proposal about a two-state solution on the divided island of Cyprus to be discussed, and added that the parameters of the current talks were not sustainable.Cyprus was split after a Turkish invasion in 1974 triggered by a brief Greek-inspired coup.The European Union admitted the island into the bloc in 2004, represented by the internationally recognised Greek Cypriot government in the south.
