Τhe leaders of the two communities on the island are among the guests, according to the same information, as well as members of the diplomatic community and civil society.

Cyprus has been divided since the 1974 illegal Turkish invasion. Numerous peace talks under the UN aegis with the aim to reunite the island under a federal roof failed to yield results. The latest round of talks took place in the summer of 2017 in the Swiss resort of Crans-Montana.
