Abstract
This text is based on research aiming to record the period of negotiations at Mont Pèlerin, Switzerland between
the Greek Cypriot and Turkish Cypriot community in November 2016. Articles from three newspapers (Alithia,
Politis and Haravgi) were studied, with an emphasis on political coverage regarding the negotiations. The choice
of newspapers was based on the fact that they have been around for many decades, they have a different
ideological orientation and they have contributed to the modern history of Cyprus. Moreover, they all have a full
electronic archive of their issues which makes it easy to access and study the articles.The overarching aim is to
understand the efforts to solve the Cyprus problem through the recent negotiations in Switzerland and to
examine the positions of the Cypriot press regarding this thorny and crucial issue over which the Republic of
Cyprus has been agonising for more than forty years.
