Espen Barth Eide said (about Antonio Guterres): “We were approaching 2:30 at night [Swiss time]. It was a very long dinner. He [Guterres] said that after what he heard during this dinner he didn’t see any prospect in continuing the conference… given the mood that had developed. He asked the participants if they agreed and they did agree. It was a very special dinner. What I can tell you is that everybody in the room understood that this wasn’t going anywhere. The deterioration of mutual trust was obvious… The climate, the tone, the way people spoke about each other and to each other didn’t sound like people that were about to unify their homeland,”

Espen Barth Eide said: “If I say it’s a collective failure I must say that includes everybody who was there. If something fails, everyone should think what should I have done to make it better, rather than running and say everybody else made the mistakes. I must say I felt we were very well prepared,” “We had prepared this event for several months. If someone was unprepared, maybe it’s the people who were in charge, not the people that were just helping them”

Espen Barth Eide said: “This is not exactly what happened. Some of what I have read that purportedly refers to that dinner is simply wrong. So let me say this: In these highly sensitive issues the SG, myself and members of my team were in many bilateral meetings, testing out the frontiers of people’s views, including of course Turkey in order to see if a final package was available that we thought the others will accept. So, what the Secretary-General said in this dinner was based on these conversations and it wasn’t wrong,”

Espen Barth Eide said: “I was sometimes criticised about being too optimistic in Cyprus. Maybe I was! Now I haven’t been optimistic for half a year – to be frank – and you will not find a single very optimistic statement from me in 2017,” “Maybe it was because we were losing momentum. These processes have their time, if time is not well spent, it might be lost,”
