土耳其共和国北塞浦路斯（TRNC）外长塔辛·埃尔图鲁卢在纽约会见了伊斯兰合作组织（OIC）秘书长伊斯梅尔·维尔德·谢赫·艾哈迈德，外交部周六表示。
Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus (TRNC) Foreign Minister Tahsin Ertugruloglu met with Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) Secretary-General Ismail Vild es-Sheikh Ahmed in New York, the Foreign Ministry said on Saturday.
根据TRNC外交部声明，埃尔图鲁卢在第81届联合国大会期间，在纽约的土耳其之家会见了艾哈迈德。
Ertugruloglu met Ahmed at the Turkish House in New York on the sidelines of the 81st UN General Assembly, according to the TRNC Foreign Ministry statement.
他祝贺艾哈迈德最近就任秘书长，并表示希望双方继续保持密切接触与合作。
He congratulated Ahmed on recently assuming office as secretary-general and expressed hope that close engagement and cooperation would continue.
埃尔图鲁卢指出，作为OIC观察员成员的TRNC积极参与该组织框架下的高级别会议和活动，并曾举办过各类活动，表示已准备好在未来一段时间内再次举办OIC活动。
Noting that the TRNC, which has observer member status at the OIC, actively participates in high-level meetings and events held under the organization's umbrella and has hosted various events in the past, Ertugruloglu said it is ready to host an OIC event again in the coming period.
他说，发展与OIC秘书处及成员国的关系是其优先目标之一，强调OIC支持对于“克服强加给土耳其塞浦路斯人民的孤立”至关重要。
He said developing relations with the OIC Secretariat and the organization's member states is among their priority objectives, highlighting the importance of OIC support in "overcoming the isolation imposed on the Turkish Cypriot people." During the meeting, Ertugruloglu briefed Ahmed on the historical process of the Cyprus issue and also outlined the Cyprus policy pursued jointly with Türkiye.

Cyprus has been mired in a decades-long dispute between Greek Cypriots and Turkish Cypriots despite a series of diplomatic efforts by the UN to achieve a comprehensive settlement.

It has seen an on-and-off peace process in recent years, including a failed 2017 initiative in Switzerland under the auspices of guarantor countries Türkiye, Greece, and the UK.
