| Abstract | ||
| The research aims to shed light on the efforts of President Jimmy Carter's administration to settle the Cypriot issue between 1977 – 1980, President Carter tried to find a final solution to the Cyprus issue. The US administration focused on the Cyprus issue because it is related to Greece and Turkey, both being US allies in NATO. The attention of the US administration began via supporting the agreement signed in early 1977 between Cypriot President Makarios and Turkish Cypriot leader "Raoof Denktash," the agreement included four principles to settle the Cyprus issue. In addition, president Carter sent a presidential delegate to contribute to reach a quick and fair settlement to the Cyprus issue. The US administration has supported all of the negotiations that have been made in Nicosia, Geneva, Vienna and New York, not to mention that it has supported the efforts of Waldheim, Secretary-General of the United Nations, who was also actively seeking to reach a settlement to the Cyprus issue to achieve peace and stability in the region. | ||
