Mr Christofias was speaking just hours after his election victory.
Decades of diplomatic efforts have failed to reunite the communities...
Mr Talat congratulated Mr Christofias on his election triumph and said "I believe that it won't be a surprise if we solve the problem by the end of 2008".
The BBC's Tabitha Morgan in Cyprus says significant issues that have scuppered all previous diplomatic initiatives remain to be tackled. These include the Turkish troop presence in the north of the island.

Mr Christofias is likely to find that any progress on reunification will be slow and difficult, our correspondent says.
Many sensitive issues remain unresolved, including the return of refugees, security and the constitution.
Is Talat conspiring to fool Christofias with this conjecture?
