Turkey to ask UN for respect of international law

According to the private Turkish NTV television station "Ankara wants the US administration to warn the American companies against taking part in the Greek Cypriot initiative to explore gas and oil deposits in the Mediterranean ... Turkey seeks to bring the issue to the attention of the UN Security Council, contacting members of the 15-nation body on the dispute." One cannot help wonder what Turkey plans to tell the UNSC members. One possibility certainly is "We demand the application of international law asap"!

Turkey's Kurds & Cyprus' tCypriots

As either unitary state or federation solutions are discussed as replacements to Cyprus' 1960 and Turkey's 1923 unworkable constitutions, should we abide by "if a right is a right too many for Turkey's Kurdish community (circa 23% of population) then that right is a right too many for Cyprus' tCypriot community too (circa 15%), and vice versa." Is the adoption of this fair logic the catalyst to securing just solutions for both UN countries.
