Our collective political behaviour is self-defeating to say the least. Instead of courageously stating what would be a fair and functional solution, our politicos try to convince us of the right level of submission to illogical, unhistorical, apartheid demands of our enemies, namely Britain and "Turkey". A paradigm shift is needed.
Regardless what you think of President Makarios, his visionary 1963 ideas will be the basis of RoC's first major constitutional upgrade. 1963, minus ethnic based or arbitrary geographical divisions, minus preferential treatment for any community, minus rights to foreign nations. It is the right way.
It is also the only way to safegurad the presence of the Turkish Cypriot minority community in Cyprus.

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.
