TL;DR Summary

Turkey's foreign minister has accused the United Nations of losing its neutrality in Cyprus after the Security Council criticized construction work by Turkish Cypriots in the buffer zone and condemned their assault on U.N. peacekeepers. The Security Council described the road construction as a violation of the status quo, but Turkey argues that Greek Cypriots have been allowed to proceed with similar projects. The Turkish Foreign Ministry rejected the council's position, claiming it is divorced from the realities on the ground. The U.N. Secretary-General condemned the assault on peacekeepers, while Cyprus welcomed the Security Council's statement as a response to the Turkish Cypriot actions.
