Would you also apply this solution to Russia-Ukraine? Create one state out of both?

Can Trump do the same to Greenland, declare it’s one country with the USA and have a democratic vote on it?

No platform that simply sides with the majority is a good place for reasoning about a conflict that pits 0.2% of the world’s population against 25%, and that includes UN resolutions.

A system that sides with the majority is not very good at protecting the voices of a minority.

Given the sheer global size of one group vs the other tiny ethnical minority it’s no surprise who wins in a count of opinion votes. That applies in the UN, and it applies here. And is ironically the reason the ethnic minority must have self determination.
