The feeling in Surinam seems to be that Guyana is trying to separate
the maritime boundary dispute from that in the Courantyne river
(Thalweg vs. left bank border) and the New River Triangle dispute.
Thats why Guyana is adressing the ITLOS.

If Surinam succeeds in maintaining that all boundary disputes are
connected, then ITLOS wouldn't be the way to solve them. A Surinamese
lawyer proposes in the Surinam newspaper De Ware Tijd that Surinam
should take the disputes to the International Court of Justice in the
Hague instead ( http://tinyurl.com/2cz2w ; in Dutch). In that case,
BRGYSR is another tripoint that would enter this story.
