MessageMuch appreciated.

Now, as the AAT is threatening to oppose to UNC and specifically to the peacekeeping forces of Kafuristan, you, as members of the organization must gather and prepare your army for a possible situation.

The UNC administration is not requesting you to obligatory participate in the conflict, but inform you of the incident. Please, for more information, advise the relative media broadcasting stations.

However, the military forces of this nation will not attack any other nation without reason and approval by the majority of the Folkstmma. Therefore I see no reason to prepare the army at the present time.

->The Security Council navigates the united army during crisis.
->After approval, nations are prohibited from requesting their armies back, until termination of the Military Protocol.

ToDebating the Announcements Room (UNC)
MessageI have a few issues I suppose I'll point out.

"->All member nations shall accept and respect the UNC flag and emblem."
I'd like this bit explained further as the people of Sekowo have the right to burn any flag, be that national or supranational and this would seem to prohibit that.

"->The UNC organization does not intervene in internal conflicts within member nations, unless clearly authorized by the Head of State."
This section we greatly dislike, we think any member nation should be allowed to intervene to protect the people's freedom, regardless of the idiocentric ideas of sovereignty.


Those are my concerns so far.

ToDebating the Announcements Room (UNC)
MessageIt is going to become a binding treaty of the organization.
Furthermore, DSP, I shall remove the first paragraph you pointed out, however, I'd like to clearly define the second.
The UNC, as an organization, would not intervene in an internal conflict, unless authorized by the Head of State. Individual member nations could always ask other member nations to just assist them. Besides, Lourenne, Sekowo and Kafuristan are close allies. I believe requesting for assistance surrounds all those nations, therefore binding the UNC, as an alliance body.

Other than that? Would you ratify it?

Date06:12:56, April 11, 2008 CET
FromConservative Party
ToDebating the Announcements Room (UNC)
MessageI feel this proposal under internal affairs:

->Citizen IDs of member nations shall be marked with the UNC logo and may be used for legal, direct transportation between member nations.

would violate the sovereignty of the nations. CP believes that a document with the Kafuristan logo will suffice in understanding from which alliance you are from. Only UNC documents and IDs should have the UNC logo on it. e.g. UNC diplomats would have a special ID page. Otherwise, the UNC would have to respect the sovereignty and the value of the emblem of the member nation.

OOC: my girlfriend has a (real) UN diplomat paper glued into her passport because her father is a (real) UN Director - it's really cool

The CP also does not feel very strongly to the Military Protocol. We feel it is flawed in numerous ways.

1. ->The Security Council navigates the united army during crisis.

This just makes little sense. A military leader should be in charge of the united army. Politicians are ill-equipped in their skill set to manage military matters properly.

2. ->After approval, nations are prohibited from requesting their armies back, until termination of the Military Protocol.

With no time frame specified or guaranteed, this is a strong enough flaw that would make us oppose adoption of the treaty. Nations should have the right to withdraw their troops when necessary.


Under Foreign Policy, we don't like the wording "any violation". Either specify what kind of violations count. We are not going to send the armies across the globe if an issue can be resolved diplomatically. Be more specific. Like treathening of arms against a member nation would be good.

->Any violations immediately enact the Military Protocol.



In terms of Membership, if this is going to be a treaty, which requires ratification of the majority, why do you have this rule? Or is this treaty in the form of a party organization?

->Nations are allowed to accept full membership in the UNC after they have ratified the UNC Accord and promoted the membership of at least 5 parties.

At the present time, there are only 4 active Sekowan parties who are member of UNC. Does that mean Sekowo would be excluded?



Suggestions

How about something about a call to remove all ambassadors from a hostile nation or an embargo against hostile nations? It can be one of the steps before military action.

MessageLUP, there is still the problem of active/inactive parties to make the 5. I think it should be active parties only. Why include inactive parties? They might never come back and the count will "always" be over 5 after 5 member parties go inactive. So, say 5 inactive parties are left, one new party may join and elect a member to the Security Council when in reality, there is only 1 party involved, not representative.

OOC: I personally don't like the UN either but I think we can give UNC a try. We can always propose changes or leave the organization if we wish. Especially with those jerks in Beiteynu creating trouble.

Random fact: Players who consent to a particular role-play by acknowledging it in their own role-play cannot then disown it or withdraw their consent from it. For example, if player A role-plays the assassination of player B's character, and player B then acknowledges the assassination in a news post, but then backtracks and insists the assassination did not happen, then he will be required under the rules to accept the validity of the assassination role-play.
