Astoria's Embassy Programme

by **-Astoria** » Sun Jul 14, 2019 6:07 am

From the Desk of the Foreign Secretary
Sunday, July 14, 2019 [14-07-2019]

To the people of the world, and on behalf of Astoria, I extend my greetings to all of you! As a direct result of allowance by the two houses of Parliament and by the Prime Minister Robert Paisley, it has been decided to hereby open an embassy programme, so as to let any nation open diplomatic relations with us.
It has also come to our attention that Astoria possesses multiple embassies in a sizeable number of foreign nations, yet no nation has, as of writing, opened any embassy within Astoria itself, proving to be a one-sided situation diplomatically.
As such, in order to remedy these issues, we have opened our embassy programme, which is expected to go on until further notice. When you apply for an embassy and/or a consulate in Astoria, you are not just opening diplomatic relations with another nation; you are giving not only yourself, but also your citizens a chance to explore and enjoy a nation with one of the highest civil rights in the world, among other things.
However, when undertaking something like this, we have also instituted a set of rules, which you will find below.
On behalf of Astoria, we wish all fellow nations good luck, and hope that their applications are successful.
May the day break,

Neil Gamble
Foreign Affairs Secretary of Astoria

Rules regarding diplomatic immunity

The following is based off of the New Guide to Embassies and Consulates by Zinaire.

Capital Act of 1673

All nations that apply for an embassy in Astoria are mandated to adhere to the guidelines of the Capital Act of 1673, as detailed below:

This Act prohibits Astoria from trading or commencing diplomatic relations with nations that currently use capital punishment, and vice versa.
The use of the term 'nations that currently use capital punishment' applies to nations that have used capital punishment within the past 5 to 6 years.
However, there are exceptions to the rule: if no executions were carried out within a period of less than 5 to 6 years, there may be a chance that the prohibition of trading and diplomatic relations may be lifted - of course, this decision will be at the discretion of both the Prime Minister and the two houses of Parliament.
Nations that have been mentioned in this list are considered eligible for Astoria's trust, and as such are exempted from the guidelines of the Act, and are not allowed to fill in Section C of the application form.

Exceptions for non-CA-eligible countries [clagh]

It is possible for a country that does not fulfil any of the above to still establish diplomatic relations with Astoria; all that is needed is an application for an clagh, which may be granted upon the agreement of the following:

that any Astorian citizen or national found to have committed a crime in the applying country will be repatriated if said crime is, or can be a capital offence [& vice versa]; and
that Astoria will shoulder any resulting liabilities that follow from the above point.

Note: the agreement to a clagh will be legally binding to both parties.

Section E: Ambassadorial particulars

Lisa Ursula Schäfer (born 20 October 1972), Her Excellency Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary, is a Yohannesian barrister and diplomat who is the first and current Ambassador of Yohannes to Astoria. Her accreditation was registered by Parliament’s Advisory, Press and Private Committee on 11 April 2019.

Raised by her parents Petrus and Fiona in the Kingdom of Alexandria, Schäfer was educated at the state-integrated Adelaide of Löwenstein-Rosenberg Grammar School and attended the University of Yohannes to study Law. Upon her graduation in 1994, she was nominated to become one of many promising interns for the World Assembly Mission of the Nineteen Countries. Schäfer returned to Yohannes after two years to work at the alternative dispute resolution and litigation firm Köhler Schumacher Lawyers in Halsten. Coming into contact with then local Member of Parliament for the Altenmarkt electorate, her name was forwarded as a possible Legal Attaché for the Yohannesian embassy in the Grand Duchy of Van Luxemburg.

Following the 2018 presidential election victory of Marion Maréchal-Le Men and the GOP, Schäfer was nominated, in her position as a senior diplomat and provisional parliamentary adviser at the time, as a possible candidate for the Office of Ambassador in Astoria. In June 2019, her candidacy was finalised before Parliament’s International Diplomacy and Advisory Committee, and following her accreditation she became the first Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of the Realm of Yohannes to the Federal Republic of Astoria.

DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC OF DEATHFALL
Ministry of Foreign Affairs

_{To: Neil Gamble, Foreign Secretary of the Federal Republic of Astoria
Re: BODY
Encryption Level: Diplomatic

Dear Sir:
While we wish to open a diplomatic mission within Astoria, that currently is not possible because Deathfall is still considering if capital punishment is allowable or not. See People v. Brown, 2019CR294 (D. Baytown, 2019).
While the Deathfallian Judiciary considers this, I personally have asked the Realm of Yohannes to help us come up with a solution to have diplomatic relations with Astoria. One idea that has stuck out to me is a protecting power arrangement to exchange mission chiefs instead of formal Ambassadors until the decision of the Court of First Instance hands down their decision. I am expecting Mr. Brown to take the case to the High Court, our highest appellate Court, for immediate consideration. If possible, I will give you updates.
Would Astoria agree to the Realm of Yohannes to be our protecting power? Deathfall would have a interests section in the Embassy of Yohannes in Astoria, and Astoria would have a interests section in the Embassy of Yohannes in Deathfall. Please let me know.}

The Honorable Courtney Hall
Deathfallian Minister of Foreign Affairs
