[On hold] Repeal "Liberate The East Pacific"

Postby Ransium » Sat Aug 11, 2018 12:14 pm

The World Assembly,

Aware that the Security Council often does work that has a symbolic impact as much as a practical one;

Acknowledging, therefore, that the self-proclaimed symbolic nature of Security Council Resolution #247 'Liberate The East Pacific' is not grounds for repeal on its own;

However, convinced that even the symbolic impact of SC #247 is misplaced;

Noting that SC #247 deals almost exclusively with the actions of Queen Yuno and questioning the desirability of the precedent of the SC punishing a region for the actions which really are attributable to just a single nation;

Questioning the judgment of SC #247 being liberation when, given the arguments of the resolution, a condemnation would be a suitable way for the Security Council to express its displeasure with the region, if truly justified;

Knowing that the delegations of member nations have differing opinions about what liberation resolutions role should be, but convinced few feel it should be a substitute for a condemnation;

Wishing for the various precedents created by #SC 247 to be unequivocally rejected by this august body and now and into the future;

Hereby repeals World Assembly Security Council Resolution #247 'Liberate The East Pacific'

We don't need to replace. We should condemn TEP as well. And commend them while we're at it.

For the record, the Liberations of KAISERREICH and NE were passed immediately before Liberate TEP (which, unlike the other two, was supposed to be humourous). The sentiment I* can agree with, but not the resolution, and I will oppose this one if it does come to vote.

No. Liberate TEP is a work of art.

Thinking more about this, I shouldn’t have posted it when I did. My focus is on my GA proposal and after that I’ll probably want a break for awhile. I’m putting this on hold for now.

If you can get TEP's delegate support, that's all you'll need to pass this.
