As a WA state that officially defies the resolution by conducting slavery, we strongly oppose their entrance into the TRC.


I understand your ethical concern on the matter but our organization is a neutral organization, with a single purpose of humanitarian aid. Did you know that from 1938-1945 a number of Nazi German Police personnel were in control of INTERPOL? Does it really matter if Ryccia conducts slavery when our organization's purpose is to provide politically neutral aid on the battle field and to supply humanitarian assistance?

I would like to welcome our first Extra-Species member of the NSRC, Hundermenschen. With their addition our organization makes another leap towards becoming a truly Transversal and Neutral force.

It is not so much that they allow slavery, but more that they are a WA member and yet openly defies the resolution. Various parties have threatened WA condemnation, but still they are in defiance. For this, we are concerned over both their attitude towards the global community and the source of their slaves, which would cause skepticism over our organization's aims. Hence, until these issues have been resolved, we have no choice but to continue to veto their application.

Our nation shall take up the responsibility, sending in aid, volunteers and military police to maintain law and order within the ruins. It is well known of the lawlessness that often follows a major natural disaster, and this time we would send in military police on our own accord.

It appears I am indeed, lacking in knowledge on these matters. Could you elaborate on such issues as their source, or at least provide links to the information. I saw nothing concerning slavery with in the section "Laws of Ryccia" found in their factbook entries. Admittingly, it was the only section I checked out having noticed your complaint.

I see what you mean now, if they can't abide by the obligations of WA Membership, how can they be expect to uphold the responsibility of NSRC membership. Even I know the deference in selling the labor of a person as opposed to selling the person of the labor. I'll have to give this more consideration then before.

To whom it may concern,

The Federation of Hesse Kassel has made some considerations about joining the NSRC. Recently we have sent aid to a 9.8 in Asasia to which our citizens highly praise. We would like to join the NSRC to fulfill a larger part in the world and have a sense of pride along with it.

Ryccia has refused membership.

Me: You have shown interest in NSRC membership and are currently being given consideration. Ryccia would have by now already been accepted had it not been for in group objection. Objection has come about on the bases that, evidence has surfaced that Ryccia practices slave trafficking. This in it's self is no reason to be denied NSRC membership. The Concern however arises on the bases that WA Resolution #23 forbids slave trafficking, as a member of the WA you are obliged to uphold it's laws and resolutions. As the Director I need assurance that you will uphold NSRC standards if I am to quite these complaints to allow the doors of unhindered membership to lay open.

A note for future reference: Resolution #23 excludes prison labour or community service given as sentence in the course of a fair trial from it's deffenition of forced labor how ever it does state: "Forcing or inducing the transfer of any person against their freely given will, or assisting or financing such actions, through similar forms of coercion, for the purposes of exploitation, such as slavery or forced labour, or situations approximating to such, sexual exploitation, or unauthorised medical procedures, shall be considered 'human trafficking' and immediately prohibited in all nations."

In the future one might instead of selling the prisoners, lend out their labor. For example, James Oewls is sentenced to 12 years of state labor. Instead of selling James, transfer his service to an other state. Lending it to the foreign government for a rental fee until his term of service is over. Doing so should avoid another such dispute.

Ryccia's Immediate Response: Well, I want to help other nations, but if it is like that, is because in Ryccia, the belief is this: Criminals MUST pay. And with with hard labor and slavery they must pay. We torture them to reveal criminal secrets, and if needed to be sold, torture them to be so weak to be materials. Send this message to the NSRC and this too: CRIMINALS DON'T DESERVE RIGHTS.

Please, send this to the whole NSRC Council, if there is one.

I have informed Ryccia that I sincerely was trying to secure his membership.

I had stated their was an in group objection, I never clarified the percentage of the group. I even stated that the practice of slavery it's self would not disqualify your from membership. All that needs to be done is to show Romberg that you are trustworthy, that you can uphold to your obligations.

I agree with Venaleria, through out my NS and Nations involvement certain issues were naturally seen as weapons free. Like peace talks for example, I believe if you truly seek peace you should leave the war behind you. I often think back to the scene, most should remember, from Disney's Atlantis in which the King points out that they have brought weapons with them. It's a trust issue. Also, there's something almost Heroic about going into battle unarmed with the sole purpose of aiding the wounded. One becomes like an Angel, who walks the streets of Hell, giving hope to the fallen.

The President can be assured that NSRC shall do it's best to aid the Wagondian people. It is unfortunate this happened during a bid for peace.
