CSN Assembly (Democritus Only RP)

[Puertollano]

"The Coalition must have been responsible for this disaster, while we may not know which exact member-state committed it, we will know in the future."

"But do you support the deployment of medical assistance, and other aid? What about a humanitarian evacuation corridor?"

"Of course, we just wanted to remind you it was your fault."

[Virrgo]

"The Soviet Union supports this proposal. We further propose an investigation to be made into the origins of these attacks, to our knowledge none of the three native forces have capabilities to launch an attack of this magnitude. It is imperative we find and place on trial those responsible."

[New Metropolitan France]

"But do you support the deployment of medical assistance, and other aid? What about a humanitarian evacuation corridor?"

"Of course, we just wanted to remind you it was your fault."

"To clarify whether the insinuation was against my government's armed forces under the CSN banner, no French Confederation aircraft were in the air at the time of the incident; they were being fueled for combat duties alongside the Soviets on the Carrier Fleet. There is clear evidence of that. I therefore take it to assume you mean more in line with your first comment that it was somebody within the Coalition, other than the Sixth Republic, to which we agree."

[Grandes Terres]

“An international conglomerate of idependent investigators and scientists should be assembled and given access to Sapele by the HNA to sample the area that was initially infected by this biological weapon to identify it and attempt to trace it.”

[Highlock]

In response to the presence of biological warfare in Nigeria,
Senior Diplomacy Advisor Hercule Van Hout addresses the Council of Sovereign Nations,

First and foremost, the Republic of Highlock sincerely thanks the honourable New Metropolitan France for its distressing discovery in the development of the Nigerian Civil War. The Republic of Highlock has and will continue to seriously condemn the usage or manipulation of biological weaponry in any situation or context, and consequently expresses its alarm and utmost concern regarding the escalating tension in the Nigerian nation and the alleged presence of biological warfare.

Not only does this type of weaponry severely harm and impede any natural process, would it be fauna or flora, it also has devastating effects on humans, their health and their well-being as well as their civilization's. We know from past experience that using biochemistry in the objective of destruction or terror is a highly voluptuous and revolting affair; the indiscriminate and brutal odious murder of thousands upon thousands of innocent citizens simply violates the very principles most nations on Earth were founded on, qualities of freedom, peace, the pursuit of a prosperous livelihood being the prime examples. The Nigerian people are now in the most dangerous state that has been observed over the course of this conflict, facing the risks of nationwide or international devastation. The Republic of Highlock severely condemns the HNA and any of its affiliates supporting this murderous campaign; the lives of millions of citizens are in most dangerous hands.

The Republic of Highlock, therefore, calls all members of this Council to take action to both save the Nigerian populous and incapacitate any efforts at such devastating weaponry. We call for the establishment of a series of rescue corridors placed in order to help evacuate all citizens deemed within the sphere of influence of any dangerous military faction in Nigeria. Parallel to this rescue effort, we also call all nations to help in establishing a means of dialogue and diplomacy between the different factions so as to perhaps establish a treaty or a heavily protected demilitarized zone wherein the populous can be relocated with apt facilities, such as hospitals, fire stations, incarceration facilities, employment opportunities and the like, all whilst protecting the borders of Nigeria to stop any entrance or exit into the country unless authorized by the CSN Forcados Checkpoint. These containment efforts ensure that the dangerous and violent Nigerian factions are devoid of outside help and assistance, either from foreign nations or corporations. This is, of course, one proposition amongst many however the importance lies in the protection of the Nigerian citizens and the eventual repair and peace in Nigeria.

In response to the CSN Violation Fine proposition,
Ambassador Charles Rademaker

Since the uncovering of Sharp End International's involvement in the Second Nigerian Civil War, the Republic of Highlock, as well as many honourable Councilmembers, have called for further investigation into this matter, concerned that corporate matters in this political conflict might further corrupt this tragic Civil War and perhaps sickeningly profit off of the demise of millions of lives. We, again, present our thanks to the honourable New Metropolitan France for its initiative in bringing these corrupting institutions to justice.

In regards to this voting, the Republic of Highlock votes;
In favour of this CSN Fine to the attention of Sharp End International.

"Ms.Dinesen is currently absent. I will take here place in addressing the CSN. I am Harold Capolco.

It reads that Australia will agree to this proposal if it will be revised in this manner:

1. War criminals face trial in a CSN court. This includes those responsible for initiating the violent terror activities against the legitimate leftist government starting the first Civil War, those who have committed war crimes such as those perpetrated against the Italian citizen,and those chemical/biological attacks on the Nigerian people.

2. The newly independent state and its groups/companies/citizens would be forever banned from possessing/operating any form of WMD, and also banned from housing WMDs owned/controlled/administered by foreign nations/companies/citizens/groups.

Australia says NO due to this accusation not having been properly confirmed other than speculation. If the corporation is to be fined, then a proper investigation trial should be made since every accused has the right to due process.

"On the contrary, delegate, Sharp End has not only confessed their actions publicly but even disclosed the amount they were paid for the contract. Perhaps your government should be more careful about the kind of companies you do business with."

In the main debating room

"We thank the Highlock Republic for their support on these motions, and strongly agree with their proposals regarding the establishment of a safe zone with capable facilities. We ask the Orbanis CSN delegation whether they believe any location near Forcados is suitable?"

In the peace terms room

"The French Confederation supports the addition of the term suggested by Bendicion in regards to self-defense ("unless otherwise attacked first."). However, we reject the addition of the chemical/biological attack clause as it is simply not relevant at all to the socialists. This is a peace deal between the CSN and the Socialists - as such the biological attack should be investigated thoroughly, we agree, but not as part of an agreement with a party who has no relevance to it. If the Bendicion delegation wishes to suggest such war criminal investigation in the main CSN debating chamber for once the perpetrators are identified you have our full support however. Finally, we would state our preference that CSN employees be used to observe the election, rather than representatives from the member states due to conflict of interest."

[Puertollano]

"We support the movement by the government of Australia. There must be an investigation into the biological attacks, even though TeleSur has already confirmed Italy to be the perpetrator, as it relates to peace with the CSN. Puertollano does not support, however, the clause that bans WMDs, we believe this is a breach of sovereignty unless the Nigerian Socialist state approves. Furthermore, we push for reformation of the CSN; a security council for major bills must be established to prevent it to be used as a puppet.

As such, the CSN is under the control of France and her dominions, hence we cannot trust the CSN to properly monitor the election process."

[Lendenburgh]

Gjerde speaks up, over the discourse between the Australian and the French delegate, "The Nordic Federation supports both of the original French proposals"

He then turns to the delegate from Puertollano, "The move to ban Weapons of Mass destruction would only save lives, and it is a decision that would be imposed on both sides of this conflict. Nigeria has proven to be an unstable area, and if a third civil war were to break out with nuclear or chemical weapons in play, it would only lead to more death and destruction. It is a sensible and equitable ban. As for your implication that sovereign members of this council are nothing but puppets to the French will, that is a seriously insulting thing to say. Just because your coalition is not on the winning side of these debates does not mean the system is not fair, and it certainly does not mean the French are controlling this international governing body."

“It is wrong to make such allegations within the CSN against a nation merely due to the writings of a newspaper.”

“An investigation within the Italian government is currently ongoing and until irrelfutable evidence from the Italian government itself is presented to the CSN we request that the Puertollanoan representative redacts it’s undiplomatic comments until the investigation has concluded.”

"A CSN war crimes investigation is to be launched on the biological weapons attack conducted by Italy. The Bolivarian Republic of Puertollano is calling for an immediate investigation. TeleSur has proved the guilt of the Italian Government, now we only need the CSN to approve this. The recordings, flight-paths, and other evidence puts it beyond reasonable doubt that Italy was behind the massacre."

"Let's think about what you've said for a moment: you trust Italy, Germany and Zackaroth more to handle nuclear weapons than the Nigerian people? Italy, Germany and Zackaroth have committed war crimes. There has been no war crimes committed by the NSRA. Italy and Zackaroth have used biological weapons against civilian populations, the NSRA has not. If you ask me, I'd trust the leadership of the NSRA more than some of the nations existing today."

"No, this is not. The NSRA has done not anything that would disqualify them from owning WMDs."

"Nigeria is a warzone. All WMDs should be kept away from it at all times. And I include biological weapons in that category too! When the CSN investigation is completed I assure you the Sixth Republic will be taking appropriate action in response to that occurrence, however we should also prevent other such cases from occurring."
