"Indeed it would be appropriate. I hope this body can act promptly and ensure that the Southern Sea doesn't become destabilized."

"May I assume Noronica is heading the prosecution? Does Charbagnia have a representative to defend it? Let us too pick the three judges now," Sir Giles prodded, hoping to distract from the previous incident.

"I understand your concerns, Noronican Delegate, and Volkegoth would be glad to aid in this investigation," Governor-General Hendriks spoke," but don't we have other issues to deal with right now?"

Volkegoth wrote:"I understand your concerns, Noronican Delegate, and Volkegoth would be glad to aid in this investigation," Governor-General Hendriks spoke," but don't we have other issues to deal with right now?"

"As it is, Governor-General. The ICJ still must process the Athara Magarati prisoner first and such is awaiting the selection of three judges.

"However, this is the concern of the ICJ, not the league chamber. It is of the utmost importance to hinder the proliferation and use of chemical weapons in order to protect the well-being of the citizens across the isles. Since the league cannot leap to conclusions without solid proof, an investigation is in order. We must implore the Charbagnian government to allow a league investigation in order to help the regional community understand the situation - and lead to de-escalation."

...is what Robert said out loud. The preliminary reports indicated that the presence of Sarin was overwhelmingly likely, but a successful investigation would help spur intervention. And beside ridding the region of a dangerous weapon, intervention yielded opportunity.

Rodger looked to the Verdonian delegate a nodded in thanks, "I must agree, time is of the essence and we must ensure that we do not have potential Weapons of Mass Destruction in an aggressive nation. The Charbagnian Government should accept an investigation as it will know the consequences of withholding information. While I respect the importance of your situation Governor-General, the Assembly has to move on while the ICJ will aid you."

He turned to Sir Giles, "Noronica would be honoured to do so, but I prospose that an international team is formed to undergo investigations. Noronica is prepared to contribute three investigators and its Ambassador in the Charbagnian Noronnican Consulate so as to smooth out diplomatic immunity for the League investigatory team."

Rodger spoke again, "Would this be agreeable to the Assembly and those who wish to join the international investigatory team?"

"It would be"

"Yes, it is agreeable. Verona Beach would like to offer to contribute scientific minds to the investigatory team."

"This issue deserves high attention, therefore, I most definitely agree with the Nornnican. I would also like to offer Jimenean human and financial resources to the investigation if needed."

Rodger turned to the three delegates, "I thank you for your support in this matter."

He then spoke to the Assembly as a whole, a new resolution in front of each member, "I would then like to put forward this resolution for the consideration of the Assembly."
