General Assembly Proposal
ID: ardavs_1514835143
Submarine Warfare Resrictions
A resolution to slash worldwide military spending.
Category: Global Disarmament
Strength: Significant
Proposed by: Ardavs
Concerned about the victims of submarine attacks;
Observing that locating and neutralizing submarines can be a difficult task, allowing the submarines to cause severe damages to civillian and military vessels;
Further observing that some vessels, especially civillian vessels, are defenceless against submarines;
Noting that submarines, equipped with the propper technology, can pass undetected by radars or sonars;
Further noting that those submarines can carry nuclear weapons;
Defining, for the purposes of this resolution, "submarines" as any vessel which is capable of submerging (not sinking);
Further defining "cloak devices" as any device or technology that can hide an object from radars, sonars or other detection Technologies;
The World Assembly hereby:
1. Prohibits:
a) any kind of submarine assault on civillian vessels;
b) submarines to be equipped with cloaking devices, except when they are guarding national coastlines, undestanding "national coastlines" as the coastlines of the country which the submarine belongs to. Submarines shall not claim that they are guarding their national coastlines if they are more than 300km away from their national coastlines.
c) submarines to intentionally crash with other vessels.
Those who disrespect the prohibitions above shall be considered war criminals.
2. Urges member nations to remove nuclear weapons from their submarines.
3. Remembers that these regulations do NOT apply to civillian submarine vessels, and DO apply to military vessels. Making a war crime to disguise a military submarine as a civillian submarine.
