[Lorrana]

Lorrana representative Maya Raddok walks into the room

"Apologies if I'm late. I don't have any topics to present at the moment"

[Dalmannia]

Secretary General Büchler nodded. “Not to worry Miss Raddok—and thank you Chairman Kraus. Today, I shall bring up three matters to the agenda: the establishment of an official ICDN Peacekeeping Force, the reconstruction of post-war Ohkhos, and the resurgence of the Mauriti Civil War this past month.”

“Peacekeeping is a vital pillar to stabilizing war-torn regions and ensuring lasting human rights abroad. Therefore, while we may be capable to act with our individual militaries in peacekeeping interventions, I believe that if we are to act cohesively in operations, a uniform peacekeeping branch of the ICDN is necessary—not only to increase the possibilities of our teamwork, but to remove the bias of individual nations. I additionally propose that we select several sites for training, as well as military experts and humanitarian lawyers to educate and prepare our peacekeepers. This shall be put to a vote among the delegates present. Representing Dalmannia, I vote yea.”
