We, the signatory states of the Ventana Pact hereby proclaim our intention to enter into a mutual pledge to engage in any and all legal remedies prescribed to us through the conventions of international law to render materiel harm to nations that engage in or tolerate the practice of chattel slavery, or who otherwise profit on the trafficking of human beings for the illicit usage of their bodies for unlawful purposes. This penalty shall be achieved through economic sanctions, a general prohibition of services and utilities, and the interception of transport ships in international waters known to be harboring chattel cargo or those that profit from the practice thereof. The free travel of human traffickers, slave-owning individuals or slavers themselves shall be restricted, and the right of nations to engage in such barbaric practices no longer recognized. Any attempt to legalize the sale or trafficking of human beings for gain shall be considered null and void. Any formal petition to the governments of the signatory states to the Ventana Pact to remove sanctions against them shall be ignored while the institution of human trafficking and slavery is permitted upon their soil. These measures utilized against human traffickers and slavers shall remain indefinitely.
For those commercial organizations, individual states and multinational alliances that refuse to recognize the right of commercial organizations, individual states or multinational alliances to engage in, profit from or otherwise sanction chattel slavery and human trafficking, you are henceforth invited to participate in the fight to end these intolerable practices by pledging to uphold the tenets of the Ventana Pact. The convention of likeminded nation-states pledged to this treaty are not bound to any formal alliance, nor are they required to provide any materiel or monetary payment to participate. Instead, the signatory states of the Ventana Pact are pledging to utilize the means and measures prescribed therein in their own nations, through their own physical actions and under the supervision of their own domestic governments. The protocols issued within this treaty are designed to help those states ready and willing to fight for the liberation of all chattel slaves in our lifetime achieve maximum results against those that engage, profit from or otherwise sanction the practices of human trafficking and chattel slavery. An application to pledge to uphold the actions prescribed by the treaty will be provided below for any and all interested parties.
We, the undersigned participants and sponsors of this Treatise do hereby pledge to observe and uphold the responsibilities prescribed herein; to refrain from engaging in any practice that may contradict the spirit of purpose behind the creation of this Treatise and to commit to enacting the responsibilities prescribed herein as expediently as may be allowed. We, the undersigned participants and sponsors of this Treatise disavow the practice of chattel slavery and illicit human trafficking for the purposes of labor, medical experimentation and exploitation, sexual servitude and/or any other unlawful purpose as defined by the conventions and customs of international law. Furthermore, the undersigned participants and sponsors of this Treatise hereby condemn the commercial organizations, individual nation-states and multinational alliances that engage in, profit from or otherwise sanction the practices of chattel slavery and illicit human trafficking and shall refrain from treating with them so long as they continue to engage in, profit from, or sponsor these inhumane institutions. In order to enact and uphold these principles, the following prescriptions shall henceforth be practiced and recognized by the signatory states and sponsored by supportive commercial organizations and multinational alliances.❏ CHATTEL SLAVERY is hereby defined in whole or in part as the practice of owning, purchasing, or trading human beings as commodities; to detain a person or persons against their will; to deprive the person or persons of the freedom of movement and the right to self-determination; and the practice of utilizing a person or persons for financial gain or personal comfort without compensation paid to the person or persons being forced to provide the service.
