[Romanic Imperium]

Atlanta walks into the room.
"Guess I'm early. Which is perfect because now I can look through the documents I was given

[Janpia]

Helmin anxiously looks at his watch, as he hurriedly walk towards the KTO boardroom. "Hopefully I'm not late" he whispers. He is wearing the Janpian party badge, and a black suite, that is complemented by his red and black stripe tie and a silver watch. On his hand is a suitcase, all containing important KTO papers, and copies of the treaty itself. As he approaches towards the door, he takes a deep bow, and enters the room. He then went on to his seat, and adjusted his tie to relax himself. He then pulls out the papers on his desk

Rep. Helmin:"Now before we begin, are there any questions regarding the treaty itself? The treaty is in effect, and I suggest to all new member states to sign the treaty, to be effectively be part of the KTO"

[The Aquaria]

Representative Noelle Silva entered the venue and sat down.

'Oh hello Helmin.'

[Auxington]

“Regarding Article XI, how would those military “advisers and planners” be chosen? Would it just be the top brass of each national military?” Representative Charles would ask.

Rep. Helmin:"Yes. It will be a joint command of some sort. Each nation must send their own planners or advisers, to coordinately work with their other counterparts"

[Auxington]

“Alright, thank you. I do have another question though. Article V mentions a Security Council. Will we hold elections for it at some point?”

[Janpia]

“Alright, thank you. I do have another question though. Article V mentions a Security Council. Will we hold elections for it at some point?”

Rep. Helmin:"The only people we have to elect are 5 member states, that have the power to veto legislations by the majority. The Article V is a statement that all armies of the KTO will be under the command of the Security Council. Which is a collective group of advisers and planners as stated on Article XI."

I think that for the council either you or Galapagos should head it. After all you created this.: Atalanta Bravdo

I will agree with that

[Free Terra]

Mohammed was tense in his seat, far from the delegates with an ear piece telling him in real time what was being said. His badge told everyone around him that he was an outside observer, and thus without a vote on the committee. The Red-and-Gold Eagle pins on his suit told everyone that he was a delegate from the GFRFT. His colleagues, the Treasurer called in just for financial and trade expertise and the former Baja Congresswoman, had remained silent and terse thanks to him. This was, after all, the field of a Senior Ambassador.

Always a red-headed stepchild even among socialist nations, Free Terra was not known for far reaching influence these days. The overall apathy that was held in regards to foreign affairs led to distrust by many, and the return of Free Terra to world politics left middling soft power on the world stage in spite of the GFRFT's hard power. No longer would the voice remain silent, he thought.

"Would it not represent a more outward approach if the Security Council was chosen from many member states? Perhaps rotating members?"

So spoke the man at the end of the room.

Atalanta raises her eyebrow. "I guess we could do that. Though I do agree their should be a rotation for some members.but not all"

Rep. Helmin:"The security council is a joint command, authorizing all KTO member state's militaries for an action decided by their chosen advisors or military leaders on the said council. Of course, the KTO army shouldn't be controlled by a few members alone, but everyone instead. This is done so to make coordinated operations between militaries and allowing inter-operability with each other"

[Somurias]

Ambassador Ivan Molotov arrived at the KTO headquarter. He immediately walks into the room, while 4 of his PSMVD Security Guard, stays outside and watching the area around the building, to ensure the safety of the ambassador. "Greetings. Sorry if i was late, President Sun Zhao needs me to negotiate something with our neighboring country in South China," says Ivan Molotov. He then take a sit in his designated seat

[Gonswanza]

Rep. Howell Maximoff would step in to take his seat, adjusting his tie and combing back his hair before adjusting the plaque on his desk and taking a sip of water prior to speaking up. As the representative for Gonswanza, he was hand-picked by the Green Party to address international relations, given that the president's advisor couldn't afford to fill such a role beyond the office of the president (beyond very specific cases concerning the WA via more indirect means).

Yet, he's quick to speak up once Laura Ortiz gets confirmation of the acceptance.

Good day, I suppose. I am Howell Maximoff of the Armed Republic of Gonswanza, here to voice some mild concern over the GCN and also the more immediate situation in the now-former Iraqi Empire, given that for the former the GCN seems to be attempting to attack the KTO's status via a misinformation campaign, while for the latter the agreed-upon boundaries are now coming under fire from a former coalition member attempting to overtake the rest of Iraq, bringing Gonswanzan, S.Americanstan, Vilkanian and European occupation zones under immediate threat given recent developments. While Gonswanza is aware Krieg is NOT a part of the KTO, such actions could ignite a second war for the area to reign in their greed and force them back to their original occupation zone in Iran, if possible. But for now, Gonswanza is setting up artillery and physical barriers along with digging in should they try to expand their territory further, while Laura Ortiz will await what the KTO has to say about this rapidly developing crisis.

[Janpia]

Rep. Helmin:"I agree that the GCN is attempting to destabilize or trip over the KTO. The best defense we can do is to fact check their claims to shut them down. As for your concern on the agreed boundaries, you have the support of the KTO. What the Krieg is doing is simply breaking what the coalition had planned. Not to mention, it also endangers the claims of other KTO member states as well. I will message back to the Revolutionary Council for them to plan out. Furthermore, we should act defensive and on alert for any attacks. Though as for now, we must serve and aid the refugees attempting to leave Iraq"

[Hintuwan]

Representative Papang nodded in agreement to Representative Maximoff's assessment of the situation.

"I speak on behalf of the Hintuwani government when I say that my deepest sympathies go out to the people of Iraq during this time of great strife. While I and my government advise caution as well as full respect for international law in mobilizing any sort of force to try to deter a reignition of hostilities, we also recognize the necessity of deterrence should the coalition attempt aggressive measures.

We therefore request that the necessary procedures be undertaken so that Hintuwan may be allowed to deploy its 113th Infantry Battalion in order to reinforce Gonswanza's troops who are setting up artillery positions and erecting physical barriers."

[Gonswanza]

Maximoff nods, though he soon gathers an update from Laura Ortiz and the MoD, given recent developments. While information was now pushed around about the existence of the Long and Short Strike missiles, they still remain rather obscure, but Maximoff decides to inform KTO of their existence along with Gonswanza's specialty deterrent in hopes that the KTO doesn't take action against Gonswanza for the existence of such a terrifying device.

And I have just received word that Gonswanza intends to offer Long Strike missiles to the KTO, along with informing the alliance of their specialty deterrent. Said deterrent is the SLAM, which is a nuclear powered guided cruise missile, capable of delivering several cobalt bombs over a wide area, then entering a phase of self-destruction where the reactor enters a meltdown as the missile flies around to rain down radioactive debris in its wake even after causing horrific damage from the shockwave and bombs respectively, salting the earth further. Once it can no longer maintain flight due to damages to the reactor core, it will self-destruct by slamming into the ground, spreading irradiated debris across a large area. While such a deterrent will not be used actively, it is on the table should it be deemed necessary.

As for the Long Strike missiles, they are "short" ranged anti-ship ballistic missiles, with a 1,700-kilometer range. They are also incredibly difficult to counter, given that no known system can intercept it during the first stage and it could only be theoretically intercepted prior to reentry. Once it does reenter the atmosphere it would simply be too fast to intercept or counter, should it be on target. Theoretically, it could be countered via electronic warfare, but internal guidance would say otherwise.

[Romanic Imperium]

Atalanta walks away to talk on her phone. When she comes back she says.

"While it is unfortunate that Kreig is trying to occupy Iraq. Have you considered a peace summit for leaders of all the nations that are involved? I would hope you have rather than jumping to an immediate conclusion that violence is needed."

[Second Hungarian Soviet Republic]

Representative Németi enters the Boardroom, sits down, and says the following words:
“Hello there, fellow elvtársok of the KTO. I am a new re-”
He soon realizes that they are speaking of an invasion of Iraq.
“Á, ne már! It’s the Iraq and Gulf War from our universe all over again.”

[Gonswanza]

He soon realizes that they are speaking of an invasion of Iraq.
“Á, ne már! It’s the Iraq and Gulf War from our universe all over again.”

To this, Maximoff waves his hand to try to get the fellow rep to settle down, acknowledging the possible diplomatic approach. Not that they were referring to military intervention (yet), though it was proposed as a counter to a sharp advance, rather than an intervention.

The war's over, but the occupation has been shaky. Again, Gonswanza is digging in defensively, mobilized in case Krieg falls out of line. But so far the proposal tossed around is more reactionary in case they try to defy the former empire's sovereignty. We can try a diplomatic approach, though it seems they have pulled their forces back to some limited extent, as Gonswanza is keeping a standing military on alert in case of an incursion. However, it still has me worried that they may try something else given how oddly they have moved within the past few hours going from full mobilization gearing up for war to pulling back only to rush back and forth. Only recently did they settle down now, as far as I'm aware, along with the Gonswanzan Ministry of Defense... Even with the wall completed.

And, technically, their military intelligence. But that's generally assumed, really. And best left that way.

[Janpia]

Rep. Helmin:"Greetings comrades! I have received a message from Kalingrad, that there will be a possible merge between the KTO and LDO. The LDO has similar goals with ours, that being on fighting democracy, peace, and cooperation. But of course, the Janpian Union would retain neutral to this matter until further notice. The merge would still make the treaty and the alliance in general still on effect. So to all representatives, what are your opinions? I believe we can put this to a vote."

[Romanic Imperium]

I vote no

[Janpia]

I vote no

Rep. Helmin:"I respect that"

[The Military State of the Galapagos]

I vote aye
