OOC: How comically disproportionate! ^_^ I wrote three paragraphs, and you - ten words! :blink: Plus, your diplomats use language like "ok" in official matters? LOL ^_^

IC: Our Government will be glad to sign a Treaty of Non-Aggression with Byronmandy at any time and location you specify. Let this be a beginning in the better relations between our respective Republics!

OOC: LOL, sorry. :$ There really wasn't much else to say though. You just wrote three paragraphs when you could've just convinced me with a simple "no". Even if it wasn't that big a deal to us, I'm glad that we could come to an agreement anyway.

IC: Byronmadian diplomats are ready and waiting in Davidor for any Neoplantan personnel that will be sent to sign the treaty.

The Treaty is to be signed by the Heads of State. In such a case, President Szél Andor shall be making a flash visit to Davidor, where he will be expecting his Byronmandian counterpart.

President Szél Andor,

I have been instructed to tell you that the Empire of Monaco-Ville-Nice has a mild interest in signing such an agreement with your Republic. However the Empire requires more time to debate the proposal by your Republic. The Empire will inform you of our decision either for or against your proposal in short order upon reaching a decision. We also want to inform the Republic that Croatia has been taken off board as a possible sites for an Imperial assistance corps upon the Republics request.

Dear Minister Neudorffer,
King Jason has been informed of your proposal and would be more than happy to sign the treaty during your President's state visit to Florence. I am certain this will further the good relations between our nations and he looks forward to meeting President Szel Andor soon.''
-Becca Rogers Chief of Staff to King Jason.

OOC: Both MVN and San Lumen received communiques basically saying "OK!" with a lot of fancy wordage. MVN, take your time, and be free to alter the draft to your liking, and then we'll talk. As for Celatoria, I still haven't found out what your basic problem with the draft is, so please enlighten me.

Celatoria will sign this treaty on the condition that Article 3 is altered to reflect the fact that sometimes territorial acquisitions can be allowed, if war was to arise entirely due to the fault of one party. There are also several other changes which Celatoria feels would make this treaty more acceptable. This is revision to the treaty proposed by the Celatorian Foreign Ministry;

Quote:
 
Article 1. By this Treaty, the United Republic of Neoplanta is obliged not to enter the sovereign territories and mandates of the United Kingdom of Celatoria with any form of military force, unless the United Kingdom of Celatoria expresses explicitly its will for the United Republic of Neoplanta to do so.

Article 2. By this Treaty, the the United Kingdom of Celatoria is obliged not to enter the sovereign territories of the United Republic of Neoplanta and that of its mandate of the Protectorate of Hellas with any form of military force, unless the United Republic of Neoplanta expresses explicitly its will for the United Kingdom of Celatoria to do so.

Article 3. If Articles 1. or 2. of this Treaty are breached by either side without valid justification, the sovereign owner of the territory is considered the rightful owner and defender of the territory in perpetuity and any question pertaining to the ownership of the territory are considered closed in advance, with the territory belonging to its owner at the time of signing of this Treaty. Valid justification is considered as immediate moral necessity.

Article 4. If Articles 1. or 2. of this Treaty are breached by either side with valid justification, territory may be seized by either side, pending decision on its rightful ownership by an international court of arbitration, or by the mutual agreement of both nations. Valid justification is considered as immediate moral necessity.

Article 5. If any other form of dispute emerges between the the United Kingdom of Celatoria and the United Republic of Neoplanta, and the two sides are unable to close the dispute amicably and to a mutually agreeable result within three calendar months, the dispute shall be put before a Tribunal created by members of both nations and a mutually agreed upon neutral third party. This Tribunal shall be given twelve calendar months from its creation to reach a final decision. This time period can be extended by agreement of all three parties. The three delegations of the three sides involved all have equal vote in debating the dispute.

Article 6. This Treaty has full legal power immediately upon signing by both sides.

This draft is fully and utterly unacceptable for Neoplanta, due to Article 4. We firmly believe that no cause can grant the right to any nation to legally and legitimately claim the territory of another nation; we are sternly in support of the principle of sovereignty and territorial integrity of all nations. Moral beliefs are especially not acceptable as a just cause or valid justification for such claims, as they are subjective. Such a proposal only gives us further reason to believe that the United Kingdom of Celatoria has some longterm plan that includes a land claim against the United Republic of Neoplanta, despite your previous kind and noble words.

As for Article 5., it would be fully acceptable for us to prolong in such a way the necessary activities of any body that is set up to solve an international dispute.

In any case, we do thank you for your cooperation.

We assure you, Celatoria has no desire to interfere in the Balkans in any regard. We wish to sustain a long-term peace with, and assure the neutrality of, Neoplanta.

By moral justification, it was fully intended to allow for military action only in the case of the subjugation or persecution of Celatorian subjects, or Neoplantan citizens at a governmental level. We hope this redraft is acceptable to you, as it allows for military action only in the most extreme situations, disallows the permanent seizure of land and defines moral justification in a precise, non-subjective way.

Valid justification is considered as immediate moral necessity.

Article 4. If Articles 1. or 2. of this Treaty are breached by either side with valid justification, territory may be temporarily seized by either side and their allies. Valid justification is considered as immediate moral necessity. Any land may be held temporarily during the conflict, but the people of temporarily held regions must be given full rights, with the exception of right of movement and communication, during the conflict. Valid justification is considered as immediate moral necessity.

Article 5. Issues must be submitted to a Tribunal as described in Article 6. before any military action is taken. A Tribunal must be completed, including any extensions in time, before any military action is taken. Only on the unsuccessful conclusion of a Tribunal may military action be considered.

Article 6. If any other form of dispute emerges between the the United Kingdom of Celatoria and the United Republic of Neoplanta, and the two sides are unable to close the dispute amicably and to a mutually agreeable result within two calendar months, the dispute shall be put before a Tribunal created by members of both nations and a mutually agreed upon neutral third party. This Tribunal shall be given three calendar months from its creation to reach a final decision. This time period can be extended by agreement of all three parties. The three delegations of the three sides involved all have equal vote in debating the dispute.

Article 7. Moral necessity is defined in this treaty as any occasion in which the basic human rights of the citizens of the United Republic of Neoplanta, or subjects of the United Kingdom of Celatoria have been violated systematically, at a governmental level by the alternative party. This includes, but is not limited to, the segregation and unwilling transport of the aforementioned people, any deliberate policy of ethnically cleansing areas and a lack of action to stop this persecution at an individual level in society. Justification of claims based on historical situations is not acceptable.

Article 8. Although land may not be permanently taken by military force from either the United Kingdom of Celatoria or the United Republic of Neoplanta following a validly justified conflict, other demands may be made, including monetary reparations (payable to either the government of the victorious party, or affected individuals) , military disarmament of certain regions and trade agreements.

Article 9. This Treaty has full legal power immediately upon signing by both sides. This treaty may be nullified only with the agreement of both signatory nations.

President Szél Andor,

Her Royal Highness Queen Cleopatra VII Philopator of Monaco-Ville-Nice and His Royal Majesty Pharaoh Mark Antony of Monaco-Ville-Nice. have agreed peace is what is best for both of our respective nations. Though our nations have had difficulties in the past and differences are prominent between our two nations, we do notice that Neoplanta makes a concerted effort to remain militarily neutral in all situations. Given this stance, It is the Empires belief that any problems between Neoplanta and the Empire can be solved diplomatically and without needless war with an all but fixed outcome. It is also the hope of the Empire that signing this treaty could lead to a warming of relations between our two countries. We look forward to signing this treaty and working for a better relationship with the Republic of Neoplanta.
