*An extremely long, akward silence ensues. Delegates fidget with their notes, seemingly lost at what to do next*
"Ahem"
*Domini Prime Minister Taylor Carlson breaks the silence*
So, it appears that everyone is glad to be here and is willing to discuss this matter. May I suggest we begin the discussing part?
The position of the Domini People is that a region-wide organization be accountable not only to the governments which it will serve, but to the individual citizens of our region. The IDU stands for a balance between individual freedom and national sovereignty. While we respect all claims of sovereignty, we also recognise the oft-occuring need for those borders to blur and for equal rights and opportunities to exist withought restraint.
We must recognise that not all states allied within the IDU are members of the supraregional UN, nor do we enforce that they be so. We believe, though, that every meberstate in our region shares the same principles and ideals. However, this situation can sometimes lead to confusing, unequitable and sometimes even unfathomable changes to the application of the rule of law from state to state.
This organizations aim should be cooperation between its signatories to promote concensus and equality in the rule of law. We propose that a supranational IDU organization be charged with the task of uniting the citizens of our region through common and shared rights, responsibilities and goals.
In doing so, we must be mindful of culture, and cultural differences between ourselves and our neighbours. Culture, of course, is our most precious resource. But that is what will make this initiative successful, I believe. Through a multicultural exchange of ideas and dialogue, only the very best that the IDU can be will come to the surface of discussion.
I dream that every Domini citizen dreams of a better IDU, and not just a better Domnonia. I dream that in every bed of every home someone dreams of a better IDU.
Thank you.
