Dear LIDUN members,

Doatia appreciates your concerns regarding the situation in Roucourt. Civil wars are messy, and the loss of any life is too much. Perhaps it's too little too late, as LIDUN would've originally allowed Roucourt to be taken over by the extremist PNDS, or allowed the even more insane ARL to make gains. 

In the effort of transparency, Doatia has worked out a deal with Xiomera and Roucourt, the two already having established relations, before moving forward with it's military commitments. The agreement, summarized, establishes a new trade agreement between Xiomera, Roucourt and Doatia. It allows Xiomera to lease a military base in Roucourt and Doatia to construct and lease a military academy, and share control with Xiomera and Roucourt. Among other things, Doatia convinced Xiomera to "not obstruct" democratic efforts and progress in Roucourt, and it also authorized Doatia's use of ground forces. 

It was our intention to retake hostile territory asap, reflected in the large deployment of troops. However, after a discussion with the government of Roucourt, they've asked the Doatian Armed Forces (DAF) to only deploy half of it's dedicated troops, 50,000, and place the other half on standby in Doatia.

I'd also like to make clear, in response to concerns of Doatia's intentions, upon the restoration of peace and stabilization of Roucourt, and the establishment of a new government, we're committed to withdrawing a minimum of 75% of our assets in Roucourt at the time. The remaining 25% are prepared to stay, to help in reconstruction efforts. 

Furthermore, Doatia, the World Hope Foundation, and Queen Aiyisha's monarch fund is investing significant amounts to humanitarian aid, the transportation and housing of refugees, jobs training and education programs, and beginning reconstruction efforts. 

To appease some LIDUN members concerns, Queen Aiyisha invites LIDUN members to send small delegations to join her delegation in Roucourt, where she is negotiating the setup of the new government, volunteering, and visiting war-torn areas. Delegates would be restricted to Roucourt-controlled areas and non-conflict zones, and under the protection of the DAF.

Put action behind your words and support peace and stability in Roucourt.

Thank you,

Currently the constitution provisions on Delegate voting is as follows:

Quote:
§3.7 The World Assembly Delegate is required to vote in the General Assembly, Security Council, or any other World Assembly body in a manner that reflects the region’s wishes. The World Assembly Delegate is required to post on the Regional Message Board at the time of their vote, and the manner of how they voted. The World Assembly Delegate may, from time to time, abstain from voting if they are of the belief the region is equally, or close to equally, divided.
§3.8 Notwithstanding the above provision, the World Assembly Delegate may vote on behalf of the region in the General Assembly, Security Council, or any other World Assembly body, according to their own beliefs and their own position provided that their vote at close of voting ultimately reflects the will of the region.
§3.9 The World Assembly Delegate shall have discretion to approve proposals made to the General Assembly, Security Council, or any other World Assembly body.

I would like to amend this to the following:

Quote:§3.7 The World Assembly Delegate is required to vote in the General Assembly, or any other body of the World Assembly with the exception of the Security Council, in a manner that reflects the region’s wishes.
§3.8 The World Assembly Delegate is required to vote in the Security Council of the World Assembly in a manner that reflects the region's wishes, with the exception of votes where the World Assembly Delegate is of the opinion that to do so would (i) harm the region's international standing and/or reputation, (ii) negatively impact the region's relationship with treaty allies, or (iii) alter the region's long-standing anti-malicious raiding position.
§3.9 The World Assembly Delegate is required to post on the Regional Message Board at the time of their vote, and the manner of how they voted; the World Assembly Delegate may, from time to time, abstain from voting if they are of the belief the region is equally, or close to equally, divided.
§3.10 During a period of voting, the World Assembly Delegate shall have the discretion to vote on behalf of the region in the General Assembly, Security Council, or any other World Assembly body, according to their own beliefs and their own position provided that their vote at the close of voting ultimately meets the requirements of the above provisions.
§3.11 The World Assembly Delegate shall have discretion to approve proposals made to the General Assembly, Security Council, or any other World Assembly body.


I would like the League to please consider and adopt the above amendment so as to better enable me and future Delegates to protect the IDU's international reputation, keep relationships with treaty allies in good condition, and maintain our long-standing position that griefing and malicious raiding is a stain on the game. There may be some new Security Council resolutions relating to injunctions where this discretion would allow me to stand with our treaty allies against malicious raiders. Now that the game has changed how some regions work, maintaining our allies is vitally important.

I would ask the League to please expedite any discussion and voting period on this.

Thanks,]]>

Please see attached the draft Charter of the League of IDU Nations. In authoring this draft, I've sought to preserve the feel of the real-life UN, including various councils and a Security Council, while also streamlining it for the benefit of RP purposes, particularly in an environment where nations may appear or cease to participate actively at any time. 



I intend to bring this to a vote for ratification by the League one week from today, on Wednesday, July 6th. Please let me know any comments or suggestions below in the meantime!
