Motion:
Syrixia is henceforth suspended from the North Pacific Treaty Organization

Enough is enough. The delegation from Guslantis would like to call for a vote of no confidence in the delegate from Syrixia, being a living contradiction to the Charter. Actions taken by the nation are not being handled through diplomatic talks and peaceful methods, but through deliberately timed cries of help to their organization, the Helmebaine Alliance. This motion does not affect the Alliance, nor will I hope to offend any members, but I see no say from the other members of the Alliance, but it appears as though if it makes the Republic unhappy, Alliance members are suddenly encouraged to involve themselves. Syrixia, if not stopped, will plunge our region into another regional war. Please, I ask that you look closely at actions taken by the Republic and its alliance and look at who exactly has a large sphere of influence. However, United, our sphere engulfs the entire region in a shield of peace. Thank you.
 
Cronaal too wishes to inquire about lack of diplomacy but is biased towards Syrixia due to their protection of Cronaal.
 
Protection has its cost, unfortunately, but we don't want to see a regional war start because nations feared destruction without a catalyst. We (the Cabinet) will be willing to send supplies to Cronaal (let us know what we can do) and demand Syrixia and Nebula both get back in line and let diplomacy do its work, please. Actions always will have consequences, and we need to limit casualties on both fronts.
 
We believe some diplomacy is required, Nebula has begun to demolish the city of Karandin itself in reaction to Syrixian and Kannexian hostility.
 
Pigletville and Augustus Town are, as always, prepared to host refugees and diplomats, whichever direction this war plans to take. The Cronaali people are always welcome to Guslantis.
 
The streets of Karandin are narrow and the city is dense, we doubt there'd by little survivors. Aside from that, we'd want to keep Guslant casualties at a low, knowing your anti-war stance.
 
Oh, I'd love to see Syrixia or Nebula invade Pigletville for Cronaali citizens. You must remember Akerman has been holding back anger for a few years. She alone could probably rip the heads off of a company of soldiers.
 
Hmm, we'll allow a small detachment in the South. We wish not to risk foreign lives as this is our issue and we'd blame ourselves for dragging you into this.
 
The Forum has called home both Ambassadors for the Helmebaine Alliance and the Faibuaizu Alliance. Due to Syrixian and Kannexian warmongering the Confederation feels the original purpose of the Helmebaine Alliance, that of peace and security, has been lost. In addition, the Forum feels that Nebulan warmongering can have the same effect on the Faibuaizu Alliance if not kept in check by the more moderate and peaceful nations. As such, the Forum d'Entesa will be conducting a full review of their membership in these two Alliances. Furthermore, should action against Syrixia (also Kannex or Nebula) be required, options will be discussed and brought forward for debate. Lastly, Cronnal... Refugees are welcome on Ardal Tri under the protection of the Royal Confederation Forces and the Confederation Intelligence Community.
 
The Acting Khan gives assurance that our fleets are prepared to intervene if and when called upon by the NPTO
 
We find certain delegates here to be rather disconnected from reality. "Peaceful methods"? Hah! Might I remind the delegate from Guslantis that North Cronaali troops began the recent conflict by firing upon and murdering Syrixian and Seblandian troops. The Syrixian and Seblandian forces were there as peacekeepers. The Syrixians had the spine to help Cronaal, honorably following the duties of a Helmebaine ally, and you are punishing Syrixia for that? I say Guslantis has an ulterior motive. We have heard from reliable sources that Guslantis herself would want to expand its imperial influence, with the NPTO as her vehicle. Striking a deal with Nebula, Guslantis is attempting to throw the NPTO into disorder.
 
Syrixia would love to resort to diplomacy, but the only problem is Nebula knows only war. Nebula is the real warmongerer here. Their aggressive expansionism is the reason for the start of the Great War and the Rhuvish War, and they played a key part in the Red side of the Ryccian Civil War and the current War in Cronaal. The reason we are fighting is to protect free people and their rights against Nebula and the Red Bloc's communist aims.

Syrixia was once communist. We know how bad it is!

Yes, because throwing diplomats into disorder is really what the cause of this is. You do realize we're in the center of one of Guslantis' biggest cities. I believe the delegate from Kannex has no edge in this debate as they too have engaged in war when they should be looking for peace.

Syrixia:

Guslantis is socialist. Point nullified. Nebula is not in NPTO. Point nullfied. Syrixia as a nation, has, whether or not the delegate realizes this, manipulated an alliance and will, with the help of other nations, plunge the region into a war no one wants. Mr. Durand, can you elaborate further?
 
Let's examine the recent conflicts:
  • Nebulan invasion of Rhuvanland
  • Rhuvish Communist Rebellion
  • Rhuvish Liberation War
  • Cronaal conflict

In the first conflict, Rhuvish sovereignty was blatantly violated as Nebulan forces attacked the Federal Republic of Rhuvanland. Allied Helmebaine forces beat back the Nebulan invaders.

In the second conflict, communist insurgents rose up in Rhuvanland with Nebulan support. Remember that Shei Ren, a Nebulan puppet state, struck Rhuvanland with its missiles, and a military response was required to ensure the security of Rhuvanland, Kannex, and Syrixia.

In the third conflict, the legitimate democratic government was restored against the opposition of the Nebulan-backed communist government. Helmebaine forces restored national sovereignty to Rhuvanland.

In the latest conflict, North Cronaali forces attacked Seblandian and Syrixian peacekeepers. The North Cronaalis attempted to take over South Karandin and they are now facing the consequences.

I ask you, where is the aggression? Where is the warmongering? The Helmebaine Alliance responds to cries of help from its allies. We are all bound by oath and honor. War is not what we desire, but that is what has been given to us. We have looked for peace, and found it on the other side of Nebulan-backed rifles and rockets.

I cannot help but to wonder if the socialist tendencies of Guslantis has any bearing on this unwarranted proposal. Kannex has no intention of overturning any socialist government that is not a threat to Kannexan security interests.

Nebula is the real threat here. Nebula's black tentacles pervade every corner of the world, seeking to overthrow democratic rule and the independence of nations. The Nebulan government would have you enslaved under their rule, under the guise of socialism or whatever ideology they speak of. Their ideology is a thin veil for Nebulan expansionism, and this the Kannexan Empire will not tolerate.
 
While we agree with Kannex, we do think this war has gone on long enough and the cause of this is Nebulan expansionism. We need to talk to them and stop this, lest more nations are attacked by the Nebulans and conflict continues.
 
The Plembobrian delegation supports this decision. The Syrixian government must understand that they can't "prevent conflicts from escalating" by add more troops to the mix. It's like trying to put out a fire with gasoline.

The Plembobrian government maintains a strict non-interventionist policy, and will stand by that.

I wish to inform the Syrixian delegate that Communism is not synonymous with totalitarianism. It is not. Though it is considered odious by many, the history of Syrixia under communism is not applicable to the rest of the world.
 
We only put troops in because if we didn't, the Nebulans would win easily. Nevertheless, I believe we have an agreement. We will send the offer to host negotiations to Nebula.
 
To the Plembobrian delegate: We have seen that communism as practiced by Nebulan lackeys in Rhuvanland and Cronaal means totalitarianism and repression. Freedom of speech and press were limited. Political opponents were killed or jailed. Burdaucrats ruled every inch of their subjects' lives. How can you not say that this communism was not totalitarian? The hard earned wages of citizens were stolen away; those countries were forced into poverty by delusional red masters. That is communism - it is against what we stand for. But the Helmebaine is not concerned with those peoples who have chosen this route by their own free will. We concern ourselves when national sovereignty is violated and the people's freedom struck down. The actions in Rhuvanland and Cronaal are both justified and necessary.
 
We applaud NPTO command for taking the step in suspending Syrixia's membership within this august body and we stand in support of this measure
 
I would like to point out that the Syrixian representative was recently elected as the Commander in Chief of the NPTO Peacekeeping Forces. In that time, I have yet to see him utilize those Forces and end this ridiculous conflict with Nebula in a diplomatic manner.
 
(OOC: PMed Nebs last night. No response. He hasn't posted at all today either.)
 
Again we are staying neutral on this. The last time we were neutral on this, however we were little bit supporting on the last proposal to suspend Syrixia, but now we are staying neutral not supporting any sides, this time.
 
To the members voting Nay to this proposal, I present a statement released by Prime Minister Alfred Nursson over Fluttr while the war was still in its beginning stages. He said neutrality. He said he'd work with NPTOPF and bring an end to this war. Lies. Lies I tell you. Even when he had all power to do so, Prime Minister Nursson let his delegate to NPTOPF stand in the wings and cause one of the largest wars in the history of our region. I'm sorry, but the Guslants cannot and will not support Syrixia any longer. Two motions are being called tomorrow morning in Pigletville, and one is to condemn the actions of Syrixia and cut the diplomatic ties of a republic we thought we knew. Let this motion fail, members, and you'll be showing what exactly NPTO really is. It isn't a shield of peace, it's a dagger of war. Let us support these actions of war and death of civilians and troops alike. We can't punish all of the belligerents of this damned war, but we can blame the ones committed to peace!

Nursson:
After a brief discussion in Parliament, Syrixia has decided to attempt to stop this conflict. While we commend Rhuvanland for standing up to Nebula, we can tell this will soon erupt into a greater war and will not be risking this. Syrixia will remain neutral and help the NPTO Peacekeeping Forces prevent the escalation of this war. #SyrixianDecision #NPTOPF

This is true. We were committed to neutrality.

However, it is important to note the only reason we still entered the war was not because of anything going on in Rhuvanland, but because war was declared on a number of countries, including us, by an insane queen.

The former Queen did not ask you to take part in Nebulan conflict.

The former Queen did not ask you to take part in Nebulan conflict.
Diana sent troops to Rhuvanland to, according to them themselves, burn, wreck, et cetera. We sent a fleet there in response. Had we not, Rhuvanland or at least some of it would have been in flames. That's not very peaceful.

As for the Nebulan conflict itself, following the Cronaali war declaration Nebula and Syrixia declared a truce that lasted until the end of the war, when the peace negotiations were made. So we didn't really directly participate in the Nebulan conflict.
 
Justified war against a crazy, power-abusing queen is no grounds for suspension. We are keeping our "nay" vote.
 
Self defense is justifiable against a mad queen who declared war against other nations and as such it is not grounds for suspension. However, it is a widely known fact that Syrixia and Nebula are arch enemies and will find any opportunity to start a war with each other. And while you claim a peace treaty was in effect during the Cronnal conflict, we disagree... Both you and Nebula were active participants in the war which again ties back to the non-use of the NPTO Peacekeeping Forces to end this peacefully and diplomatically (of whom you are their Commander in Chief) and instead utilizing the Helmebaine to further goals of war. As such, the Confederations original ruling of Aye to suspend Syrixia from the NPTO still stands.
 
Siegfried Megide stood, slamming his fist onto the table. "Might I remind you gentlemen that Syrixia is a member and -- what's more -- a founder of the Helmebaine Alliance? What is a man that does not honor his vows? A man without honor... that is, no man at all." His eyes scanned over the chamber, eyeing the Guslant, Cronaali, and Kaltian representatives. "If you knew anything about honor, if you had any sense of honor, you would understand the necessity of rushing to your ally's aid. Might I remind you, sirs, that Rhuvanland was under attack. The enemy was not only at their front gates -- they were within! Cities were being pillaged by Nebulan brutes. Rhuvish men, women, and children were being slaughtered. In this, the only possible, sensible choice was to aid Rhuvanland in its quest. And I speak for the Kannexan Empire that we wholeheartedly supported, as we support now, the fine countries of Rhuvanland and Syrixia. I speak for the Kannexan Empire when I say we will not apologize for beating back the communist scum from Rhuvanland!"
 
Corie sighed and turned to Siegfried, the Kannexian NPTO Ambassador... "You accuse the Confederation of having no sense of honor yet you do so on a groundless basis. Citizens of Kalti, Tir na Andalucia and Callaici hold honor in the highest regard and it is one of the underpinnings of our society. The Forum and I have no issue with Syrixia coming to the defense of an ally in need out of a sense of honor, that is entirely reasonable and can be expected of most nations that are represented here. What I, as well as the leaders of the Estate, the Halls of Reasoning and the Halls of Understanding, do have an issue with is the fact that the Syrixian Prime Minister, Alfred Nursson, stated that his nation would remain neutral in Rhuvish affairs and seek out the use of the NPTO Peacekeeping Forces to bring about a hopefully peaceful and diplomatic end to the situation. Instead, the Syrixians turned tail and abandoned any hope of a possibly swift and peaceful solution by utilizing the Cronnal declaration of war, from the Mad Queen I might add, on the Helmebaine Alliance to further their aim of getting into a quarrel with their arch-enemy, Nebula. While it is regrettable that the Nebulan's were already within cities looting and pillaging, there was nothing you nor anyone could have done. The time it would have taken to mobilize the Helmebaine military forces versus the NPTO Peacekeeping Forces is negligible at best. It is for this reason that I am upholding the vote of 'aye' for the Confederation vote in suspending Syrixia. Had they utilized the NPTO Peacekeeping Forces first with the Helmebaine being the last resort when negotiation and peace failed, our decision would most likely be different."
 
Kannex:

I speak for the Kannexan Empire when I say we will not apologize for beating back the communist scum from Rhuvanland!"
Pittman, growing angrier, rose to confront the Kannexan delegate. "The Great War was split into many arcs, and the Kaltian delegate has already acknowledged the fact that we agree, during self defense, war is necessary to protect the borders of your nation, or a nation within your sphere of influence. The Guslant Cabinet is angered, however, as the Kannexan delegate continues to argue against communist scum and a grand scheme you idiotically think the North Pacific Treaty Organization is a part of, and continue to bombard these chambers with strange and wild ideas of what you think peace is. We want Rhuvanland free, my fiancée wanted more than anything for the land to be a sole independent country to rule how it wants to be ruled. She purposely talked with the Emperator on placing the lands under Leopard, knowing the former Minister of Entertainment would be found evil enough for him, and put the Rhuvish government under a weak leader, giving the Blue Bloc an easier time to overthrow the 'evil government' and place a democratically elected government. Leah is a smart woman, cute, but smart. I'm trying my hardest to work with you, but you are stuck on this stubbornness, and I'm afraid there's not much more I can do."
