Nuclear Aggression Act
Category: Global Disarmament | Strength: Significant
Proposed by: Jedinsto | Onsite Topic​

The World Assembly,

Understanding that some smaller nations' only protection from larger nations is mutually assured destruction,

Wishing to limit nuclear devastation among member nations,

Hereby;

1. Defines for the purposes of this resolution;
   1. "nuclear weapon" as a bomb or missile that uses nuclear fission, fusion, or a combination of the two processes to create an explosion,
   2. "weapon of mass destruction" (herein WMD) as a chemical, biological, or nuclear weapon capable of causing widespread death and destruction in a single strike,
   3. "military invasion" as a military force of significant size, including any unmanned weapons, directed by its government to enter foreign territory in order to cause mass destruction to civilian targets or to strike a government property,
2. Bans the use of nuclear weapons on other World Assembly member nations unless;
   1. in retaliation to a strike from a WMD, conventional warhead or a military invasion within 30 days of such an occurrence,
   2. in retaliation to a WMD strike, conventional warhead or a military invasion on behalf of a government which has been completely obliterated by the same WMD strike, conventional warhead, or military invasion, though the retaliation may only be carried out when the obliterated government would have been legally authorized to carry out the same retaliation,
   3. in retaliation to a WMD strike, conventional warhead or a military invasion on behalf of a nation allied by treaty for the purposes of mutual defense, with the initially struck government's authorization, and when the initially struck government would be allowed to perform the retaliation themselves, or
   4. the target nation has violated the terms of this resolution at any point since its passage,
3. Clarifies that this resolution does not ban nuclear testing on the soil of the nation testing, nor does it prevent future legislation from creating further restrictions on the use or possession of nuclear weapons.

This was a work in progress for over a year, what does GA#2 have to do with this?

Simone_Republic:

I meant the potential changes to the war related clauses of GA#2 post that repeal.

Jedinsto:

Regardless of whatever happens with the replacements, I believe this is a logical step towards global disarmament and does not limit the possibilities for replacements whatsoever.
