Repeal: “Consular Rights”
Category: Repeal | GA #164
Proposed by: Simone_Republic | Onsite Topic
Replacement: < Consular Protection Abroad >​
The World Assembly,
Acknowledging the protection afforded by the targeted resolution (GAR#164 "Consular Rights") to common citizens accused of or convicted of crimes in other states;

Concerned however that the said resolution explicitly requires that those seeking help abroad may meet representative(s) from "their home nation's diplomatic mission within a host nation, should such a diplomatic mission exist" and also allows prison visits only if "such a diplomatic mission exist";

Worried that not all member states would have the resources to have a diplomatic mission in every other state, and that recent developments in the multi-verse on sharing of diplomatic resources and permitting allied member states to assist each other's citizens in abroad through shared missions have been impaired by the wording of the said resolution;

Believing that the target resolution's declaration "that foreigners convicted of crimes and imprisoned within member states have the right to meet with a representative of their home nation's diplomatic mission privately, within the prison, once per year, should such a diplomatic mission exist" hinders the expansion of rights to foreigners convicted of crimes and imprisoned at another member state, as mentioned;

Awaiting a suitable replacement with improved protection for member states' citizens abroad through the repeal of the target resolution;

Hereby repeals the resolution "Consular Rights".

Present as I do not usually vote on my own resolutions.

But the rationale for the repeal should be pretty obvious and spelt out clearly:

"Believing that the target resolution's declaration "that foreigners convicted of crimes and imprisoned within member states have the right to meet with a representative of their home nation's diplomatic mission privately, within the prison, once per year, should such a diplomatic mission exist" hinders the expansion of rights to foreigners convicted of crimes and imprisoned at another member state, as mentioned"

Edit: Please note that it has been resubmitted because of the use of the word "only" to describe prison visitations which Wallenburg
ruled was an honest mistake. I have not restarted a new thread.
