Ban On Wars Of Aggression
Category: Global Disarmament| Strength: Significant
Proposed by: Magecastle Embassy Building A5 | Onsite Topic​

Whereas member nations, having united with each other to form this august institution, should work in harmony together to improve the world;

Whereas the World Assembly should use its influence to protect the security of member nations, allowing them to more efficiently spend their finite resources and collaborate to improve the world without having to cope with the threat of armed attack from other member nations; and

Whereas this body's recent repeal of "Rights and Duties of WA States" has opened the doors to greater opportunities to promote peace between the nations of this grand bureaucracy;

Be it resolutely enacted as follows.

1. Acts of war. For the purposes of this resolution, an act of war against a nation shall mean any act involving the wilful use of armed force to prevent that nation from exercising full sovereignty over its jurisdiction. The act of wilfully assisting an act of war against a nation shall itself be considered an act of war against that nation.
   
   
2. Sovereignty. No member nation may engage in any act of war against another member nation, subject only to Section 3. The World Assembly shall consider any violation of this Section to be a heinous crime, and a crime against peace.
   
   
3. Exceptions. Regardless of this resolution's other mandates, the following exceptions shall apply to Section 2.
   1. Section 2 shall not prohibit armed action which does not interrupt any period of the de facto absence of armed conflict; and is (i) taken by a nation to retaliate against an act of war against that nation; or (ii) necessary to comply with a public agreement with another nation requiring such action to retaliate against an act of war against said nation.
      
      
   2. Humanitarian intervention, which is determined by the World Assembly Commission on Human Rights to be essential for the halting of any widespread, ongoing act explicitly or implicitly classified by World Assembly law as a crime against humanity; and is performed in the most limited manner necessary to halt said act; shall not be prohibited by Section 2.
4. Dispute arbitration. The Wartime Service for Arbitration (WSA) is a subcommittee of the International Mediation Foundation, and shall arbitrate disputes vis-à-vis acts of war upon consent from all involved parties. Such arbitration is to occur on internationally neutral territory, and shall have the goal of ending, preventing, or preventing escalation of armed conflict.
