SC Resolution: Condemn Greater Tezdrian

[Ananke II]

Condemn Greater Tezdrian
A resolution to express shock and dismay at a nation or region.

Category: Condemnation
Nominee: Greater Tezdrian
Proposed by: Unibotian WASC Mission


Description: The Security Council,

COMMITTING itself to diplomatic efforts to end international servitude -- a commitment which current General Assembly (GA) legislation demands from member nations,

RECONGNIZING that Greater Tezdrian is the founder and the continued leader of the International Association of Slave Exporting Nations (IASEN),

NOTING that member nations of the IASEN are not obligated to comply to General Assembly legislation as the first clause of the IASEN Code of Rules demands that “all [IASEN members] must resign from the World Assembly”,

PROTESTING the IASEN’s marketing and promotion of their so-called “noble” practice of slavery,

AWARE that the IASEN operates through various storefronts and trade auctions across the world with an excess of over sixty-six million slaves in its possession,

DENOUCING the IASEN’s variation of “National Sovereignty” as a flimsy international excuse to abuse and ignore human and civil rights that were protected by anti-slavery GA legislation,

AFFIRMING that Greater Tezdrian and the IASEN have promoted an even worse reputation for national sovereignists regarding human and civil rights,

APPRECIATING the gallant opposition to the IASEN by WA members including …Ozymos, Orlkjestad, Kelanis, Uregrea, Windica and former and non-WA members including … Ostronopolis, New Chalcedon, Questers, Santheres, Allemande, Ralkovia, Marzeron, Hardenburgh and troops from the World Anti-Slavery Organization (WASO) and the Oceanic Defense Coalition (ODECON),

UNDERSTANDING that the aforementioned and highly celebrated upholders of human rights took various actions against the IASEN including…

• The seizure of slave ships,
• Engagements of war,
• Trade embargos, and economic sanctions,
• Cease and Desist orders,
• Anti-Slavery Coalitions,
• Financial compensation and incentive for the freedom of the slaves,

ACCEPTING that a condemnation of the IASEN and its unrighteous founder is the very least that the World Assembly can do as an international entity dedicated to improving worldwide human and civil rights,

DEEPLY CONCERNED that the spread of servitude, and the reversal of existing liberties is imminent without early and responsive action towards this growing problem,

HEREBY CONDEMNS Greater Tezdrian.

[Ananke II]

I don't have much of an opinion on this one so far. I just approved it, because I figured it might be nice to give a SC resolution dealing with roleplay a chance.

[Wordy]

As I dont roleplay I am on the fence on this one. I am going with Delegates choice.
That doesnt mean I dont have an opinion on slavery just that I dont want to add a vote for a part of NS I dont contribute enough too, to understand the ramifications of my vote.

A roleplay you say, *enters Patrival mode*

The United Kingdom of Patrival holds the opinion that this resolution does not discuss the unique economic and social conditions in Greater Texdrian. The World Assembly must acknowledge cultural differences between nations and imposing such a resolution upon Greater Texdrian would infringe on its national sovereignty, which the honourable delegate from Unibotian WASC Mission does not appear to hold in any regard whatsoever.

In the motive of respecting this national soverignty, the right of Greater Texdrian, Unibotian WASC Mission, and every other WA nation, Patrival urges the Security Council to vote against this resolution.

OOC: You wouldn't have been able to tell I've just got back from a Model UN conference at all.

[Anime Daisuki]

I think more C&Cs based on Role play would be good. We should encourage more of it.

[SovietPrussia]

Ananke, have you seen your third option? I wholeheartedly agree we should anstain from this resolution! ;D

[Elite]

Oooh, nice. A RP condemnation.

[The Candy Lane]

interesting... but i dont think the SC should be condemning non-WA nations. although i do like the RP idea..

[Markanite]

I'm going with delegates prerogative

OOC: Uni here!

IC:
The Unibotian Government is shocked and dismayed that you believe any cultural or economic difference (GT has an economy rating of 'good') could be enough to justify servitude or human trafficking -- both being banned concepts in the WA -- GA#23 explicitly states that member nations have the right and duty to attempt to combat slavery regardless of if it is non-member nations conducting the slavery.

Show some compassion for these sixty-six million, tortured souls.

Thank you,
Unibot

IC: The Attica Peoples firmly believe that the trading of slaves falls under economic conditions, as it understands slaves to be legal tender. For this reason, CONDEMN is the only choice
OOC: I don't think we can allow ourselves to even RP allowing slavery in any form, it could be a slippery slope

[Ananke II]
