OOC: Barmenistan, I am on tour with Emunim. After this I don't know yet, I go where I am invited.

OOC:Are they even ratifiers? It's kind of late, so I can't think clearly. If they are ratifiers, I'll allow you to comment but not vote. If you are not a ratifier, please try to comment only on the important things you know about. Internal stuff is for members only.

OOC: I just looked and no, they've not ratified. Sorry.

We have tried so before and it failed. While we admire the goals of the GPO, we are very worried about its lack of neutrality on issues. Therefore, we will not consider such alliance at this moment. Of course, we will keep cooperating with you and other organizations to ensure peace and security is achieved across Terra.

Sincerely,

Roland Lincoln
Vice President of the United Republics of Lodamun
Chairman of the Council of NATO

With all due respect to the gentleman from the GPO, our methods are not to be questioned. They have worked for us and we will continue using them. Our goal is to use neutrality to promote peace and security throughout Terra. We admire the efforts by the GPO but as you have stated yourself, we have clear disagreements in this issue. Neither your methods nor ours are better than one another, they are simply different.

Thank you,

Roland Lincoln
Vice President of the United Republics of Lodamun
Chairman of the Council of NATO

ATTENTION ALL NATO MEMBERS:

This is a new organizational group that has just being created ( http://classic.particracy.net/vieworgan ... ionid=1995 ).

All members are REQUIRED to join. Updates will be made there instead of here the majority of the time. Only MEMBERS will be allowed to join. Council members MUST join as this will be your main source of information.

Thank you!

The Commonwealth of Rutania started the ratification process of the NATO treaty. We hope that our intention to adhere is welcomed by the NATO member-states.

Lord Klausenburg
President of Rutania

Egelion delegation:

As the oldest NATO member state Egelion expresses concern that this organization is ruled by nation (Lodamun) where constant silencing of opposition occurs.
Among the violations to democracy there are:
Calling for new elections every year, despite electoral term being 6 years. The reason is to get elections before opposition can gain any visibility and explain its point of view to citizens.
Low proposal quotas, the lowest on Terra - so that opposition has no chance to explain or participate in legislation process.
Both of these activities are against the major principle of democracy - competitive elections where everyone has a chance to explain their point of view to the public. Thus ensuring public needs are best served.
When are the next elections for the chairman?

OOC: First of all Opakidabar, keep IC and OOC separated. Visibility is not an IC issue. It's game mechanics. In real life, parties that have been in a country for a long time, have expressed their views already. So, I ask you to refrain from making that kind of statement. If you want to argue against my policies in Lodamun, I don't care. Just do it in a fair way. Second, and most importantly, we discuss these matters at our regular meetings, not here.
