Anne-Mette Vilhelmsen, Kazulian Ambassador to the World CongressI would like to begin my statement by informing the international community, that following the announcement that he would be moving to enter peaceful negotiations on mutual terms, the Kingdom of Kazulia has announced that it intends on meeting with General Rang Yong-Ho to see a resolution to the conflict. It is important to note that Kazulia hopes to bring together the forces of the Keobi, Huhoa and Kyo Forces underneath one roof to discuss a holistic peace agreement and to pave the way for a future whereby persons regardless of race, gender or religion can settle and live in North Dovani in unison with each other.
I'd like to address some of the statements made by other delegations, particularly the statements coming from the representative from Vanuku. I remind this august chamber that in September 4418, the Vanukean Government detonated a nuclear bomb in Jelbania in retaliation to advancing Deltarian troops, thus resulting in an ensuing fallout. In the midst the conundrum, the Vanukean Government now cornered by the international community attempted to scrub itself clean of responsibility for both the destruction brought about by the detonation of the nuclear weapon and the resulting fallout by stating that it had been the "action of a rogue Prime Minister". Having exited the conflict against Deltaria (which it fought on Jelbania soil) the Vanukean Government moved to divide the nation (Jelbania) into zones of influence: A zone to Vanuku and a zone to Deltaria. No room for recovery at the hands of the Vanukean/Deltarian administrations that governed over Jelbania for the prolonged period. No walking away from these actions, these were actions of the Vanukean Government which now portrays itself as the champion of global freedom. I remind the Vanukean delegation who more comes into this august chamber that this was simply the first instance. In January 4637, the Vanukean Government launched a conflict against Deltaria. At the conflict's end, we were greeted to a carbon-copy of the nation's policy of conflict without reconstruction/rehabilitation. Did the Vanukean Government allocate resources for the reconstruction of Jelbania, the nation which it prefers to fight the majority of its extra-national wars in? Of course not, this would not be in line with the track record the Vanukean Government has established for itself.
Then the Vanukean delegation comes into this place and says: "Kazulia has shown in the past that it would do everything to protect its dubious national interests over the backs of millions in terra. Kazulia should not have invaded Northern Dovani and it should withdraw. Immediately". Could I indicate to the Vanukean delegation that Kazulia's conflicts have all been against nations/entities who pose a direct threat to its existence? More than anytime in recent history Kazulia's destiny is not of our own choosing. We do not seek more do we provoke an assault on our freedom and existence. We do not invite confrontations with evil. The Kingdom of Kazulia, unlike many states represented in this August Chamber, has fought more conflicts in defence its very existence as the outpost of stability and democracy in an ocean of uncertainty. Unlike many of the nations represented here, Kazulia's very existence is threatened time and time again by extra-regional forces and it is the responsibility of the Kazulian Government to ensure that both the Kingdom of Kazulia and its people remain a bastion of hope in a region plagued by centuries of conflict. We do not wage wars for influence, unlike many states, for our battles are waged in the name of self-preservation.
The Vanukean delegation has become keen on walking into this august chamber and giving Kazulia lectures on what we should take responsibility for. Can anybody remind me whether the Vanukean Government has taken responsibility for the countless suffering of the Jelbanian people underneath their pseudo-occupation administration? Could anyone remind me as to whether the Vanukean Government has willingly taken responsibility for rebuilding Jelbania after waging countless conflicts in that sovereign nation? No, the very fact that the Vanukean Government had to be asked to help remove landmines leftover from its latest conflict and to provide financial assistance from officials at the Kazulian Developmental Assistance Agency speaks levels to the "responsibility" the Vanukean delegation purports to possess. Big on lectures of responsibility, very light on accepting responsibility themselves. Unlike the Vanukean Government, the Kazulian Government has a proven track record of working in the interest of global development. After the Dovanian War which ended in November 4436, the Kazulian and Hutorian Governments in recognising the importance of reconstructing and initiating social mobility for all Dovanians, launched the 1 Trillion dollars Bortnem-Pomerleau Initiative, outlining an ambitious plan to rebuild the Dovanian continent and push many of the nations devastated by the conflict into relative independence on foreign aid. The Kazulian Government has done more for global development than many of the nations represented in this chamber. The record will show that the efforts of the Kazulian, Hutorian and Dorvish governments were a success because the Vanukean Government, after briefing waking up from its hypocrisy opted to mirror the success of the Bortnem-Pomerleau Initiative under the Kazulian Developmental Assistance Agency-crafted Majatran Development Programme. The MDP was piloted by the Vanukean Government who lost interest in the programme and failed to secure Istalian assistance, having opted distance Kazulia from the programme. Decades posterior, the Kazulian Developmental Assistance Agency returned with the intention to assist the Jelbanian Government in real reconstruction, a reconstruction which is currently on-going. But the Kingdom of Kazulia is an aggressive nation hell-bent on securing dubious claims?
I remind this August Chamber, that even though this nation was attacked by Hulstria and Dankuk on numerous occasions, the Kazulian Government setting differences aside still came to the aid of these nations in their reconstruction efforts. I draw the inference of Eljang and Reunii. Underneath a Kazulian administrated (Trigunia/Lourennais supervised) civil administration, the Kazulian Government moved to transform Eljang and Reunii into an economically inclusive state, nor inclusive than some of the nations who parade themselves as "modern economies". The statement of the Vanukean delegation are vexatious and frivolous and the Kingdom of Kazulia condemns them in the strongest manner, and no doubt we will continue to condemn their statements in the future. Because if the recent comments of the Vanukean delegation was an exhibition of its new foreign policy, I don't think we have much to look forward to in terms of change. What the Kingdom of Kazulia will not accept is the Vanukean delegation coming into these chambers and peddling a double standard. Peddling a double standard the Vanukean Government has never set for itself and this is why the Kazulian delegation believes that the Vanukean delegation should not be taken seriously. The Kingdom of Kazulia will work with other nations to achieve a stable and long-lasting agreement. I conclude by stating: The Vanukean delegation should think seriously about the actions of its government thus far because we in the international community are entitled to a better standard than the Vanukean delegation.
