44th Security Council Session

Ms. Wardiyya al-Darwish, Jakanian Permanent Representative to the World Congress:

Of course, the Jakanian government champions diplomacy at all times. Like the many countries who have shown their support for our vision of an international order governed by equality and justice, we believe that the best method for conflict resolution is diplomacy and that it should be preferred whenever possible.

Nonetheless when you have the naval forces of an authoritarian and imperialist regime at your doorstep, it is necessary to respond in kind. The only method to beat a bully is to stand up to them in a unified fashion. Jakania continues to work in close concert with our Majatran allies- including Istalia- to develop a multi-lateral response to Kazulian aggression. But let me repeat once more, Majatra will not tolerate threats from a foreign power any longer.

Mr. Birtan Gozubuyuk, Jakanian Permanent Representative to the World Congress:

The current rules that govern the World Congress specify that non-permanent members have a longer period of time to present their representative to the Security Council than permanent members. Jakania believe this is an unnecessary distinction and proposes to reduce the amount of time for non-permanent members to match that of permanent ones. What do other members think?

The Security Council,

Noting that permanent and non-permanent members have equal responsibility to represent the nations of the world,

Resolves that all members of the Security Council shall have no longer than eighteen months to present their representative to the body before automatically forfeiting their seats.

We fully support the resolution of the Jakanian Representative and would support it if it were brought forward.

[Auditorii]

"The Kingdom is gravely concerned with the outbreak of what appears to be a fully fledged civil war in Keymon, a member of this Security Council. I believe that the representative from Keymon should provide us with the situation in Keymon.

We would also be supportive of efforts to bring equality to the requirements for representatives to the Security Council."

Allesandru Jisepu, Representative of the Kingdom of Keymon to the World Congress

Fellow delegates, I must bring to the attention of this body two major issues: an issue of military aggression and an issue of diplomatic hypocrisy.

The first major issue is the construction of a naval base in Malivia, by the Deltaria Navy. This is a clear attempt to expand the reach of the Deltarian Navy which, as proven through the numerous wars it has directly started, is a threat to Keymon’s national security interests. This naval base sits directly south of Keymon, which is a clear and direct threat to the sovereignty of our nation. The Navy of the Kingdom of Keymon has remained small, not because Keymon wishes to be conquered by a foreign power, but because of the trust we place in our neighbors to respect our sovereignty. But now, the island of Keymon must decide between two options: possible subjugation by Deltarian Naval power or increasing the power of the Keymonite Navy. We do not wish for conflict to spark in our neighborhood, but if a foreign nation builds a naval and air base so close to our nation, we must consider it a direct threat aimed solely at the nation of Keymon. Why doesn’t the Jakanian government demand the same punishments it demanded be placed against Kazulia, for merely sailing naval vessels to an already existing base, for Deltaria, for explicitly building a base to directly threaten Keymon?

The second major issue is wish to discuss is documentation we have received, through sources that we would rather not disclose, of the Jakanian President, Tosun Bayramoglu, urging the recipient country to remove Keymon from its position on the Security Council and instead replace us with Luthori. Now, I don’t know if the delegate can answer this or not, but I do have to question why it is that Jakania wants Keymon removed from the Security Council? In this document, you claim that it’s because Keymon is currently suffering from internal strife, but please elaborate on how that prevents the rightful government of Queen Éva from operating within the Security Council? The short answer is, it doesn’t. However, you merely wish to replace Keymon with a country that you believe you can influence to vote like you. Quite frankly, you could’ve spit in my face and I would’ve perceived that better than this slight against our nation. But what do we expect from the nation screams imperialism at every opportunity, yet utters nary a whimper when genuine threats to a nation's sovereignty are occurring. Why doesn’t Jakania take action against nations that threaten the sovereignty of a militarily weak nation, like Keymon? I think I know why, but my explanation would be far too vulgar for this body. Just know it has something to do with the male reproductive system and the human tongue.

I represent Queen Éva’s government, the fully legitimate government of Keymon. In regards to the situation, Prince Carlu has made an attempt to seize the throne from Queen Éva via military force. Said coup failed and Prince Carlu has since been forced to retreat to Leighstown. The Queen is hoping for a quick end to this war and the capture and execution of the traitor.

Mr. Birtan Gozubuyuk, Jakanian Permanent Representative to the World Congress:

Within the Jakanian system of government, the President is responsible for directing foreign policy objectives and working closely with international partners. As part of his role, the President maintains regular contact with nations across the globe. The view of the Jakanian government is that a country that is unable to enforce the rule of law within their own borders is totally ill-equipped to defend an international order based on peace and security. For this reason, the President contacted many countries to urge them to switch their votes away from Keymon to Luthori, a country which we have disagreed with strongly on international issues in the past but which at least has been able to enforce law and order within their territory.

The Jakanian delegation would have been willing to issue a condemnation of the Deltarian action but obviously such a condemnation would be voted down by the Security Council. In the words of Lourenne, it would be "a tireless crusade against a nation who is doing nothing but aiding a long time ally". According to Kazulia, Deltaria's actions are just the country working with "partners in all region [sic] in accordance with our pre-established treaty agreements". Istalia would respond that the Deltarian action is "supported by agreements between two sovereign nations". The Dorvish delegation would remind us that "we have to respect bilateral and multilateral relations between states". The Hutorians would say that at "no time was international law breached". And of course, the Keymonite representative would repeat his own words that "it has always been the right of all nations to operate within international waters and to station naval vessels in allied waters".

In other words the reason that we have not proposed condemnation of the Deltarian action is that it would be a waste of Security Council time. The results of Resolution 91 have shown very clearly that the Security Council will not take action against aggressive military posturing- even if it threatens regional stability- unless it directly breaches "international law". While we believe strongly that military aggression should be condemned wherever it manifests, we are pragmatists and will not waste Security Council time on draft resolutions that it is clear will fail.

Valerie Laupin, Lourennais Royal Ambassador to the World Congress:

Representative Gozubuyuk,

Your explanation on your thoughts clearly presents the issue in the Security Council at moment. This chamber is too busy yelling imepralism and worrying about the internal affairs of others that we ignore the purpose of the Security Council. There is nothing pragmatic to that.

This is a clear example of Jakania's true intentions, to undermine members of the council, who were democratically elected. Why must Kazulia go through the process of explaining their reasons for sending a fleet to Kalopia when they are only complying and acknowledging an international commitment? I thought the members of the Security Council were against interfering in affairs of different nations?

Furthermore, if Kazulia must answer to the Security Council and the General Assembly for commitment to a treaty, then every nation must do it. But yes, you are right Mr. Gozubuyuk, it would be a waste of time in this assembly. So let me ask, why was it done in the first place when Kazulia's intensions were made clear? Is regional stability only of matter in Majatra?

Perhaps it isn't about regional stability or sovereignty. It is about advancing Jakania's personal interests within this council. It is disgusting, it is a shame to the international community, a shame to national sovereignty, and most importantly, a stain on this chamber which has been rendered useless because of your actions.

Mr. Birtan Gozubuyuk, Jakanian Permanent Representative to the World Congress:

The Kazulian delegation does an excellent Canrillaise accent.
