Amendments to the Condemnation of the Coup in Icholasen
-
While I personally find the idea of a one-party state undesirable, it is theoretically possible to have a one-party state alongside a democracy. But factions within the party will have to be freely allowed and the party mechanisms open to the people. Democracies ban parties all the time, including your own country Councilor Roscoe. So freely allowing parties is not a sole criteria for democracy.
Tony Odhinazen
EU Councilor, Ruthund -
I was fortunately able to change the government policy in the Duchies.I agree it went too far but it was a rash response to a crisis of national security , over 3,000 had just died.However we were able to ammend and fix the laws, thankfully the Duchies is now aware of how fast liberty can be lost.

The debate has ended. We will now begin voting on Amendments, listed below:
Amendment I: (Proposed by Interim Cllr Iras Tilkanas)
- In the case that it denuclearizes, ceases hostilities of a military-related nature against member-states of this union, and proves itself, without doubt, to be in general accordance with Article V of the Constitution of the European Union, the Union of Nicoleizian Socialist Republics may be admitted into the European Union as a neutral state under Article VI of the European Constitution. This legislation, as such, is to be treated as, in part, a neutrality motion for the Union of Nicoleizian Socialist Republics, and is subject to the regulations around such motions. The restrictions regarding economic trade with the Union of Nicoleizian Socialist Republics are to be lifted in the case of such an occurrence.
Amendment II: (Proposed by Interim Cllr Iras Tilkanas)
- In the case that it denuclearizes, ceases hostilities of a military-related nature against member-states of this union, and proves itself, without doubt, to be in general accordance with Article V of the Constitution of the European Union, the Union of Nicoleizian Socialist Republics may be admitted into the European Union as a neutral state under Article VI of the European Constitution. This legislation, as such, is to be treated as, in part, a neutrality motion for the Union of Nicoleizian Socialist Republics, and is subject to the regulations around such motions. The neutral status of the Union of Nicoleizian Socialist Republics only enters into effect upon its potential entrance into the European Union.
Amendment III: (Proposed by Cllr Mizrachi-Roscoe)
- In return for membership of the EU and lifting of sanctions the Union of Nicoleizian Socialist Republics is to recognise as legal all parties that existed before the coup in Icholsen and allow them to run in free fair democratic elections monitored by international observers from throughout the EU. The Union of Nicoleizian Socialist Republics is also to allow freedom to campaign to all said parties and allow all Icholsen media to operate within the Union of Nicoleizian Socialist Republics freely and without censorship.
