Amendment to the Nuclear Proliferation Act 2009
-
The seat should not be politicized. To restate a point I raised in an earlier debate, Triumvirate nations held most of the seats for something like 13 years, but not once in all that time did anyone object to that or even express concerns about neutrality. And Triumvirate nations held far more military power than current alliances in the EU. If that arrangement was not concerning, why would a Telum nation be? And why is it being politicized in the first place? Inimicus is clearly senior to Fremet. Taking a junior nuclear power over a senior one needs serious, non-political justifications.
Wesley Greene
Councillor of the Duxburian Union -
There exists no reason to remove Icholasen from the ENAA, although the Democratic Republic of Czech Slavia sees rewording of the act, as proposed by Councillor Tilkanas, as necessary. The Democratic Republic of Czech Slavia is ready to consider expanding the permanent membership status in the ENAA to Inimicus, but only if permanent membership status is not removed from any state. That has been our position previously and it will remain our position.
Václav Kohout
Councillor for Czech Slavia -
Cllr Mizrachi-Roscoe's statement is a display of his partisanship and narrow-minded politics-based thinking rather than the Inimician government's. He will know, as much as everyone in this Council knows, that the Inimician government is not Reitzmag or the Duchies. The Inimician government and the individuals it has sent to the European stage have a proven track record of fair and decent evaluation of legal and political matters -- simply look at Inimician Chief Justice Benjamin Steyn's term at the head of the ECoJ, or the various important contributions my predecessors and I have made in this Council. I stated it before, and will state it again: Inimicus would not, in any way, selectively block ENAA applications based on alliance structures. Doing such would not only be petty, childish, and stupid, but would also damage the credibility a body like the ENAA needs.
Cllr Kahout raises an interesting point, although I suspect simply adding another nation to the ENAA membership was not the purpose of this Amendment, or indeed the Amendment raised by Cllr Yahontov earlier. Nevertheless, should more Councillors voice support for this strategy, I shall propose an amendment accordingly.
