The Geneva Accords

[Centurius]

Geneva had historically been a city where people came to conclude peace, however in recent times this role had been minimal. Today this would change. Delegations from Blue Heaven and Great Britain had been welcomed and press agencies across the world had sent reporters. With all parties present the meeting would start, the main part open to the press and somewhere in between a private part only the 3 participants would know about.

[quote][b]Jean-Luc Picard:[/b] Welcome, we have come here today to find an end to this conflict. I hope you all had a pleasant trip?
[b]Roger Smith:[/b] Indeed. How is everyone?
[b]Jean-Luc Picard:[/b] Very well, thank you.
[b]William:[/b] Magistrate Picard, a pleasure to see you again, My trip was... tense
[b]Jean-Luc Picard:[/b] I imagine
[b]William:[/b] Before we start
[b]Jean-Luc Picard:[/b] Okay let us begin with the basic facts, I think we can all agree both parties have been scammed on the matter
[b]William:[/b] You beat me too it Sir. I was just about to say I believe we have been blagged over this entire debacle.
[b]Roger Smith:[/b] Quite scammed Magistrate Picard.
[b]William:[/b] I had better explain myself then Gentlemen.
[b]William:[/b] As your both aware, Britain was attacked several weeks by by a force using highly advanced chemical weaponry. This lead onto a long investigation which lead us here.
[b]William:[/b] However, until the final piece was put with the rest, it didnt make sense.
[b]William:[/b] These "doctered" satellite images from Korea I was given by a certain Mr Pak Ui Chun, Magistrate of Foreign Affairs of the GKF
[b]William:[/b] I will be willing to provide the original images, flight tickets, hair samples, all that forensic and investigative stuff, to clear this mess up.
[b]Jean-Luc Picard:[/b] That evidence would be much appreciated and great in holding those parties who caused this disaster responsible.
[b]Jean-Luc Picard:[/b] That said, what would Blue Heaven seek to end this war mister Smith?
[b]Roger Smith:[/b] What we would need is complete assurance that the government of Britain will not do something like this again.
[b]William:[/b] Now hang on a a Minute Mr Smith.
[b]Jean-Luc Picard:[/b] Please excuse me for asking, but do you mean never attack Blue Heaven again or never attack at all?
[b]William:[/b] Until JUSTICE broke into your Governments computers and stole everything you have.
[b]Roger Smith:[/b] Never attack us again.
[b]William:[/b] The evidence condemned Blue Heaven.
[b]Roger Smith:[/b] The evidence was quite shoddy and flimsy, at best
[b]William:[/b] It was only until AFTER JUSTICE, broke into your computers that your name was cleared.
[b]Roger Smith:[/b] At worst, it was a complete joke.
[b]Jean-Luc Picard:[/b] Please, please, let's not get too worked into the specifics
[b]Jean-Luc Picard:[/b] The parties who faked this evidence will only laugh if we do
[b]Jean-Luc Picard:[/b] Would Great Britain agree to a non-aggression pact?
[b]William:[/b] A complete joke Mr Smith? Did you see it as a joke when Blue Heaven used biological agents on the Commonwealth of Canada?
[b]William:[/b] The UK, will sign a peace treaty with Blue Heaven and aid the the investigation, but we will not sign a NAP. Their past history prooves them too unstable.
[b]Roger Smith:[/b] Usually, what I try to do is that after a war or a problem occurs, I do my best to become friends with that nation, thus I offer my friendship to the nation of Britain.
[b]Jean-Luc Picard:[/b] Well, did you not agree to a non-aggression pact with Ireland at the time to lower tensions?
[b]Jean-Luc Picard:[/b] Would a similar construction be possible here?
[b]William:[/b] You had just signed a treaty with the Commonwealth when you both went to war Mr Smith.
[b]Roger Smith:[/b] Yes, but there was never an investigation of the biological attack,
[b]William:[/b] I wonder why.
[b]William:[/b] Mr Picard, Blue Heaven is innocent and the UK is at fault here. We will sign a peace treaty and pay reparations for the damaged caused by our airstrikes.
[b]William:[/b] Apart from that we will have no reason to interact with Blue Heaven.
[b]Jean-Luc Picard:[/b] While I do appreciate the occasional debate on history, the matter at hand is irrelevant to our current situation. In all honesty a mistake was made, not intentional but it did happen. If this conference would fail this might devolve into a war that kills millions
[b]William:[/b] Other side of the globe and all that.
[b]Jean-Luc Picard:[/b] Is setting aside some pride not worth saving these lives?
[b]Roger Smith:[/b] You are quite right Magistrate Picard.
[b]Roger Smith:[/b] We need to settle this and find out who did this and bring them to justice.
[b]Jean-Luc Picard:[/b] I will give the personal guarantee the Athenian Federation will hunt down those responsible and bring them to justice
[b]Jean-Luc Picard:[/b] But only if this ends in peace
[b]William:[/b] Mr Picard, like I just said. We are at fault, we will sign a peace treaty, pay reparations and aid the investigation. But a NAP is not needed.
[b]Jean-Luc Picard:[/b] Would a non-aggression clause within the peace treaty be agreeable then?
[b]Roger Smith:[/b] We will accept the peace treaty and reparations, if Britain does not want to have a non-aggression pact, that is fine.
[b]William:[/b] There we have it. An agreement.
[b]Jean-Luc Picard:[/b] Perfect.

[b]Jean-Luc Picard:[/b] Then the final subject; Korea.
[b]Jean-Luc Picard:[/b] The evidence seems to suggest they are responsible for this. I propose a joint a declaration of war if we confirm this evidence.
[b]William:[/b] Its standard for members of the Royal family to wear a wire when at a public engagement Mr Picard.
[b]Roger Smith:[/b] I would agree, but unfortunately my nation does not have a navy, thus we would need aid in getting our troops into Korea.
[b]Jean-Luc Picard:[/b] I am sure that can be arranged
[b]Jean-Luc Picard:[/b] Potentially with help from other North American nations
[b]Roger Smith:[/b] I'd be willing to send in the 1st Army, which consists of 10 divisions.
[b]Jean-Luc Picard:[/b] Very well.
[b]William:[/b] Mr Smith dont worry about that, we have a mothball fleet four times the size of our own navy, the UK can spare the merchant marine fleets.
[b]Jean-Luc Picard:[/b] Would Great Britain be willing to send all evidence to Athenian authorities?
[b]Jean-Luc Picard:[/b] for comparison in our systems
[b]William:[/b] Mr Picard, I took the liberty of bringing the recording from the meeting, would you like to listen?
[b]Jean-Luc Picard:[/b] I would indeed, thank you.
-Evidence played-

[color="#FF0000"]-Press allowed back in - No longer classified-[/color]

[b]Jean-Luc Picard:[/b] I thank both sides for finishing this on such good terms and look forward to finding those responsible.
[b]William:[/b] Mr Smith, how much damage did we cause so I can arrange reparations?
[b]Roger Smith:[/b] To repair our radar network, it would cost $25 million.
[b]William:[/b] I will have the Bank of England wire the money on my return to London.
[b]Roger Smith:[/b] Thank you.

Afterwards all evidence provided was analyzed by forensics experts and the CSS to confirm the English story, it was found the recordings were real.

An announcement would be issued by the Magistrate of Foreign Affairs with the other participants beside him.

[quote][center][b]A Joint Declaration from the Athenian Federation, Blue Heaven and the United Kingdom of Great Britain[/b][/center]

Fellow leaders, reporters and the world at large.

Earlier today the world was brough to the brink of war due to the actions of rogue nations, I am pleased to announce this conflict has been resolved. Both Blue Heaven and the United Kingdom have agreed to a peace treaty where repairs are paid to Blue Heaven for the damages done.

That said, in these times we can not tolerate the actions of states that seek to destroy the delicate balance we live in. Evidence provided by the English and confirmed by several organizations within the Athenian system have shown the Greater Korean Federation has forged evidence that caused this war. We stand here together in opposition to this move and call upon the world to join us in bringing justice. The Koreans must be held responsible for their crimes.[/quote]

The Korean Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade released the following transcripts taken during a meeting between Prince William and Korean Minister of Foreign Affairs Pak Ui Chun at the Ryugyong Hotel


[quote]William: "Greetings Minister, it is a pleasure to meet you, I am Prince William, but please, call me Will" he said with a warm smile.


Pak: "What brings the petty islanders to this side of the globe? We consider this visit from a regime that has constantly worked to undermine the freedom of the Korean people to be quite unnatural."


William: "Its not like Korea doesnt undermine Britain either, dont play the victim, we are both at fault.

Things change, regimes change as does policy. The abolishment of the Triumvirate and the re-instating of the Monarchy changed alot of things in Government. My father faced down the Irish, the Scottish and the Slavorussians and the unification of Britain cost him his life in the end. He is considered a great man in Britain, but on the international plains? He was a hot headed and tempermental son of a !@#$%* who more than often let his passion overwhelm his logic and unfortunately, it influenced Britains standing with several nations in a negative fashion, mainly those of the former Empire and those who suffered at the hands of Imperial Britain in one form or another. However, when he unified the Isles, he declared the Windsor Doctrine, which essentially stated Britain would not be expanding outside of its existing territory, we also issued a formal apology for the crimes of Imperial Britain, Im sure you will have recieved a briefing at somepoint in time in regards to it. He also worked tirelessly to bring Britain back to a fully democratic state, something by brother is continuing to work with." Will paused and thought for a second before continuing.

Britains friends are Euro-Centric, we did have close ties to America before Maine went beserk and sent nukes flying the world over. Britain and Asia have never really had strong ties and often, the UK and Korea end up at loggerheads. However, I think we should change that. Doctrines and apologies only achieve so much as far as repairing relations goes so I have a suggestion that has merit. Instead of going at eachother in the diplomatic scene where other nations can interfere, make things worse and all that negative crap they usually try and pull. How about if we come to a disagreement or whatever it is along those lines that we dont agree with, we confer in private and discuss the matters at hand like gentlemen."


Pak: "So basically, you want a gentlemen's truce, where we are supposed to respect each other? That is something I believe we are not ready for just yet. After all, it took diplomatic isolation for you to come to us, has it not? However, perhaps we can work out something informal.....Who do you think is the United Kingdom's most possible enemy in the near future?"


William: "We have strong reasons to believe that the UFE was behind the chemical attack on Britain earlier this year, all the evidence points to them, but without a confirming piece of information we cannot say for certain. And for your information, no it was not diplomatic isolation, it was the simple fact that you hate us, we dislike you, it made more sense to try and fix things with a nation that we know where we stand with. If we know where we stand then we know we can find some sort of arrangment."


Pak: "An arrangement..... Something we can work on, it seems. A business transaction is much more trustworthy than most mere promises. Now, concerning the recent opiate attack on the UK..... We might have something which would be of help to you, but I am not sure if I should discuss it, given the repercussions this might cause. What might you offer for this?"


William: "It would depend entirely on what the information reveals to our investigation. For example if it prooved without a doubt the perpetrator of the attack, we would pay handsomely aswell as other benefits. If it narrowed down the investigation to a particular region of the world? Well I'm sure we could come to an agreement."


Pak: "As I said, this might be of help, given that it is circumstantial evidence. "These were taken by our Space-Based Infrared System over the Kuriles, on an area just barely within sight. As you can see, approximately less than two hour before the United Kingdom was attacked, there were some lights leaving a certain Alaskan base, heading north. Our line of sight was not enough to constantly track them, but given the cirumstances, we are suspicious. I cannot say whether this can be decisive evidence, since the country in question is known to be the one with largest clique in the world, and the activity in the area makes it ideal for the nation to hide things. This is the most I can provide for you.

Now, what would the UK be willing to do for us?"


William: "Those images are from the UFE Base in Alaska, a known military hub with flights coming and going 24 hours a day, 7 days a week Sir. It isnt concrete enough to issue a statement, nor is it legitimate enough to be put down as solid evidence in our investigations. The UFE also already informed us that they had detected strange radar signals over Alaska and had dispatched jets to investigate but the radar signatures had already escaped and were left unidentified. I do believe this rules out UFE involvement to be honest. However, Blue Heaven on the other hand has solid reasons to wanting to attack the UK. Decades ago when Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte of Canda held the Imperial Canadian throne, Blue Heaven and Imperial Canada came very close to open warfare over a border dispute. When the Imperium launched its campaign against several Arctic nations, Blue Heaven siezed the initiative and invaded in an attempt to capture/kill the Imperial family. Either way, to cut a long story short, his daughter, Jessica got married to my brother. She is now the Queen of the United Kingdom Sir." Williams eyes widened as it dawned on him.

Do you think that Blue Heaven could have been behind this attack? With solid evidence? We will seek to elimate Blue Heavens war fighting ability. We will humble them before the world Sir and seek monetary compensation for the thousands of ruined lives."


Pak: "We cannot be certain, but we shall allow you to have these photos. Have a nice time in Pyongyang before you go."[/quote]


*Added Note*


"Nice try, Great Britian, for trying to blame us."



OOC: I just wish to clarify that I had to rewrite this part of the original:

[b]These were taken by our Space-Based Infrared System over the Kuriles, on an area just barely within sight. As you can see, approximately less than two hour before the United Kingdom was attacked, there wre twelve of these strange planes that took off from a certain Alaskan base, heading north. Our line of sight was not enough to constantly track them, but given the cirumstances, we believe that the nation who has the base is the culprit.[/b]

This is because after the final ruling by Cochin, all I could see were some lights rather than actual forms, so I have rewrote the above to fit it with actual RP.

Besides that part, all the rest are reorganized parts of the actual discussion taken.

On the Athenian announcement, the Illustrious battlegroup in the South Atlantic sailed south into the Indian Ocean through International waters. Their orders were to link up with the Greek fleet after they set sail from Cam Ranh Bay. Battlegroups Ark Royal and Swann would set sail once again from the North Atlantic and the North sea towards the Indian Ocean. to hook up with the allied forces.

The first Merchant Marine Fleet would attach itself to the Swann battlegroup carrying the other 10,600 Royal Marines.

[quote][b]Public Statement from HM Government[/b]
We are disgusted at the Korean's response to a genuine outreach of friendship towards Korea. To decieve somebody in such a way is beyond dishonour and we will commit fully to this endeavor against such a deceptive and dishonest foe. As you can see further from their once again doctored piece of evidence.

Their actions cost Great Britain its reputation and its honour by attacking a completly innocent Nation. Ontop of the peace agreement with Blue Heaven we formally apologise to them for the damage and loss of life caused by this miscarriage of justice.

In response to Koreas actions and in accordance with the Geneva Accords, the UNited Kingdom of Great Britain recognises a state of war with Korea.

The Athenian Federation and the United Federation of the East were both notified of the Empire's 10,000 Marines currently stationed near the UFE, ready to be used, and only needing to be transported to Korea to join in the fight. Permission was sent to several Canadian nations (Quebec, Ontario, Manitoba, Ursalia) for permission for Imperial air assets to pass through their airspace on their way to Imperial Military Base: Command Pacific off of Ursalia's west coast. From there, the air assets could be picked up by allied ships, or bunny hop to Korea. (OOC: No response from those nations will be seen as approval.)

The Imperial Missile Corps in Long Island and Florida readied their arsenals. The opening strike would be swift and fierce. 10 HMWC-Thor rockets took off, each carrying five two ton reinforced tungsten rods as payloads. These heavy intercontinental ballistic missiles would take off, traveling in space across the globe towards Korea. Over the Sea of Japan, the rockets would open, distributing their guided payloads towards their targets.

The targets were:
Military positions around Pyongyang: 3 rods
Military positions around North Pyongan: 7 rods
Military positions around Changang: 10 rods
Military positions around Hanka: 10 rods
Military positions around Ryanggang: 8 rods
Military positions around North Hamgyong: 5 rods
Military positions around South Pyongan: 5 rods
Two of the tungsten rods went slightly off course in Seoul, a geographic error made by a Lieutenant in the coordinates. Instead of heading for a military target, both rods shot towards the Seoul Museum.

New Cadia expresses its well-wishes to all those who brought forth peace in this situation, especially the Athenian Federation. We also further find the actions of forgery to beseech war to be more than deplorable and we do hope that the International Community (at large) feels the same.

Across Britain people were told across the Emergency Broadcast channels to head for the Pennine bunker facilities. Army formations across the Nation began mobilising and spreading out across the countryside to minimise casualties should nuclear weapons be used. The NBC suits the Government made every building stock were fast becoming worn as people made their way to the spine of England, the mountains of Scotland and the hills of Wales. The Guards Corps and Royal Coldstream Guards both went to the Pennine bunkers whilst the Duke of Lancasters Corps would prepare for any attack on England. The Scots Guards and Blackwatch look up positions in the Scottish mountains. In Wales, the Welsh Guards were ordered to spread out in Company strength across the province.

Ten of Britains Attack submarines would remain patrolling British Waters, the North sea and Atlantic and Arctic Oceans ensuring no Korean subs could sneak past. RAF helicopters routinely did AWS patrols.

The other 9 attack subs made their way to the Indian Ocean aswell as the five Vanguard missile submarines, each was armed with a variety of chemical and conventional ordinance.

A total force of almost 850 aircraft, 50,000 soldiers + and 1200 tanks would be heading towards East Asia. Reports of the British progress would be sent on the hour to Athenian Command.

In short, the entire Air Force would be ready for action if needed. The nation was moved to DEFCON 2 as the Imperial government moved to impose an blackout on all non-essential communications, and to set in place preparations for mandatory evacuation of non-essential personnels in major Ursalian cities.

To maintain law and order, the Military Executor imposed a nighttime curfew and authorized COMPNOR (the Inquisition and Imperial State Intelligence) to use whatever powers and resources at their disposal to ensure that the internal peace and order within the Empire were upheld.

Likewise, the Military Executor, the third highest position after the Imperator and Grand Vizier, ordered the Imperial Cabinet and their families to relocate to classified locations across the country; he himself would move from Ursalia City to Nadrink to oversee the efforts.

In the meanwhile, the Executor would dispatch a classified message to the Empire of Pravus Ingruo, granting permission for Ingruoian military assets to pass through the country as long they did not pass through the major urban centers. All branches of the Imperial Ursalian Armed Forces would provide protection and cover for Ingruoian assets passing through the country. In turn, the Executor requested permission for Ursalian assets to be deployed to the Imperial Military Base: Command Pacific if needed for deployment to the Pacific.
