Taiwanese Empire Announcement

[Ezequiel]

Good day!

Back when the Cochin government agreed to hand the protectorate holdings of Nanning to Taiwan we agreed to a Non-Aggression Pact. Due to recent events, The Taiwanese Empire no longer sees this treaty as a peace agreement and is hereby canceling the Non-Aggression Pact between itself and the Kingdom of Cochin.

We wish the Kingdom of Cochin nothing but luck in its future endeavor.

Nebu.

[king of cochin]

The Kingdom of Cochin is saddened to see this rather sudden and nebulous move by Taiwan. However we accept the cancellation of the Cochin-Taiwan NAP. May we enquire the reasons for this precipitous move?

[Ezequiel]

'The cancellation is due to the possibility of instability within Cochin.'

'The cancellation is due to the possibility of instability within Cochin.'

Instability within Cochin? Whatever made Taiwan arrive at such a conjecture? The Kingdom is stable as always.

[king of cochin]

Considering the instabilities caused by Taiwan's recent adventures in Asia and its unprovoked cancellation of the Non Aggression Pact, the Kingdom of Cochin asks Taiwanese Empire to remove themselves from the area of Cochin Protectorate transferred to their control through the Joint Taiwanese-Cochin Announcement.

The NAP was inherently linked to the land transfer and now with the cancellation of the NAP, the associated land transfer would also have to be rescinded.

We hope Taiwanese Empire would cooperate with this and remove themselves peacefully from the said territory.

[Ezequiel]

You traded the land as part of our agreement, the NAP was only to ensure peace and had nothing to do with the agreement of the land exchange. There was never a clause stating if the NAP was canceled that the land would again return to the KoC.

This land is rightfully ours as you were the one who gave said land out of free will. Our troops are moving back home, as well as the air force and the land formerly under NCE and NTE has been given back to NCE. This is nothing more than Imperialism.

You have agreed to the land exchange yourself willingly with no gun pointed at you, therefore you have no right to claim such land as your own. These people wish to be governed by Taiwan and so they will get.

This land is rightfully ours as you were the one who gave said land out of free will. Our troops are moving back home, as well as the air force and the land formerly under NCE and NTE has been given back to TCE. This is nothing more than Imperialism.

You have agreed to the land exchange yourself willingly with no gun pointed at you, therefore you have no right to claim such land as your own. These people wish to be governed by Taiwan and so they will get.

The land was ceded to Taiwanese Empire as a gesture of goodwill, a goodwill that was destroyed by the cancellation of the Non Aggression Pact. The land transfer was inherently linked to the NAP, the very wording of the treaty says so. True there were no cancellation clauses, but we believe that was a mistake caused by the faults of diplomatic technicians from both our countries.

The land given to you was given out of free will , a transfer to a friendly nation. However Taiwanese Empire through their actions have proven themselves as a clear and present danger to Asian stability and peace. While we do acknowledge your promptness in moving out of the New Chinese Empire, we hope you would oblige us by moving out from the territory we had given you.

The people of that region would wish to be governed by a government that is local to that territory. They would not be wishing any longer to be a colony or a staging post for further aggressions.

The Kingdom of Cochin wishes to reestablish the ceded territory as protectorate area or transfer it to the control of more local governments. We always prefer diplomacy as a tool for statecraft, but we are willing to use other tools as well for achieving our objectives.

'Fine, we will remove from the city of Nanning. So long as the land will revert back to KoC Protectorate and NOT to a KoC territory.

For reference, the land will revert to the following.

Agreed?'

[king of cochin]

This was the land transfer as done under the following agreement.

The Taiwan would withdraw to its original borders. The said territory would once again constitute Cochin Chinese Protectorate under Lhasa Doctrine.

We have records indicating that your map is false, and ours is true. When the Khmer granted this land to us, we put this map in the announcement recorded on this paper(OOC: http://forums.cybernations.net/index.php?showtopic=62325 ).

Our map is the true depiction of Taiwanese territories in the region before us ceding the said territory to you.

OOC: The comparison image is from iatupdate26 and iatupdate27 where the land change had been recorded. So I dont know about your treaty with Khmer, I only know that while you asked for the extra land, iatupdate26 was the CNRP map, and iatupdate27 was the map in which your territories expanded into the present form. I you want to argue that your old territory was wrong, argue with the mapmaker, not me.

[Ezequiel]

OOC: Quang Ninh Province seems to have been labeled wrong, so the land that it has is mine. The map may not be correct, but it was agreed upon and as long as you honor that, I am fine with it.

[king of cochin]

OOC: What has been agreed on was that, iatupdate26 was the map before you got the extra land, and now with you returning that land to my protectorate, you get the original back. Nothing else. If the original map was incorrect you should have cleared it up then, before getting the land from me. I dont know about any Quang Ninh province, I just knew that you showed me an area you wanted, and I gave it to you. Now since you have agreed to give the land back, there need be no confusion.

[king of cochin]

OOC: If you want clarification, this is the map with the territory you wanted that you showed me during the IRC negotiations.

You said the one below the line was your existing territory, and you wanted the one above the line and I gave it to you. If you want further proof, I would also gladly upload the IRC transcripts, from which I just got the links to these pictures.

OOC: Oops!! Double Post,

OOC: I couldn't find that one, but I was looking for it. Yes, that above it is now your again and the one below is still mine. Truly, I don't see a difference in that map and this map.

*PRIVATE TRANSCRIPT*

From: Nebu II

To: Governor of Nanning

SUBJECT: Nanning

Good Day Governor,

The city of Nanning will be transferred back to the KoC. Please move to Cam Pha, make sure all the Taiwanese people in the area that would like to still be under Taiwanese rule do the same.

You have 72 hours to do so.

*END TRANSCRIPT*

'We agree. The land will be transferred over to KoC in 72 hours.'

[king of cochin]

The I Marine Division landed at Fangchenggang soon followed by the II Marine Division. the 72 hours was up and Kingdom of Cochin is once again establishing the Cochin Chinese Protectorate in the Southern Guanxi province that was until 72 hours ago a Taiwanese Empire territory. The AFVs and Sea Dragons were supported by the ten Karachi class missile boats. The I Marine Division started securing the southern borders with Taiwan while the II Marine Division started its route march towards Nanning. The soldiers of the I Marine division also started an adhoc coast guard operation aboard their boats, while being supported by the corvettes CNS Khadga and CNS Katara and the 10 Missile boats.

A unit of RCSF-MARine COMmandoes where meanwhile paradropped over Nanning Airport to secure it and to receive the first of many Halob and Merat transport aircrafts that would soon fly in from Cochin. A S-RECO was meanwhile launched from CNS Malabar to set up reconnaissance over the territory.

The Cochin Chinese Protectorate was thus reestablished under Lhasa Doctrine. The deployments would soon reduce after an administrative framework is established.
