VigilantWatcher Posted June 11, 2011 Report Share Posted June 11, 2011 (edited) [u][b]To: Novakian Government From: West African Government Re: Treaty [/b][/u] We would like to invite you to our Capital Yaounde to discuss this treaty: [quote] [size="3"][u][b]West African Republic - Novak Optional Defence Pact [/b][/u][/size] [b]Article I: Non-Aggression[/b] The signatories acknowledge that, as friends, they should be respectful of one another, and should they have a disagreement on any issue of serious consequence, to settle it privately, without display, and without resorting to violence. Each pledges to refrain from any act that could be deemed hostile to the other. [b]Article II: Defence[/b] Being friends on the world stage means one should be willing to come to a friend's defence, though at times they may be unable. Therefore the Undersigned agree that should one come under attack, the other is highly encouraged, though not required, to come to the beseiged party's defence. Should the second party opt to do so, they must pursue the defence of the beseiged party with as much effort as they are capable of applying. [b]Article III: Trade[/b] The Undersigned agree that helping in areas other than military defense is also a sign of friendship. In the interests of furthering economic ties, each pledges to reduce tariffs to a favorable degree on products originating in the other nation. [b]Article IV: Travel[/b] It is understood that one cannot truly know your friend unless you spend time with them. Therefore both nations agree to introduce legislation to allow for eased travel between the two, from reducing the time required for visas and exit permits, to actively encouraging cultural exchange programs. [b]Article V: Upgrades[/b] The signatories agree that after a period of six months, they will review the treaty, and if it is acceptable to both, choose to upgrade to a Mutual Defence Pact. [b]Article VI: Cancellation[/b] Should either signatory believe that this treaty is no longer in their best interests, they must deliver notification three days before cancellation of their signature, during which all articles of the treaty will fully remain in effect. [/quote] We hope that this is possible.

I'm not much for small talk, so lets begin." "As to the ODP, we feel something stronger would suit just fine as well. For some time now, Novak has vowed to defend your region from aggressors. We will continue doing that. In return, we'd like to see the same favor towards our borders and lands. For travel, these will be acceptable as long as if it does not interfere with the standard procedure we have had in place for many years.
