Announcement of the European Unity Treaty

[Malatose]

The Governments of Germany, The Dutch Republic and UESR consider it the prerequisite of a lasting peace that every nation in the world shall receive the space to which it is entitled.

The UK watches this with interest, although we congratulates all signatories.

Gebiv watches this treaty's development with interest.

maintain a new order of things

I honestly hope that you stick to "keeping order" in your own nations.

[Subtleknifewielder]

"European Unity, eh? Then why are all these nations ones that opposed Gebiv? Oh, wait, maybe it's because you practically destroyed them all. That's a real good sign of unity."

OOC: In case you can't tell, that's a sarcastic tone... but don;t take it personally. I'm just staying in character.

Before anyone renders judgement about this organization and its members, perhaps you should actually apply and see what happens.

"It's a little hard to apply when one isn't European...or when one no longer exists."

I do not recall any statement where this treaty was open to apply into.

We will wait to see how these nations move towards peace in Europe, but please do not consider many of as being hostile, these nations that have formed this Unity Treaty were many of the aggressors in the past European war. I do hope that they achieve unity, but I also believe that is only possible if all nations in Europe join in this treaty. I am very suspicious of this new pact, but will regard it with a great of salt and hopefully good things will come out of this.

[Justinian the Mighty]

Slavorussia is a little offended by the name “European Unity treaty.“ If it were true to its name all European countries would have been brought together and had the opportunity to join or give input to the proposed treaty.

We read and understood article 1 of this doccument, but we feel the name is greatly misleading nonetheless.

[DeSchaine]

Taeunas agrees with Slavorussia and Gebiv. By our count, there are thirteen nations NOT listed on this piece of paper that, were this a true European Unity Treaty, should be on there. We also note there are no provisions for joining said treaty, nor do the signers appear to have any intrest in it.

To the UFE... we KINDLY ask you to keep your nose out of european affairs. Many remember your wonder puppet the GAE and the recent series of catastrophies it caused.

[Kaiser Martens]

There's more to Europe than just three nations. And the victory of these three nations is not necessarily the victory of Europe as a whole. I find this treaty frankly disturbing.

[Malatose]

**Diplomatic Dispatch**

We welcome all nations of Europe to join the European Unity Treaty. To apply, simply submit your signature, and we will approve them. To reflect this, we will edit the original document.

That is all.

[Kaiser Martens]

That is a lot more reasonable, and I am sure the continent will appreciate the fact that you understood our point, as we do.
