Lord Damien Report post Posted October 8, 2009 As Minister of Foreign Affairs for the North Atlantic Defense Coalition, I’m proud to announce the re-signing of our treaty with Echelon. They have been some of the best friends anyone could ask for and we look forward to continuing that friendship. NADC-Echelon Mutual Defense and optional Aggression Pact Preamble: The Parties to this Treaty reaffirm their faith in the purposes and principles of freedom, justice and sovereignty and are resolved to unite their efforts for collective defense and preservation of peace and security. Hence they solemnly agree to enter into this Mutual Defense and optional Aggression Pact. Chapter One: Purpose and Principles The signatories of these Declarations hereby commit themselves as independent Alliances to a promise of friendship, non-aggression, and mutual defense as stated in the following Articles. Chapter Two: Non-Aggression Article I All members of North Atlantic Defense Coalition and Echelon enter into a commitment of peace towards each other. No nation of either Alliance shall declare war with the intention to attack, commit any form of aggressive assault, threaten or abuse members in public or private channels or commit espionage against each other. Both alliances agree not to assist an enemy of either Alliance through military or financial means during periods of alliance level conflict. Article II The leaders of both Parties agree that if one of their Members violates Article I by aggressive assault, this attack will be condemned within 24 hours notice of it occurring. The member attacked shall not to retaliate during this 24-hour period, to allow for the appropriate diplomatic talks. The leaders of both Alliances agree that if one of their members violates Article I, then reparations shall be paid at the minimal value of 125% of the damage caused. Article III The leaders of both signatory Alliances agree that if one of their members violates Article I of the Second Declaration by permitting attacks, threatening or abusing members in public or private channels, committing espionage and/or assisting an enemy of either Alliance through military or financial aid; then this attack will be condemned within 24 hours notice of it occurring. The member responsible shall be punished according to his or her Alliance's Charter. Chapter Three: Mutual Defense In the signing of this pact, both sides agree to defend and aid one another in times of war when requested by the other signatory alliance. Should either of the signatory alliances be attacked by another power, the other is required to come to its assistance with its full strength and resources. To request assistance in a time of war, the alliance which is in need must first send a request to the other signatory alliance. That alliance then has 48 hours, or two days, to fully prepare for the shift from peace to war for maximum war efficiency. If one alliance commits a warranted act of aggression and requests assistance from the other signatory alliance, that alliance is not required to grant the request. However, the other signatory is still highly encouraged to offer their assistance. Let it be known that this treaty provides all signatories with full legal justification to enter a conflict that concerns the other, if they so choose. Chapter Four: Respect All Members of either Party hereby agree to conduct themselves with civility, maturity and diplomacy in all communications including public and private channels. At all times members honor the spirit of peace and prosperity between the Parties. In case disputes on matters directly affecting them should arise, especially disputes likely to disturb peace and harmony, they shall refrain from the threat or use of force and shall at all times settle such disputes among themselves through friendly negotiations. Chapter Five: Intelligence If either Party receives sensitive information regarding the other Party, they agree to share said information and the source of it with the intent to protect the security and honor of both Signatories. Chapter Six: External Treaties In the event of conflict arousal with external alliance agreements that interfere with this agreement, it shall remain active, and those conflicts shall be resolved on a case-by-case basis. Chapter Seven: Treaty Cancellation If either Signatory Alliance wishes to cancel the Treaty at anytime, they agree to provide 48 hours notice to the other Alliance. During that time, both Alliances agree to hold diplomatic discussions with the intent of maintaining the treaty. There shall be a 24 hour period of peace once the cancellation is announced.
