The Federal Union believes we should work on passing the protectorate clause.
Also, we submit a name change to the Federal Union of the Slavic Republics.

The Republic of Finland is curious as to the status of the Protectorate Clause. Does it have the votes it needs to pass?

[Bacharth]

The Kingdom of Crimea would like to join PEPTO.

A little about our nation, we've reformed from a very Nordic country to a very Distopyan country, feeling closer to our multi-cultural European roots than anything. We're open to many political points of view and will listen to anything, we also like long walks on the beach.

OOC: Vince Sixx, Is Vince (Your current leader) the same person that was the head of your Spanish country?

[Bacharth]

OOC: Nope

[maicke]

OOC: Thank you.

IC: Valencia sees no problems with Crimea being added to PEPTO, and so therefore we vote yes on their application.

[comrade nikonov]

The FUtSR abstains.

"We would like to note that the Charter has been updated. In addition, the Kingdom of Crimea has achieved membership as per the Five Day clause to the voting rules. We would like to request their signatures for the document."

"I agree completely, European soil must be defended from foreign influence. We cannot allow European lands to fall into the hands of Foreign nations."

[Proxian Empire]

Scotland is very displeased to see Crimea as part of PEPTO.

[comrade nikonov]

We see no danger of Crimea itself falling into the hands of nations far away.
However, we do condemn the Crimea's attack on the Tahoe Republic.
In addition, if the war started by Crimea expands into the vicinities of Europe, we will consider enacting a vote of expulsion to Crimea under the PEPTO charter's clause " If a nation commits a vile act detrimental to Europe while within our ranks".
So far, its actions have not really negatively affected Europe, and as such, we see no reason to do so at the moment.

[maicke]

Valencia wonders about the decision-making skills by Crimea, and agree with the Ferderal Union of the Slavic Republics that there should be a vote for expulsion of Crimea if the war extends to Europe. How they could so easily endanger us all is a mystery to us.

[Kaiser Martens]

The German position on this issue is the following:

(Copied from the other thread)

[quote]Northern Germany, while a PEPTO member, states its decision to remain entirely neutral in this war due to historical friendship between the Nordlandic Community and Tahoe as well as the existing Friendship with not only the Crimeans but also with the rest of PEPTO itself.

"If a peaceful solution is possible, Germany would like to aid it. We have friends in both sides of this conflict and cannot side with one without betraying the other. So, we are siding by both, by offering to host peace talks anytime, be it now, or later. We will hope that this will have a swift resolution with as few civilian deaths as possible, and we will send Civilian Transports to Tahoe in order to allow any Nordlanders there to leave if they desire for the duration of the war. When and if the war progresses, humanitarian aid will be sent to whichever side that needs it - even both at once." [/quote]

[Bacharth]

Official statement from Eli Archer, official Distopyan representative to PEPTO: "The only way this would endanger your nations is if you choose to join. Otherwise, this won't affect you, I promise you that."

[Kaiser Martens]

"I agree with that, too. It is impossible for Tahoe to invade Crimea...count the national waters it'd have to go through first...even by air."

[Bacharth]

"Yes, and even if the war were to change sides where I would be in a defensive position, I would surrender. This is a war to stay on North America, I am hoping."
