UAN General Assembly
Geneva

Representative Balakshin: Esteemed representatives, while the amendment proposed by the Soviet delegation appears to serve as a "fail-safe" against a hypothetical Eurasian military invasion with the purpose of preserving peace between the two nations, it is in reality, a mere tool by which the Kremlin seeks to legitimize its current official positions as they were previously stated by both their Foreign Affairs and Interior Ministries.

- Official statement released by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the USSR - "Claims in the East"

- Official policy of the Ministry of Interior of the USSR - "On the Citizenship of Eurasian Inhabitants"

Based on those official statements, we can now clarify the true stance of the delegation headed by Representative Federov. According to the Government of the Soviet Union, all of Eurasia is officially a part of their country, and all Eurasian citizens are Soviet citizens.

Hence, if Amendment #2 were to successfully obtain approval from this body, the UAN would be in official recognition of the stance that the Eurasian Union is not a nation independent from the Soviet Union, but rather an extension of it.

In that regard, if the final resolution draft were to include Amendment #2, the Soviet Union would immediately trigger an aggresive response against the Government of the Eurasian Union with the objective of forcibly seizing control of our institutions and territory, as they would be seemingly legitimized by the words of Amendment #2 and their own official stance. Essentially, it would act as a different way in which Annex 2 of the resolution currently in debate could be unknowingly approved.

As such, the Eurasian Union opposes the approval of Amendment #2, as it could have terrible implications for the immediate future of our country. But on consideration of the cooperative and peaceful spirit of this body, this delegation proposes to replace Amendment #2 as was put forward by the Soviet delegation, with the following draft, provisionally named Amendment #2.1:

• The Eurasian Union, upon the enactment of either one of the Annexes of [the final Resolution], namely Annex 1 or Annex 2, hereby commits to the signature of an official document before the UAN General Assembly, by which the Eurasian Government will establish a Non-Aggression Clause with the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, following a previous reestablishment of official diplomatic state-to-state ties or state-to-polity ties between the two countries, in the event of the adoption of Annex 1 or Annex 2, respectively.

On a different note, we are appalled by the attempt of ignoring the facts on the ground, that Amendment #3 seems to indicate. A single, joint referendum is inadmissible, as the fates of two different, independent nations cannot and should not be decided by a single, unified vote. Moreover, such action, if it were to be approved as intended by the Soviet Union, would inevitably result in the outright annexation of the Eurasian Union using a clearly unbalanced and biased result as a façade of "democracy".

Considering the population distribution of the pre-1991 Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic, the Soviet controlled portion of that territory concentrates nearly 75% of the total population of that former constituent republic. Obviously, a unified referendum would result in a forced victory of a hypothetical Pro-Soviet space, effectively annulling through sheer force of numbers all free and fair democractic processes undertaken by the Eurasian People since their independence in 1991.

That is why the Eurasian Union opposes the current version of the proposed Amendment #3, while simultaneously proposing a new draft of it, provisionally named Amendment #3.1:

• [Resolves that] the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics and the Eurasian Union, upon the enactment of either one of the Annexes of [the final Resolution], namely Annex 1 or Annex 2, hereby commit to holding two separate referendums.

  - A free and democratic referendum, to take place in the current territory of the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic (RSFSR), of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR)

  - A free and democratic referendum, to take place in the Siberian Republic (SR), of the Eurasian Union (EU).

  With the aim of understanding the will of all citizens, older than 18 years of age, inhabiting the territories located within the political borders of the pre-1991 Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic (RSFSR), so that both Governments can act in accordance to the popular votes, and thereby negotiate a comprehensive and sensible approach that will allow a final, diplomatic resolution of the Eurasian-Soviet crisis, for the continued preservation of inter-ethnic coexistence and peace in both nations.

On a final note, the Eurasian Union reiterates its gratitude to the different delegations that have voted previously in favor of Amendment #1. Thank you for attention.

_{UAN: Discussion of Resolution Amendments}

Geneva —

Federov: Interestingly enough, Delegate Balakshin has found some convoluted excuse to oppose the Amendments proposed by the Soviet Delegation. On Amendment 2, this is exactly the same Amendment proposed by the Eurasian Regime. The exact same wording with the exact same intent. If the goal here is of equal treatment why is Soviet territorial integrity not respected? Is the Eurasian Regime planning, with the aid of NATA, an invasion of the Soviet Union? If that is not the case, why is Amendment 2 so controversial?

Amendment 3 seeks to accomplish precisely what many delegations have spoken of: A new referendum to get an updated understanding of the will of the Russian People. Splitting the referendum into two would not only de-legitimize the cultural and historical unity of the Russian people but it would also generate schizophrenic results: If one side votes in favor and the other votes against, or vice versa, then how exactly can "both Governments act in accordance to the popular votes" as the proposed changes state? We would be back to square one with the exact same crisis unsolved. Ultimately, if we want to get an updated understanding of the will of the Russian people, then a joint referendum administered and observed by the UAN would be the best outcome forward. If the issue is of the differences in voting share sizes, then there can be an additional question that only asks the people currently living within the territories of the Eurasian Regime whether or not they would prefer to create an autonomous region within a hypothetical unified Russian State that precisely allows for the continuation of internal political self-determination.

Turco-Bulgarian Ministry of Foreign Affairs:

The government of Turco-Bulgaria initially changed to back a two referendum solution as it believed this would be an ideal compromise between the Cccp- and Sibirskiy soyuz. However, the arguments of disaster it could bring if both received conflict results is too grave to make such a solution viable. Turco-Bulgaria agrees that separate questions could be proposed solely to the Eurasian populace as it is mainly concerning them and whether they wish to unite or stay independent. Turco-Bulgaria would like to propose one of such specific questions that could be asked:

1. Would Eurasia like to remain completely autonomous in internal affairs whether as a separate state or a republic within the USSR? (Whether unified or not this would be meant to assess and protect the self-determination off the currently Eurasian citizens).

Minster of Foreign Affairs

The President has directed me the task of renewing relations within South America and would like to reaffirm joint cooperation's and development with close nations by formal request to sign the Treaty of the South Atlantic and Treaty of Foz do Iguaçu to better improve Gran Colombia's role in South American affairs and create better unity with friendly nations we consider brothers and sisters in Latin America. The president also would like to extend he's gratitude to FEUSSR in its role in the Marshall Plan as well as supplying are military to a capable fighting force with hopes of future mutual cooperation both civil and militarily.

_{Title: Soviet Military Base in Duncay}

Naas — The Soviet Defense Ministry has announced a historic deal in the bilateral relations of the Soviet Union and Duncay. In the interest of preserving the safety and stability of the growing trade relations between both countries, an agreement has been reached giving the Soviet Union the opportunity to lease a military base in the country. Both nations recognize the current value of the trade routes between Duncay and the Soviet Union as well as the future potential growth which can lead to a thriving commercial, bilateral relationship. The Kremlin and Dublino has negotiated a comprehensive lease that takes into consideration the sovereignty of the nation while guaranteeing a certain level of safety for the current trade routes.

Lease Terms

The Soviet Union will open a military installation in the outskirts of Naas, County Kildare.

This military installation will be comprised of an air force base and a missile defense base.

The Soviet Union will pay Duncay USD$10 million per year in rent obligations.

The lease will last for 50 years, with the option of renewal or termination.

In order to guarantee the stability of the lease, there will be a payment obligation of USD$50 billion which will be paid by the party that wishes to voluntarily withdraw/end the lease prematurely.

Such a payment will be made in full to the other party in the lease agreement, immediately after announcing the withdrawal from the lease agreement.

The base will do annual charity projects in the vicinity, the projects will be focused on communal work and repairs as well as maintenance of parks.

Having been signed, the next step of the process is the construction of the military complex near Naas. The air force base will consist of a main runway, with a direction 06/24 and a length of 2,750 metres (9,022 ft). The surface of the runway will be of asphalt/concrete. The military complex will have barracks sufficient to house 5,000 personnel (including soldiers, maintenance crews, etc.) Additionally, the base will have the necessary installations to maintain and repair aircraft, a complete tower control, radar and communication systems and a fueling facility for aircraft and ground vehicles. Finally, the base will have the installations necessary to house S-400 and S-500 systems as well as R-36 ICBM systems. This section of the base is still in the design process and will not be completed along with the first section but rather in a second stage development. The total cost of construction for the first stage is expected to be USD$300 million to be covered by the Soviet Defense Ministry, it will take 1.5 years to build.

Formal Complaint and Motion of Concern

The Kalmar Union, on behalf of our allies, is acting on the following information, and filing a formal complaint against the USSR (Cccp-) and lodging a statement of extreme concern.

UAN General Assembly, Geneva

The motion of concern lodged by The-kalmar-union demands an explanation from representatives of Cccp- for collated satellite imagery which is indicative of troop movements near the frontier to Azerbaijian.

The Chair, having heard the motion and complaint, considering that the matter of armed conflict should not be lightly trifled with; requests the Cccp- provide the United Assembly of Nations with answers; and furthermore mentions to The-kalmar-union, and to all Member States, that all have the option to call for the establishment of a committee of inquiry to monitor and scrutinize current affairs if they so wish under a majority decision.

_{Presidium of the Supreme Soviet: The Question over Azerbaijan}

Moscow — The afternoons in Moscow are quite romantic, specially during summer. Summers were the opportunity for many to get a much needed relief from the Russian winter, for couples to go out on picnics, and for the Kremlin to bustle with activity. This last part, however, was not exclusive for the summers.

An urgent video call was scheduled by UAN Delegate Vladimir Federov. Foreign Minister Viktor Sokolov and Defense Minister Sergei Malinovsky, both members of the Presidium, were in the video call. Because of the importance, the video call was encrypted in order to preserve classified information.

Federov: Comrades! Our delegation is struggling in the UAN. We do not expect to win any of the following votes and we are currently being questioned about the mobilization of troops near Azerbaijan. I'm not entirely sure how to proceed and seek the next orders from the Presidium.

Sokolov: Comrade, your Delegation's work at the UAN has been exemplary and heroic. Despite the UAN's obvious monopoly over the body's vote, you have shown resiliency and courage in the face of imperialist oppression. You must continue to engage with the Eurasian Regime - it is imperative that you do.

Federov: But what about the satellite imagery? How can we possibly explain that to the body?

Malinovsky: The satellite imagery was to be expected sooner or later. Amassing such a force without the eyes of others noticing is virtually impossible. You should dismiss it as scheduled military training exercises in the Caspian Region - nothing to worry about just a conventional military operation.

Federov: But what if they don't buy it? I'm not sure how long we can hold that argument before the body begins to grow impatient.

Sokolov: Your work at the UAN has been important. To fabricate a crisis with Eurasia and distract the world while the Red Army is ready to invade - that was the goal from the very beginning. Who in their right mind thinks we are going to attack Eurasia? With Winter approaching? Sokolov laughs
As Sokolov speaks he nods at Malinovsky Your current goal is just to buy time so that the Defense Ministry is ready... Continue to filibuster the process with more amendments and more votes.

Federov: That's understandable but perhaps the debates at the UAN, the Presidiu-

Sokolov: Comrade, the Presidium has decided. The UAN does not govern this country, the Presidium does. Azerbaijan will fall tonight.

Malinovsky: And the Red Army will be ready to catch it..and save it from chaos.

The discussed went over the future diplomatic strategies related to the Eurasian Question and the current votes that are logged at the body's poll system. As the call continued, the Soviet Defense Ministry mobilized the cyber capabilities of the country in order to coordinate with the Red Army. Everything was beginning to fall into place so that the Question over Azerbaijan would not be answered by diplomacy but by might.

_{Cyberwarfare Forces: Beginning of Cyber Attacks against Azerbaijani Infrastructure}

Syktyvkar — On the other side of the country, near the Arctic Circle, a military base unlike any other was bustling with activity like never seen before in the calm, little city. Within the military base, the Soviet Defense Ministry had secretly ordered the mobilization of the Arditi (Ардити), the Cyber Special Forces of the Soviet Union. Their mission was simple: To begin sabotage operations against telecommunication infrastructure in the country, more specifically radio signals and radar coverage. Likewise, the Arditi would focus on taking down internet access across the country by targeting distribution systems and servers.

As the Arditi continue their work, the Ministry will remain in constant communication with the Red Army divisions that were mobilized in the outskirts of Derbent, near the Azerbaijani-Soviet Border. The current operation was filled with complex logistics and careful planning - The world's first use of cyber capabilities within a larger military operation.

_{UAN: Motion of Concern by the Kalmar Delegation}

Geneva —

Federov: Honorable Chair of the United Assembly of Nations, the current motion of concern lodged by the Kalmar Delegation seems to completely ignore a very basic tenant of this body's philosophy: The self-determination and sovereignty of its members. The recent movement of troops, within Russian territory, is scheduled exercises that the Soviet Defense Ministry is conducting as part of a training program that the Ministry has launched in order to test the defensive readiness of our forces. The Kremlin has a right to self-determination and to decide on any military maneuvers within our own territories. Therefore, I respectfully request that the Chair archives this motion as it does not serve any useful purpose for the current agenda of the body.

UAN Delegate Blomquist

“I would like to state for the record, and to the honorable delegate Federov, that in our motion we did state our awareness of self-determination and the rights of nations to conduct military maneuvers how they see fit. The Kalmar Union itself does maneuvers on a daily basis, especially in regards to Gotland.

What we do not do is March them so clearly towards a sovereign border. We do not set up camps, we do not make moves to establish ammo depots and vehicle depots so close to another nations borders. The only reason these exercises, as the USSR calls them, are taking place, are not defensive measures. These are hidden, deliberate, and a classic pretext to invasion.

If these are exercises, when can we, the international community, expect them to end? It’s only a reasonable question as it has caused a stir in the security of the region.”

_{Title: Mobilization of Troops near the Azerbaijani-Soviet Border}

Moscow — The Soviet Defense Ministry has secretly informed the Kremlin that the mobilization of troops near the Azerbaijani Border is near completion. Currently, the Ministry is still working around the clock to set up the appropriate supply lines in order to have appropriate levels of food, medicine and munition in a hypothetical conflict with Azerbaijan.

Pentagon, Office of the Chief of the Joint Staff

Gen. John Abell looked over the reports and orbital images of Soviet movements towards the Azerbaijani border and let out a slight chuckle

"By God they fooled everyone with that little show in the UAN. Make them think they're about to invade Eurasia when they're going south instead. Only a fool marches into Siberia in the dead of winter. Seeing how they were kind enough to inform of this little party, it'd be rude to ruin it but it also presents a good time to see how we can work together in the field. Picking up the phone and punching in the right number, he waited until it picked on the other end

"James, this is Gen. Abell. I want you to get your two of the Seal teams ready for transport to the Soviet Union (Cccp-. We're going to join them for a little camping trip and it's strictly off the books. Two Ranger teams and two Delta teams will also be joining your Seals. Have them gather at Norfolk, the other teams are on the way there now and boarding a C5 transport. Wheel up in 48 hours."

Hearing the response on the other end confirming the order, Abell hung up, returning his gaze at the images and letting out another chuckle.

(This is secret and no one and I mean no one other than myself or the Soviets know this. Any attempt to use this outside of RP for other reasons will not end well)

Communique by the Indonesian Ministry of Defense

It has come to the attention of the Indonesian government that the nation of The soviet raj has released a statement regarding the sinking of all civilian and commerical vessels entering and exiting the Straits of Malacca. The Straits of Malacca fall entirely within Indonesian territorial waters and are as such treated as integral territories of the Republic of Indonesia; the statement released by the Raj's MoFA conflicts directly with previous statements released by the Indonesian Executive Office to protect and guarantee safe travel to all civilian and commercial vessels throughout the Straits of Malacca and across the Indian ocean in order to ensure the territorial sovereignty and integrity of the Indonesian nation through armed neutrality.

Previously, Indonesia has forbade all active belligerents from utilising Indonesian waters to traverse to the active war zone unfolding in the South of Asia, and as such this change of course by New Delhi has been deemed provocative and unacceptable by Jakarta.

The Indonesian Western Fleet has been stationed in and around waters of the Indian Ocean to secure and protect Indonesian territory and interests within the region. Anti-Submarine Warfare methods are being dispatched from Penang, Sibolga, Banda Aceh, Melaka, and Singapura immediately to supplement the already stationed fleet consisting of 13 surface vessels and 4 submarines already stationed in the area.

By direct order of the President of the Republic of Indonesia, all Raj Military Vessels found to be operating within Indonesian territorial waters and by extension exclusive economic zones, will be fired upon immediately and indiscriminately with the intention of complete destruction of Raj assets in order to ensure the national security of Indonesia. Jakarta does not take kindly to New Delhi attempting to bring conflict into Indonesian waters and territory, and will act accordingly to ensure it does not last.

British Crown Commonwealth - The Prime Ministers' Office
_{A statement from the Prime Minister}

"Today I summoned the Ambassador of Duncay Ireland to number 10 Downing Street. I made Her Majesty's' Governments' view on the agreement between Ireland and the Cccp- clear.

Under no circumstances do we accept a Soviet military base on the soil of Ireland this is a threat to British, European and NATA security as well as to Ireland herself.

I gave the ambassador a message that they have 48 hours from 06:00 GMT in which to inform the USSR that they have had a change of heart and that the terms of the deal are cancelled forthwith.

If this does not happen then the following will take place:

• The suspension of the special agreements between Great Britain as set out here

• This includes the visa free movement of people, goods, services and capital

• Defence and economic co-operation

• And importantly the maintaining of sea links including undersea cables.
  

Furthermore. If this deadline passes.

• Irish shipping be blocked from BCC waters, which will have huge impacts on her economy and fishing

• Gas exports to Ireland, which represent ~50% of their gas consumption, will be halted

• Electricity transfer cables will be turned off, around 9% of their consumption

• Ferry services will be stopped, and so their access to Europe via England and Dover / Calais.
  

In addition.

• Any and all USSR supply ships bound for Ireland will be stopped

• We will invoke article A2, A3, and B1 of the NATA Charter

• And we will move that Ireland be ejected from the North Atlantic Treaty Agreement.
  

It is clear that the government of Ireland has lost its mind and is in thrall to the communists. We will not stand for our enemies to have footholds within our friends. I implore Duncay to see sense.
