CFC Model UN - Security Council Simulation

Finally, some rules to keep the flow of the game going. :) Good job.
 
Thanks for the support, cgannon and hbdragon. There was also another thought that occured to me during dinner 5 minutes ago. It was that... ack! Forgot it! Brain fart!
 
That will be incorporated to the rules.

Muchas Gracias, Noldodan!

Another suggestion: we do have an excess of players at the moment. Perhaps we could double them up on the country of their choice? That way, if Insurgent or Jason still wanted to, they could collaborate with their fellow delegate(s), and make up how they want to run their delegation.
 
Well, Civanators time limit was up, so the chair has moved the Russian delegation to the bottom of the speaking list and recognizes the esteemed delegate of Mexico as the next speaker.
 
Watch out, Toasty's next post is going to be LARGE. ;)

EDIT: I just noticed this: my name is mispelled in the country list. You're about the twentieth person to spell it that way.
 
Mexico believes that North Korea's illegitimate start of it's Nuclear Weapons program needs to be punished as accorded in the treaties signed between them and the United States--in particular, the statement of June 11, 1993, stating that the DPRK would discontinue the production and research of nuclear weapons.

North Korea has also withdrawn from the Nuclear non-Proliferation Treaty. Said head of the IAEA, Mohammed ElBaradei:

"I am authorized to inform you hereby that the Government of the Democratic Peoples Republic of Korea has decided ... to lift the moratorium on the effectuation of its withdrawal from the NPT [non-Proliferiation Treaty], unilaterally observed by the DPRK thus far under the DPRK-US Joint Statement of June 11, 1993, and that its decision to withdraw from the NPT will come into effect from Jan. 11, 2003."

The DPRK is one of an extreme minority of nations uninvolved and unadhering to the non-proliferiation treaty. North Korea's open conflict with its own statements, saying that they are both developing nuclear weapons and not developing said weapons causes any words of good faith from the DPRK gov't to be taken with much more than a grain of salt.

Coinciding with the conficting statements issued by the DPRK is its belligerently anti-American, and anti-South Korean foreign policy as evidenced by gun battles by North and South Korean gunships on June 29, 2002, the selling of SCUD missles to a traditionally unfreindly Yemeni gov't, taking hostages from the U.S.S. Pueblo in the 1968, and the Korean War from 1950-53.

The DPRK currently has in its posession 3 different types of missles with which to deliver a nuclear payload: No Dong 1, Taepo Dong 1, and Taepo Dong 2. The most powerful of these missles is the Taepo Dong 2, with a maximum range of 2,896 km. This is enough to effectively reach all of the cities in South Korea, all of Japan except for some obscure islands to the South, Vladivostok, and the greater part of Chinese Manchuria, including Beijing. There is limited information avaliable on the subject, however it is rumored that within 8 years the DPRK will be able to encompass almost all American cities West of the Mississippi. In 5 years, it is rumored that such major cities as Seattle and San Fancisco on the Western seabord will come within range of the North Korean missiles.

The DPRK controlling nuclear weapons gives a green light to Japan and South Korea to make nuclear weapons, meaning that 5 powers in the area will be able to deliver nuclear weapons to their neighbors, effectively ending the Russo-Chinese nuclear monopoly in the region and introducing the most devastating weapon known to man into one of the most unstable enviornments known to man.

Resolution 1a offers no solutions to any of these problems, allowing the DPRK to develop and create nuclear weapons, which it has shown intent to do so and how it will use them as blackmail not only to the U.S. but also their allies and friends, including Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Thailand, and Australia, who will be within the vicinity of the nuclear weapons, be it now, 3, 5, 8, or 12 years.

The North Korean government must be dealt with strictly and harshly to ensure the security of the entire Pacific Rim.
 
Hoo, that was a doosy...

The chair recognizes the esteemed delegate of Syria as the next speaker.
 
The delegate of China would like to respond Mexico's delegate about his unsupported attacks on China's resolution and North Korea itself.

The main assumption of Mexico's delegate is that North Korea will not act in a positive way during the talks, nor will they respond to any pressure but military pressure. This assumption is false and dangerous. As North Korea's willingness to engage in political talks have shown, their regime is not as "unstable" as many people, including the ambassador from Mexico, assumed. Their regime has been persuing nuclear weapons for reasons unknown to myself. However, the talks that have begun show that their regime will respond to diplomatic pressure. Therefore it is the opinion of China that the diplomatic pressure keep up, or even increase, until further review of North Korea's actions is necessary.

The delegate from China would also like to point out that the delegate of Mexico's citing of North Korea's actions from 1953 and 1968 are frivoulous and irrelevant to the current situation.

(Out of Character: Strange, Toasty, that I would get a communist country and you would get a moderate nation like Mexico, but I end up arguing a point very similar to my own beliefs. :ack: )

All part of the fun ;).

Mexico is on the speaking list as opposed to using a right of return, and will speak after Russia.
 
Indeed. I have AnarchyRulz on my buddylist, so I'll IM him as soon as a I see him on.

Should we shorten the waiting time to "one hour" :lol:?
 
W00T! Model UN flame war!

:p I just enjoyed using the word frivoulous. This is possibly the only place on CFC I can flame without hurting feelings. ;)
 
One hour is a little extreme....maybe 6? Or maybe one hour wait times between certain times of the day?
 
I think that 6 is good. However, if the 6 hours overlaps 12 a.m. EST, then you will be given 12 hours to respond. Sound good?

I'm currently freezing sign-ups for the speaking list, as missing a speech would knock you down to 8th person to speak :eek:, quite a drop for being a little late.
