Liberal objections to the Incan response:
1. The increased grasping of the Incan government has been noted. The initial Incan peace proposal contained no mention of reparations. When the Celtonian government offered in-kind reparations to the Incan government and direct payments to the Mayan government for land cession, the response from the Incan government both reduced the land cession and increased the demanded reparations, which were offered out of charity for the poverty and desolation of the backwards fascist powers.
2. The Celtonian government has no official relationship with Molde and Arequipa, so we believe their inclusion as “Celtonian proxies” is deeply insulting to these nations’ sovereignty. We suggested Arequipa so that an Andean nation with similar culture might participate in the peace process. In principle we would not object to Hatti overseeing a plebiscite, but express concern that Hatti may not have expertise with managing large-scale elections.
3. Ethnically Portuguese areas in the Tulum Strip must participate in the Portuguese plebiscite. The vicious and barbaric Mayan broadening of the conflict means that their nation must also pay for the vast scorched earth human rights abuses inflicted on the innocent Portuguese people.
4. The fascist powers cynically hold no expectation of bringing any of their troops or officials to justice for human rights violations, but this is hardly to be found surprising.
Conclusion:
The constant arrogance, brittle inflexibility, and rigid obsession with positional advantage of the Cuzco clique has led to an incremental destruction of the Incan Nation, to the point where they seem to think they can dictate terms while their nation has already been cut in half.
Truly the Incan people are in the grip of an insane cult whose deranged mentality can only be corrected with force.
Celtonia announces that it has the majority of the Iroquois battle fleet blockaded in Chichen Itza after the Iroquois attempted to send large numbers of advanced tanks to Maya to escalate the conflict, again. This intervention, while outrageous, cannot be repeated due to the current circumstances on the battlefield.
The fascist peace proposals fail to acknowledge their imminent defeat if the war continues, and as such, the conflict must, regrettably, continue until total victory for the free peoples of Tetraea is achieved.
As such, the negotiations are concluded, and the government votes for the continuation of the special military operation until such time as the Incan and Mayan governments are more inclined to accept rational peace terms.
We believe in coming years their governments may find rejecting this treaty to be a woeful decision, in light of what the next treaty will look like.
Incan Response to Objections.
1) The original incan proposal did not impose demands on the internal constitution of the Incan State. It is only meet given a) the Celtonian side offered reparations in kind in its proposal b) the Maya requested recompense for their part and were like the Inca the victim of unprovoked Celtonian attacks on their territory and c) the Inca are prepared to acquiesce to grant special privileges to minority groups, that suitable recompense is accounted for. Such recompense would also favourably advance the humanitarian situation for the numerous innocent civilians who have been displaced by Celtonian imperialism, civilians whose wellbeing Celtonia has publicly expressed concern for.
2) The Inca are prepared to compromise by having observers from both Hatti and Molde. Arequipa's Celtonian backing and alliance with Holland are well known and thus its impartiality as an observer is questionable even as presenting these geopolitical facts is no statement on Arequipa's sovereign capacity. It is the Incan States simple desire in rejecting observers from Arequipa and other states to ensure that a Portuguese plebiscite is free from any possible taint of bias by ensuring observing powers are undisputably neutral, and that the free and unfettered will of the people of Portugal is able to be clearly made known.
3) It was the Celtonian side which broadened the conflict by invading Incan territory in the full knowledge of the Inca-Maya defensive pact. The Maya simply fulfilled their obligations to the Inca to the letter, entering into armed conflict in Portugal only after the Celtonian invasion. If Celtonia considers the Maya liable for the subsequent horrors of war, then Celtic liability is by far the greater as the instigator of their intervention and thus the request for reparations in return for accepting Incan constitutional amendment (see 1), to be used to reconstruct the nation after the horrors of celtic invasion is entirely appropriate (again, given the additional demand requested by Celtonia and accepted in-principle by the Inca, as well as the Maya demand for reparation). It is noted that the per-annum expenditure requested of Celtonia is only ($1) higher than Celtonia's own proposed reparations to the Maya, albeit with a greater sum total paid over a greater span of time. We further note that previous demands for an independent Portugal from Celtonia made no demands of Maya territory, to insist upon the Maya Empire ceding their territory including the Empire's oil fields is a further escalation and "grasping" on the part of the Celts even from its own demand earlier this year, and as previously noted is in violation of the principles of self-determination and sovereignty Celtonia professes to pursue.
4) The Inca sedulously upheld the laws of war as it conducted the defense of the nation, nonetheless we are prepared to publicly trial any accused of war crimes under Incan law under equal and reciprocal terms to those requested of the Celtonian side should Celtonia accept our amended peace proposal (with subsequent amendments vis a vis trying criminals, and observers).
-
We fear, given the histrionic rhetoric of the Celtonian side (so reminiscent of the former Conservative government) that it has no desire for peace or upholding the ardent will of the Celtonian electorate. The Incan side, as observed in the resolution of the conflict with Rome under the eponymous Pact and in its willingness to compromise has been entirely flexible and open to the prospects of peace. It is Celtonia, which has at every turn escalated and aggravated conflict, which has been inflexible and dogmatic. This is evident first in it meddling in the internal affairs of the Inca nation with respect to Portugal (A domestic matter, given the suppression of rebellion is an entirely legitimate activity of sovereign states), secondly with its institution of an illegal blockade, with it scuttling peace plans acceptable to the Portuguese not once but twice, with it invading Incan territory in an undeclared war without the mandate of the Aonach first within the limits of the Portuguese area of dispute and then into undisputedly Incan territory, by it expanding the field of conflict by attacking Maya territory and the Iroqouis fleet during the course of its war with the Inca and now by its unwillingness to negotiate with respect to peace.
We urge the new Consail to reconsider Celtonia's position and give peace a chance, following its democratic mandate.
